Ben Dislocated Finger During Vikings Game

With this O-Line just be happy that it is a dislocated finger and not something much worse. It won't affect his play at all against the JETS.

 

i still think if we start adams btter start landry jones

 

Bens hurt, thats bad news for the other teams. I smell a 12-4 and people eating a lot of crow.

 

Ben can't hold on to the ball with healthy fingers now one is dislocated.

Well, he at least has an excuse now.

 

I just couldn`t believe his reply in an article I just read about it...
"It won`t affect my throwing the ball."...
Now, I know you can`t expect him to say anything else, but... REALLLY?!?
The first finger on his throwing hand, being dislocated, won`t affect his accuracy at all???
GEEZ...
It got me wondering as to if, the team is just in a state of denial, and actually believes some of the answers they give to the media?
Also, I know it`s off-topic, but I had to laugh, when I read Ike Taylor`s response to the problems the team is having...
"I just can`t get my hands on it...." (he was talking about what was wrong with the team, NOT, the football)...
Think he meant to say "put my finger on it", but the Freudian slip was rather amusing...
Gaaaads, I am just in a state of disbelief, along with the rest of Steeler Nation...
GO STEELERS!!!

 

Did he dislocate it when his and hit the DLs hand? If so, he played more than a quarter after that vs Minn, so I'd think he'd be fine vs the Jets.

Unless he hurt it on the last play......

 

He should be able to overthrow his receivers just fine!

 

Why start Jones? Ben gives us a better chance to win and it isn't like we need to start thinking about saving Ben for the playoffs.

 

WHY start Jones? Bc if Adam starts, hes going to get Ben killed.
