"Brain" Roethlisberger stay focused

Ben Roethlisberger reiterated that he said at the beginning of training camp near the end of his contract is not a problem, the quarterback of the focus is to help the Pittsburgh Steelers to return to the playoffs after 8-8 consecutive season. "This is out of my mind, because now in football," said Roethlisberger Wednesday morning on ESPN's "mike and mike". "This is a play, so it is not as difficult as people might think. I just want to go out to give everything I have and all of my fans and my team, is the way it is." Roethlisberger two years for eight years, he signed a $102 million deal in 2008, this is when the Steelers traditionally they starting quarterback signed a new agreement.

Steelers plan to sign Roethlisberger of long-term contract after this season, when they will have enough room under the salary cap to pay franchise around the quarterback and maintain a competitive team. Roethlisberger to end his 11 training camp when the Steelers played preseason opener on Saturday night, he and the New York Giants quarterback Eli manning said, marvel at the fast time is over. Manning is a scholar. Steelers NFL draft and fritz 11 2004.The 33-year-old Roethlisberger in March, has been like a coach, because he has always been a quarterback Steelers young wide receiver. Since 2004 is part of the evolution, the Roethlisberger rushed to the scene, winning 14 consecutive start as a rookie, super bowl in the next season.

"For me it is about the brain," Roethlisberger says he has changed. This is the first read. "Early If not, find the second you read it, and then began to occur, running here and there, no matter what it is. Now I want to know more of the offense and defense, what to play against the defense and to look at your third and fourth. "Roethlisberger wish I could read to January playoffs sat in the past two seasons." We all know what happened last year. To me it is about moving on and put it in the past, said it was a New Year," said Roethlisberger." This is a kind of mentality quarterback. When you have a bad game, a bad, bad to intercept, you must move on, to put it behind you. This is my state of mind. It's a new season, we are a new team."

The Pittsburgh steelers Haley

Pittsburgh Steelers As excited as the Steelers’ offensive linemen are by the addition of Mike Munchak, Pittsburgh Steelers their enthusiasm may be trumped by someone else at team headquarters. Pittsburgh Steelers “Really nobody was happier when Coach (Mike) Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers Kevin Colbert and Mr. Rooney were able to pull off getting him to come on board," Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Todd Haley said of the Steelers' new offensive line coach. Pittsburgh Steelers "He’s a great teacher. He’s great at what he does, the best in the league in my opinion. He seamlessly transitioned into our staff. He's a stud.” Haley and Munchak join Dick LeBeau as three former NFL head coaches on Tomlin’s staff, giving it some heft. And Haley has good reason to be thrilled that Munchak will mentor and mold the Steelers’ offensive line this season. The line came together at the end of last season and is still young with left guard Ramon Foster, who is only 28, the oldest projected starter up front. Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey returns after missing most of last season with a torn ACL, and the line will be counted on to keep quarterback Ben Roethlisberger upright and open holes for running backs Le'Veon Bell, LeGarrette Blount and Dri Archer. Stellar offensive line play has often eluded the Steelers during Tomlin’s tenure, and some of that can be blamed on injuries. But with Munchak, a Pro Football Hall of Fame guard, pulling everything together the Steelers’ line could be poised to lead the way for an offense that averaged just under 28 points in its final eight games in 2013. Pittsburgh Steelers “Not all great players are great coaches. Pittsburgh Steelers But he’s definitely one of those great players that transitioned into being a great coach,” Haley said. Pittsburgh Steelers “The head coaching experience is a benefit because he doesn’t just see it from his position group or his perspective. Pittsburgh Steelers He sees the big picture, which I take pride in doing, having been there. Pittsburgh Steelers He is a very good teacher that believes in hard work, like we all do. Pittsburgh Steelers Great players want to be coached. They want to be pushed to see how good they can be, Pittsburgh Steelers and these guys are eating it up,” Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Steelers won against the Browns

Begin the Pittsburgh Steelers won against the Cleveland Browns in the last game of the regular season. Pittsburgh Steelers The final score was 24-10 and it was played at Heinz Field. Pittsburgh Steelers The Steelers are already out of the playoffs but this game left them with a record of 8-8. Pittsburgh Steelers The Steelers had a pretty good game. Ben Roethlisberger threw three touchdown passes. And the team managed to stay ahead throughout the whole game and come out with a win. During this game wide receiver, Mike Wallace, cornerback, Curtis Brown and tackle, Mike Adams were all out due to injuries.

Pittsburgh Steelers team pratice

The offense and defense traded big plays Wednesday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' second minicamp practice of the week. Ben Roethlisberger threw long touchdown passes to Antonio Brown and Markus Wheaton during a two-plus hour practice, but the Steelers' defensive backs also had their moments on a hot and humid day that it made it feel like training camp. Starting cornerbacks Ike Taylor and Cortez Allen each intercepted Roethlisberger. Allen had a pair of picks while inside linebacker Sean Spence returned an intercepted Landry Jones pass for a touchdown. Practice concluded with rookie wide receiver Martavis Bryant showcasing his speed by blowing past the Steelers' defensive backs and hauling in a long touchdown pass from Jones. That play, free safety Mike Mitchell said, ultimately allowed the offense to get the better of the defense, though it was close. "They ended with a high note," Mitchell said. "It would have been nice to knock that ball down but we're battling. I think we've been playing really good in the secondary as a unit. We're all kind of learning each other's strengths and what each other likes to do. We're getting better." Also of note from Wednesday: Justin Brown continues to get work with the first-team offense, and the 2013 sixth-round pick stood out during a 7-on-9 pass drill. Brown caught a long pass from Roethlisberger and then capped the drive with a short touchdown reception. Roethlisberger is optimistic Dri Archer will help the offense but he isn't sure how the Steelers will deploy the fleet-footed rookie. Archer, Roethlisberger said, has been splitting time between playing running back and wide receiver. The third-round draft pick has also been among the players who have fielded punts during offseason practices. Pittsburgh Steelers The Steelers are hoping to get more out of Archer than they did Chris Rainey, a fifth-round pick in 2012 who lasted just one season in Pittsburgh. "Is he a better runner than Rainey?" Roethlisberger said. "We won't really know until we get some pads on and get on the field." Outside linebacker Jason Worilds, who practiced on a limited basis of a lingering calf injury, is a good example of how much younger the Steelers have gotten on defense in recent years. Worilds turned just 26 in March, but he is one of the more experienced players on the Steelers' defense. "I'm one of the elders in the room now," Worilds said. Pittsburgh Steelers "It's an interesting role to be in. Pittsburgh Steelers I'm just helping some of the younger guys, making sure they know how to go about being a professional and taking care of themselves." Pittsburgh Steelers
