speaking of injuries how is David woodley’s hamstring,and should he have surgery like Andre Johnson of the Texans to completly repair it.
I know we (the steelers)do not recrute many players from other teams. But because of our running back injuries do you think to save our season. Should we try to get a player like Steven Jackson from the Rams like we did with Mr. Jarome Beiit 16 years ago.
That was a great gamble back then, and you know we will need a strong RB for the month of December!!

In my 68 years experience on this earth – things (generally speaking) just don’t happen by accident. Key Steelers have been consistently hurt. And, it’s not just a recent thing. This has been on for at least 3 years now. I know it’s a violent game. But, I suspect there is some reason for these consistent unjuries (especially to key pro bowl players) such as: age – inability to quickly heal, losing a split second & thereby taking the blow instead of delivering the blow, conditioning etc. What is your reasoning behind the influx of these consistent injuries? We just can’t seem to get the same 11 guys on either side of the ball for any reasonable length of time.
