I consider it a "Participation Trophy"...you know...to make the Stoolers FO feel like that did something right.

They want to get that bad taste of Justin Gilbert out of their mouth.

The Steelers gave Haden the game ball.

Commitment to mediocrity.

Much like a 6th place Little League team getting a trophy. 

LOL...yeah, what a dysfunctional organization them Steelers.

Haden broke his leg.

Quite a disappointment.

He is such a cool guy and I was so happy for him.

Kinda the story of his last few years in Cleveland.  His skills had diminished and he couldn't stay on the field.

Didn't hear that.   As noted, playing in the zone was likely better for him at this point in his career.

This says he will miss "multiple weeks". 

What is multiple weeks?  How long does it take to heal from a broken fibula  ("shin bone").

Is he out for the year? Or could he be back for the playoffs?

Joe Haden and Playoffs involving the Steelers in the same sentence makes me sick.

I didn't think they got anything for Haden, just cut him.

That's what he does.

He gets injured.

Great pick up!

Careful Z. Collins was hurt early in the season and now is gone, so the same could unfortunately be said about him.

Well, he didn't have a bad injury history when we signed him, so we're just unlucky but the Steelers are stupid.

Seems like our whole team is consistently injured at all key positions

8 weeks Gipper.. I broke both the tibia and fibula...

5-6 weeks with the possibility of less. You aren't a professional athlete. He plans to be back for the playoffs if not sooner.

Generally- it's 8 weeks for a broken bone. Might be back in time for the playoffs.

But at what level of efficacy?

[Dick Mellon]

How long will it take to get used to seeing him in black and yellow?

Some doctors said "anywhere from a 4-8 week injury, Haden could return as soon as Week 15 vs. the which is probably doubtful, or he could be out until the playoffs."

It was a strange hit.  The ball was snapped and the receiver instantly bowled him over and wiped him out.

His backup, the no-name CB, Coty Sensabaugh played well in spite of not playing much at all for the past 3 seasons.

If by this you mean that he looks much uglier wearing that uniform....well, that is a given.  They are such ugly uniforms that they would make anyone look ugly.
