For those that are following closer than I am, when is Le'veon Bell gonna play?

Probably week 11.

?????? Good question. Sources are saying he's expected before end of Sept but

I get why he's doing it. I don't see why the Steelers won't pay tbh.

Dillinger

Because running backs aren’t that valuable

And have a short shelf life.

They would be likely to pay if his backup didn't come out and

Had 1 good game and one meh game. Plus Bell does a lot more than Connor and

Dillinger

The meh game had much more to do with the game flow than Conner's

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:41am

I agree. But to say Connor can do what Bell can do is silly.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:43am

Nobody said that. Another silly thing would be to pay Bell 20x more than his

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:46am

Well the Steelers are 0-1-1 ... Who knows if Bell would have been the difference

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:47am

Unless Bell can kick a FG in the rain AND play defense against Kelce

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:50am

Maybe, maybe not. Whole game could be different with him. Might not have come

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:53am

Agreed.

They are paying him

Wants a long deal with a lot of guaranteed $$, not 1 year franchise crap.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:41am

Of course he does. And most teams don't feel motivated to offer that to RB's.

CougsBeatU

9/18/18 11:43am

Each of them are looking out for #1 so I don't blame either side really.

Dillinger

9/18/18 11:45am

I understand his side, I also understand the Steelers side

kimdaddy35

9/18/18 11:47am

the guys on sirius think that when he said no to the deal last year he

9/18/18 11:50am

That would not surprise me

kimdaddy35

9/18/18 11:52am

What was he offered last year? I don't remember.

I think

Could be to preserve his body before free agency.

Preserving your body at the expense of showing you are a locker room divider

Maybe true but, teams care more about performance. Locker rooms in the NFL are
