Limas Sweed didn’t speak to the media on Wednesday, but did yesterday, and the Tribune Review reports on it today:
A day after declining to speak to reporters, Steelers wide receiver Limas Sweed talked before practice Thursday. He just didn’t say a whole lot about his struggles catching the football, a problem that could get Sweed [...]
A lot of fans (even here on Steelers Gab) are still fuming at the latest drop of WR Limas Sweed, a sure touchdown Sunday that for sure would have put the game away. The ball was right in his hands, and Mike Tomlin was peeved as well with the drop. Now it looks [...]
The word is third WR Limas Sweed, who missed the game Sunday in Chicago, will be back on the practice field Wednesday and should be ready to go for a big early AFC North game in Cincy this Sunday. A foot injury is what kept Sweed out of the game, but he did some [...]
Big Ben spoke out following his 4-of-6 for 33-yard outing vs the Cardinals on Thursday night at Heinz Field:
On the Offense’s performance:
Overall without looking at film, I think it was OK. I think we had a couple plays with few breakdowns, but it just felt good to go against someone other than our own [...]
Ben Roethisberger could have shown up in Latrobe and made excuses for being distracted considering he’s facing a civil lawsuit. Instead, the two-time Super Bowl winning QB made it clear that he’s focused on one thing – playing football and playing winning football in 2009.

Checking out some of the national websites and rumor mills today, and there is one thing that popped out at me that almost made me laugh on ESPN. That one thing was a reader mailing AFC North writer (and really good guy) James Walker about this: Would the Steelers have interest in recently released WR [...]
With an injury to first-round pick Rashard Mendenhall and not much from second-round pick WR Limas Sweed, the Steelers today named linebacker Patrick Bailey, an undrafted player from Duke who was released twice by the Steelers this year, as their rookie of the year.
Bailey was released before the start of the season on August 30th, [...]
The 4th preseason game is usually a snore-fest, and tonight vs the Panthers should be no exception, as both teams simply want to get out of Heinz Field without any major injuries. There is one thing to look for from the Steelers standpoint, and that is the 4th WR spot. The battle remains [...]
After a week that saw a handful of players go down with injuries, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin decided to give his players a break and cancel Thursday morning’s practice session at St. Vincent College.
