He’s what? More offense?
Pass rushers, DBs are the obvious needs. But I can tell you this: Ben Roethlisberger is lobbying hard for more offensive targets #Steelers https://t.co/PEY4O5U3fm

Great punter
#Steelers punter @JBerry_4 is tied for the least number of touchbacks (5) in the league since the start of the 2015 regular season.

That’s quite a bit!
Let this sink in. Warrick Dunn has provided homes for 155 families. 155 FAMILIES.

But some didn’t get the news
Lots of people complaining Big Ben twitter account (not run by him) blocked them. In my experiences, if you get blocked, you deserve it.

No word, but he’s ready
No update from league on Martavis Bryant, who's awaiting word. Roger Goodell's office reviews case.
