Steelers lose two for season.

[JSn]

Wow. The NFL is eating players alive this season.

The Steelers have lost rookie running back Rashard Mendenhall and veteran guard Kendall Simmons for the season.

Mendenhall suffered a broken shoulder blade, and Simmons sustained a ruptured Achilles tendon.

wow that is shocking, Mendenhall is a BEAST, and Ray Lewis broke his shoulder blade on a massive head-to-head collision, that was a crazy hit by Lewis. I didnt know Mendenhall broke his shoulder.

What has Mendenhall ever done to be considered a BEAST?

He was a top 15 talent coming out...and he is 225lbs. Pretty big for a RB.

I can't remember which one, but one of the guys on PFW in Progress is a big Mendenhal fan. I imagine he's gonna be in mourning today.

Gee, all I saw on the field or the sidelines for either team last night for RB's was lots of...glass. At least that's what they'd call it here...

So what are the Steeler fans who were cheering a certain injury in week one, shouting 'karma', and making reservations for Tampa saying now?

Only a total douchebag would "cheer an injury". Let's not go lumping all Steelers fans together because of a few degenerates. Every team has 'em....including your beloved Pats.

We're talking about Steeler fans here, there are more than a "few" degenerates.

Jesus. They're already having a lot of trouble blocking for Roethlisberger and now they lose a starting guard? He's going to be in a tub full of ice for the rest of the season.

Re: OT: Steelers lose two for season.

Broken shoulder blade! Yikes...that's a pretty uncommon injury, it usually only happens as part of something like a massive car accident. I hope there's no other damage.

RB is such a punishing position, it's getting to the point where teams need 3 quality backs to start every season.

Well, as the "starting guard", he wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire. It's certainly unfortunate that he was injured, but maybe his replacement (Stapleton) will help shake things up on that O-line.

Just a little defensive there? Steeler's fans DO deserve to get lumped together from all the crap they put out there. IMO..the only fanbase lower than the Steelers are those of the liitle green men from NYC.

He doesn't need to DO anything. He IS a beast. Some thought he'd be better than Darren McFadden coming out of the draft... See PFW.

Say what you will....you're entitled to your opinion. Of course, the same sentiments about Pats fans can probably be heard over at the Steelers board. But I KNOW that not all of you are arrogant pricks, as you should know that not all of us are "injury cheering degenerates". C'mon....let's all hold hands now and sing "We Are The World".

Re: OT: Steelers lose two for season.

I hate to see injuries. Simmons is going to a big loss for them. Roethlisberger has been getting creamed all season.

Re: OT: Steelers lose two for season.

I hate the Steelers, mostly due to their fans. But I hate injuries even more. Mendenhall was looking very good last night until the injury, he can be a stud, I hope this doesn't hurt his career, weird injury. As far as the Guard, Roethlisberger was running for his life already, he's gonna be running all season. He's an amazing athlete Roethlisberger, I hope for the Steelers fans that he doesn't get destroyed this season. He already has had a slew of injuries this year. As far as the fans that were thrilled when Brady went down, they aren't worth any comments.

Well if you are saying he's a beast just because of his size then I guess however, the original poster who said this didn't make that reference so I thought it was more about his play.

As far as PFW is concerned, Andy Hart doesn't exactly have the best track record... "mark tape, McFadden sucks!" :rolleyes2:
