YoloinOhio Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Well that sucks. Their defense was already really good. 1
RoyBatty is alive Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) Ehh, old, coming off a bad knee. Interested to see how much the Steelers paid him. We invested heavily with "edge rushers" and for the future. Edited July 19, 2021 by RoyBatty is alive 1

HappyDays Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 I'd rather they sign him than the Chiefs. The Chiefs might really hurt at pass rush this year which bodes well for us. 3 1
whorlnut Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Does he block well? Cause as far as I can tell Ben is gonna be doomed behind that line. 4 2

I think Pittsburgh and Big Ben are "in denial". He should have hung it up last year. So the Steelers now going to magically turn into a running first team? OK. I think the Steelers are fighting Cinci for the basement in their Conference. Too bad we have to see Ben in the first game of the season before he starts to slow/break down. 1 1
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 I thought the team had hired a new accounting agency! 1

John from Riverside Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 It took a long time for a team to sign Ingram I think that says something we definitely weren’t going to take him after we just got done drafting defensive lineman one and two in our own draft

They often interfere with the prevailing narrative Old, slow and injured. No thanks. I didn't like many of the DL FA signings last year but Beane cut/restructured nicely this off-season and got younger. Hopefully they have the nice mix of youth and experience to generate a consistent pass rush 2
AmishRifle Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 Ben supposedly went all in this offseason on a diet and workout regimen. Reports are that he’s dropped a lot of weight and is getting stronger. Will be interesting to see if it allows him to be a little more mobile or maybe he’s just expecting to take a beating behind that line. 2
Doc Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 He lost 3 starters from last year's OL and they were replaced by scrubs. It won't be pretty.

His son plays in the same pga junior league my buddies son does. He’s seen Ben a few times this summer said he looks really thin.
