    Heard Ben wants to be back for the Cards game. What do you guys think? Too soon? Should they just wait? I would say even with Ben it will be tough so we should wait for the Bengals. I thiink vick can beat Kc which should have us 4-3 worst case, or 5-2 best case for Ben vs the Bungles.

    Also, is Martavis injury worrisome?

    as long as Vick is in injuries to any wide receiver are not worrisome

    If Ben is healthy you play him. If not you sit him until he can go at 100%. Bryant same deal. We are getting enough out of the WR's right now. Problem is either Vick can't see over the line to see the middle of the field or does not look to the middle of the field.

    Ben has a spot on 93.7 The Fan every week. He is working out but his lateral movement is not there yet. He will have the talk tomorrow when practice resumes. I don't think he will play against Zona. But I believe he will be back against KC. That's what I want to see. The Chargers game is the one I wanted to see them win. Zona is going to be tough to beat without Ben. So if they are 3-3 when Ben comes back so be it. A good tune up before the Bungles game which starts a 3 home game stand then a bye. Ben said Bryant and him were catching passes before the game. Bryant was not activated because they were waiting till today to release a player and activate him to the roster is what Tomlin said in his press conference.

    Ben is looking a lot better. But, I doubt he plays against Arizona.
    We can win with Vick, we proven that we can.
    I bet he comes back KC, hopefully he can work through that game and be ready for the Bengals.
    I think Bryant will suit up for sure this week.

    If he's less than 90%, no. Don't play him. We need him for the long haul.

    Sure, we can win with Vick, if the other team sucks that day as well. The chargers are not a very good team, but still, without a pick 6 and several dropped INT's by the chargers, we lose that game.

    If Ben can play without being a statue, get him in. Vick is worse than I ever imagined he could be. I can't figure out why we never grab a half decent backup QB. Lots of other teams have good backups, but we have one of the worst QB's in football

    I heard this on ESPN radio when I was out getting lunch. I really doubt we'll see Ben play this week, and even if he close, I'd rather see him wait until he's closer to 100%.

    I didn't say Vick was winning us games. He isn't costing us games.
    The team is rallying is all departments to pick up the slack of playing with a backup QB.
    Sure he isn't great, but he has gotten the W which is what matters.
    I don't want to see Ben rushed back and be out even longer.

    Big Ben is taking some 7 on 7 snaps today so it sounds like he is getting ready for next week

    man it's just a ploy
    keep BRUCE busy
    then
    KAPOW Jones lights their secondary up for 240 and 2 tds
    while our defense is terrorizing their offense and bruces Kangol gets stomped on

    I would like to see Ben start this week with only the first play. Have Bryant streak and Ben hit him for a long bomb then sit the rest of the game, then play the following week.

    Any chance Bryant had some trouble (with team or not). So they made him wait a game. It seems he is not hurt now at all?
