RyanM915 24 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 keep in mind.. Samuels said he assumes Conner will play. you just don't assume that unless you've had some contact with Conner or the coaches relayed some info. Link to post Share on other sites

NeroVendict 77 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I see him pushing himself to play oakland this week. Steelers need to win and they've dropped 2 straight games. Link to post Share on other sites
FranktheTank2020 15 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Sources say conner exited the locker room limping and grabbing his butt. I dont want to speculate but last time I walked out of a room full of men doing that I was never the same Link to post Share on other sites

RyanM915 24 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 keep in mind.. in the press conference last night, Mike Tomlin said Conner has a "lower leg contusion" and 2 names he says "has an ankle" Obviously we all expect/expected it to be ankle from what we saw, but why wouldnt he just say ankle for both?

You don't need him for the Raiders. Give the kid the start and see what he has. That way you rest your starter and get a good look at the rookie and should come away with an easy win. Easy win? Lol.... the Raiders ALWAYS play Pitt tough and the Steelers have a bad habit of playing down to competition. Link to post Share on other sites
ReggiesBush 21 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Well we know Tomlin won't give us ANYTHING usable on a Monday. I'm surprised we even got "contusion" Link to post Share on other sites

Well raiders covered the spread and steelers didnt. so raiders will cover the spread again because the public will be on steelers. dont care abouf straight up though.

With the weight of Phillips on his lower leg combined with the torque, it's likely a ruptured patella. If he had a ruptured patella we would know about it by now. Link to post Share on other sites

If it's a minor rupture, I would think the Steelers would not divulge this as it would be pretty easy for the opposing teams to target. Link to post Share on other sites

The drive he was injured on, they passed on every single play until his injury (which was a dumpoff pass). There were still 8 minutes left in the game at that point. The last few weeks, Tomlin has just been abandoning the run when the Steelers get in any kind of trouble. Link to post Share on other sites

dakimbell 1,041 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 This made me smile: E'Twaun Moore (left tibial contusion) will return to the starting lineup for Monday's matchup with the Clippers, and he will not have a minutes limit. Moore needed to be helped off the court on Friday after sustaining his injury, so it's somewhat surprising that he'll be back out there after only missing one game. Link to post Share on other sites
