Ben to start on Sunday.

With the way the defense is playing right now, this is a very dangerous team with Ben at the helm. If the offense can just average 20+ points a game, they become extremely hard to beat, I think.

I thought the Foles kid looked pretty good last night for Philly. Big guy, big arm.
The Colts & Luck are due to come back down to earth for a few games.

Steelers fear Colon lost for yet another season [url="http://t.co/znqe60w1"]http://wp.me/p14QSB-6Cfu[/url]

Colon is addition by subtraction. The guy has been steeling money from the Rooney's for years. He was decent at run blocking since he was moved to the interior, and wasn't completely horrible at pass blocking when he knew his assignments...the problem is that he's the dumbest player I've ever seen. The guy couldn't pick up a basic stunt to save his life. And the false penalties and horrific holding calls were maddening.

David DeCastro has dressed the last two games. He's reportedly well enough to play, they just don't want to rush him into things. If he can come back sooner rather than later, our line will be in OK shape.

Ike is the real worry. As much as some Steeler fans complained about him earlier in the season, he's played his butt off over the past 7 games. Without him, we lose a ton of flexibility with our coverages since we just can't trust any other CB besides Keenan Lewis (who is the real #1 priority in free agency this year. Mike Wallace can take a walk, in my opinion).

Hip injuries scare me. Modern sports medicine seems to have figured out everything except hip and neck injuries.
