    Where was the great one today? If he played I sure didn't notice him.

    He must not be completely healthy.

    I asked about it in the gameday thread, both he and Coates were not seen until the game was pretty much over. I wonder if they made the choice to go max protect.

    You're just trying to mess with PWP with this thread.

    he wasn't listed in any of the injury reports leading up to the game that I'm aware of.
    Coats played on the first drive and then reinjured his hand. He did come back late.

    No. I just realized he wasn't out there. If I accidentally got a jab at PWP then bonus.

    I did't see him listed either but they ran with three TE's a lot and used Brown in the slot and Hamilton outside. Not sure why we didn't see them try the same stuff that Edelman was doing with Rogers seems like it would have been tailor made for him.

    Who knows? Seems that Cobi Hamilton is making the most of his opputunities though.

    He was active, but had a grand total of zero snaps. With Wheaton out, Brown and Coates, both hobbled at times, you would think they would have called his number. Wonder what the deal is? Who's Cornflakes did he crap in?

    He wasn't listed on any of the practice injury reports last week. Wonder what it is?

    Dave and Dave were talking about this on The Terrible Podcast. He looked to be receiving treatment on the sideline, stretching, etc. If he was hurt during the week and not listed the Steelers face disciplinary action from the league. Perhaps he was hurt in warmups.

    In Ray Filepettdippidaddo's chat, he said he practiced all week. He didn't know why he didn't play and said Eli wasn't in the locker room after the game to ask.

    Hmm :hmm:

    On the broadcast, I'm sure he was listed as the no.2 receiver. I thought it was strange he wasn't out there more as well. Does anyone have a breakdown of the snap breakdown by player?

    Not to mention LaDarius Green. That would essentially give Pittsburgh the conference with a healthy Big Ben.

    Ben talked to Cook and Poni today - said Eli was healthy. When asked why he didn't play, Ben said he has to be "more focused".

    Maybe they just dressed him in case of emergency, because it sounds like he didn't practice well.

    Yep, all Haley needs is Pro Bowl talent at every position and he'll be golden!

    More likely he is having trouble making the leap to real game time experience.

    A quote by Ben says he needs to be more focused.

    I wonder if he's thinking too much about moving to safety.
