November 5th:

November 6th (spotted at LA Fitness in North Hills, Pitt):

Looking like he will report next week before the Nov 13th deadline. Another dose of drama on its way for Pittsburgh. I'm sure the media will be buzzing this week & next.

:gaah:

Yeah several reports of Bell sightings in PIT yesterday. Well...as soon as he sets foot in 3400 S. Waters St, we'll be bombarded with Bell shit again. Hopefully the team stays focused and gets thru this game tomorrow night with a W and take it from there.

If one team is equipped to deal with distractions...it's Tomlin's Steelers...always some drama.

Prediction -


Bell comes back, takes one snap (running play). OL doesn't block and let all 4 or 5 defenders free reign at him...... Bell gets hurt and misses rest of season.

They're an injury away from Stevan Ridley starting.

No thank you
Fair, but teams are always an injury away from starting someone they don't want to. Be it at RB, QB, or WR, etc....

We've all got angst towards Bell but let's keep things in perspective.

The team has no true third receiver right now. Conner is still a rookie who will see the biggest workload he has ever had. One freak injury to him derails the offense (2014 playoff game anyone?).

And I would bet all of those teams would enjoy having a player of Bell's caliber as insurance.

Right, there’s never cancers
He's never been a cancer when actually with the team.

Sorry, I'm not exactly comfortable with Stevan Ridley being the starter

Catastrophize much, and I’d say things r a bit different now with bell,

This team isn't devoid of leaders. No reason to think Bell won't at least be held in check.

It's also really not catastrophizing either. They are literally one play away from disaster at RB (again, 2014 playoffs?) with a guy who has never seen this workload before
