Now the Steelers GM made comments about Bell and his frustration. Not good for a player with two suspensions. Because the Steelers can tag him again next year.

Steelers trade for San Fran TE Vance McDonald and his 5 year $30.1 Mil contract. He just got that contract after 24 catches for 391 yards. Not sure why they would take on that contract for that production. Bell will have fun comparing that to his production.

Steelers sign former Brown Joe Haden to a 3 year $27 million contract. Even though he has not played well the last 2 years. Seems like the Steelers are spending money to bring in players.

With all the spending going on Bell goes on social media demanding he should be paid $17 million a year. I would not be surprised even if he signs his contract offer that is there. That he is in for reduced playing time. That he throws a fit and gets suspended. The Steelers have been putting together a good team could disrupt team chemistry.

Well, had better have saved some in the bank because if he doesn't sign he wont get paid this season.It's as simple as that...

Signing Bell but is he in game shape and not pull something to get injured. Now just how this effects the team on and off the field. Now Steelers and Browns exchanging players?

TJ Watt gets the start at LB over Harrison. I think that TJ could have a rookie year like Clay Mathews did.

The first game of the year wasn't pretty, but in the NFL, a win is a win.

With all the protections given to QB's I thought the crap that Ben pulled after the int should have been flagged. The ref sees it an comes in the make sure it does not get worse. Not sure what he was thinking but if that would have caused an injury he would be hit hard legally by a lineman on the next int. No matter which team it is against.
Bell finds out he needed to practice more. TJ Watt had a very good first game.
Steelers good at times bad at times. Kind of like they played the first games last year. When it seemed something was wrong with the team. Time will tell on that.

That kind of reminded me of when Jeff Van Gundy grabbed Alonzo Morning's leg in that infamous fight many years ago,only difference is Ben is a whole lot bigger than Van Gundy lol

Stephon Tuitt just signs a big contract. Now maybe out for the season with a torn bicep. Steelers had a hard time right after Heywood went out for the season last year.
