    It's his nickname and it's easier to type out. Sue me. He's also already proving he's a baller by leading the team in tackles thus far and playing two positions. The Steelers NEVER trade future draft picks but they did for this guy, at the very least that says something about his character, his work ethic and his intangibles. I don't care if he's playing against 2nd team players, 1st team players, 3rd team players whatever. The guy is all over the field, making heavy hits. He's very much a Bob Sanders clone. We'll just have to wait and see if he puts it together in the regular season.

    Yea, like I said....don't go having a premature ejaculation. I think he looks like a good player...but then, so did Mohammed Massaquoi. So, lets wait.

    It would not have bothered me at all if the Browns had taken him. Fans and pundits declared that the Browns needed a FS.

    But, apparently, the Browns FO and coaching staff felt otherwise. They felt, again, apparently, that the position was in good hands with Gipson and Badmothershutyourmouthemosi. And perhaps they were right as those guys have looked every bit as good as Thomas.

    They have both been all over the field, making heavy hits in preseason.

    OK, Browns fans faith and trust in the talent evaluation skills of Mike Lombardi is tenuous.

    But it is Chudzinski and the coordinators (Horton) that have the final say on who starts...and who gets cut, I believe. So that helps with our confidence in these guys.

    And they have given their blessing to Gipson.

    Yeah remember Mendenhall and Sweed how these guys were the second coming.......Bust! The Steelers recently drafts have been very bady althought they almost always grade out high by the pundits following the draft. So Thomas could be a really good player or he could end up like the recent trend of Steeler busts.

    Sweed was a bust, mendenhall most definitely was not. However he had a hell of a time staying healthy and didnt do much to stay in the good graces of the steelers. I expect.him to be a 3 down.back in arizona. He shoukd rush for at least a 1000 and id expect 10 or more tds. Im not expecting anything from Jones BUT in typical nickers.fashion hes in here spewing nonsense. Jones is still one of the fastest players in the nfl. He hasnt lost any speed.

    Im not going to entertain the rest of your nonsense with a response. What i will return to tho is your comment about his burst and the only reason i addressed your ignorant ass in the first place. You said he "used to have burst" to which i replied " he is still one of the fastest players in the nfl" you ignorant hot dog stuffing fat ass. Im also not expecting squat from the guy. He hasnt been able to stay healthy BUT if he can stay healthy he has the skill set. If hes great awesome, if hes not we traded a lb that despite being good prob wasnt gonna make the roster cut for us because we are stacked at lb.

    If he can stay healthy....pffft.

    Every statement about the stools is always prefaced by "if he can stay healthy". Problem is, they never can. If Ben can stay healthy, he'd be awesome. When was the last time he played an entire season?

    Its actually not. Ben has been dinged, as has polamalu. The reason Jones fell from grace is because he was never able to really get started because of the injury bug. How many super bowls has ben been to since joining the league?

    Mendenhall wasn't KiJana Carter/Lawrence Phillips bust.....but he was no star. He was serviceable.

    You might even say that he is like 90% of all RBs these days......he was only meant to provide a change of pace from the predominantpassing game. He did that a bit at times...but he didn't strike fear into the hearts of man.. If he did get 1K yards, he will have more than fulfilled his expectations.

    what's actually not? Can you fucking read?

    The little Superbowl comment surfaces when Steelers fans got nothing to contend with. injuries happen to every team, yet its your excuse....for everything.

    It'll be your excuse this year as well....I didn't see anyone making excuses when we played Thad lewis against you last year. Excuses are for pussies.

    It's actually not an excuse for all Steeler fans. I also brought up the Super Bowl comment BECAUSE when Ben isn't dinged the Steelers make deep runs. He's gone to 3 since entering the league. Go through all the teams in the NFL and see how many would excel with their franchise QB laid up. Unless the defense is truly dominant it's a TALL order and even when the Ravens won with Dilfer the league was very different penalty wise. Now qb's are protected so it's an even taller order to win now with just a dominant defense. Soooo yes if your franchise qb gets hurt it's a legitimate reason for a down season. If the Steelers roll out with Ben healthy for example and lose a bunch of games it's a different situation all together. You'd also have lost with weeden round two. You barely f**cking won with 8 turnovers by Batch and co.
