Players predict quick return for QB
Steelers guard Alan Faneca said he'd be "shocked" if Ben Roethlisberger didn't play Monday night at Jacksonville.
Roethlisberger Ponders 'Black Cloud'
Ben Roethlisberger is beginning to wonder about what he calls "that black cloud over my head."
The knee injury that kept him out of three games last season. The motorcycle crash in June that shattered his face and caused so much bleeding paramedics feared he might die. The appendectomy that forced him to miss the Pittsburgh Steelers' first game, just when it seemed he had made a remarkably fast recovery from the crash.
"I've been through a little bit the last couple of months, but it's just another thing," Roethlisberger said Wednesday, when he practiced for the first time since his latest operation. "Things happen for a reason, and I'm taking that approach. That's why I'm going to get back as soon as I can."
Batch could be back on the bench
Batch's reward for leading the Steelers to a 28-17 victory against the Miami Dolphins last Thursday -- and leading all quarterbacks in passer rating after the first week of the season -- may well be a return to the bench.
