FOXBOROUGH — The Patriots secondary isn’t drawing much respect from opponents.

Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward wore Hines Ward Steelers jersey and said he didn’t feel the need to push himself to play with an ankle injury against the Patriots Sunday. In looking at the matchups, the Steelers believed they held an advantage. The following quote was provided by Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

“I probably could have forced it and played but we have some great wideouts,” Ward said. “I wasn’t really concerned. And against the Patriots, we felt we could exploit their secondary. That wasn’t the same secondary that we played against a year ago without having [James Sanders], [Brandon Meriweather] wasn’t back there, and they let Leigh Bodden go. We kind of liked our matchups. So there was no need for me to try to force it and go.”

Wearing Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys, Hines Ward was sure that the New England Patriots couldn’t match up them, thinking that the team could beat the Patriots without him.

The Pittsburgh Steelers was wining their home game over the New York Patriots on Sunday. Out of the game, the Pittsburgh Steelers threw the ball a lot. Then we know that it would be good news and also bad news for those who own Pittsburgh players on tehir Fantasy teams, if that trent continues.

And Rashard Mendenhall could be a controversial player in the Pittsburgh Steelers, as he might not wear Rashard Mendenhall Steelers jersey and be getting the rock so much moving forward. Therefore, it should be bad news about Rashard Mendenhall, or a tragedy; after all, Mendenhall once wore Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys and was a top player for Pittsburgh.

Howeve, we should hold optimistic that there could be some good players available that may help your team late in the season, if Rashard Mendenhall is away.

Meanwhile, Steelers tight end Heath Milelr might wear Heath Miller Steelers jersey and be a smart pickup, too, if it needs a bye-week replacement for your starter. Heath Miller has always been more of a safety blanket then primary option, but he’s good for a touchdown here and there, and he might get one while he’s starting for you.

The Pittsburgh Steelers was winning over the New England Patriots on Sunday, as they added one more point to entitle themselves division championship. Wearing Hines Ward Steelers jersey, the wide receiver Hines Ward missed the game, and in his place there appeared Emmanuel Sanders Steelers jersey and Antonio Brown Steelers jersey. Fortunately, Both Sanders and Brown had very productive days, which made immediate contribution to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ victory.

Wearing Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys, Emmanuel Sanders is projected by NumberFire in the Fantasy League to put up only six points. However, as they are not big names coming into this year, they aren’t owned in a lot of fantasy leagues. Of course, a wide receiver just needs to have one touchdown to have a pretty good day. And Antonio Brown is projected to get more points of the two (7.73) but I think they are pretty similar plays.

Therefore, there still has something to expect from Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Steelers have to wait and see who can play on Sudnay

The Steelers wide receiver Dez Bryant, wearing Dez Bryant Steelers jersey, missed his socond straight day with a sore ankle, and might probably be not available in Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots. So the team would possibly start Emmanuel Sanders that wears Emmanuel Sanders Steelers jersey and has scored twice on 13 catches this season.

At the same time, there are also some others that didn’t practice Thursday in Pittsburgh. Wearing James Farrior Steelers jersey, the linebacker James Farrior was limited in practice with a calf injury. And then there were four others that didn’t practice, including linebackers James Harrison and Jason Worilds, nose tackle Chris Hoke, and guard Doug Legursky.

“We just have to wait and see,” defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau said of Farrior’s injury. “He was pretty good today, I thought, and we’ll just see. That’ll be up to the doctors anyhow.”

In all, the Steelers should take good care of it.

In Thursday’s practice of the Pittsburgh Steelers, the wide receiver Hines Ward didn’t wear Hines Warda Steelers jersey and attend the practice, which is the secnd straight day Ward missed practice as he is still recovering a sore ankles. Therefore, there is still no certainty whether Hines Ward would play against Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots.

Meanwhile, Emmanuel Sanders said he might wear Emmanuel Sanders Steelers jersey and start in place of Hines Ward on Sunday.

“If he can’t go, I am the starter, but as of right now, we’re going with Ward,” said Sanders, who has worn Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys and scored twice on 13 catches this season. “I saw him running today. Things are looking good.”

After all, the Pittsburgh Steelers would make their final decision by Saturday, as Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots is not that easy; Pittsburgh is also an AFC game that undergoes with 5 wins until now. Since Sanders is well and without injury affect, New England could probably depend on him.

The Steelers are considering whether to dress No. 3 quarterback the guy in Dennis Dixon Steelers jersey for Sunday’s game against Baltimore.

If things go really, really badly, if the Steelers choose to sit Dixon, the Steelers could turn to the guy Hines Ward Steelers jersey at quarterback, who is behind the guy Ben Roethlisberger Steelers jersey and Charlie Batch.

Ward said he has taken snaps and practiced handoffs following recent practices and said Thursday that he will be ready if needed at quarterback against Baltimore. Not that Ward is necessarily very confident in his skills if that possibility should arise.

“I am just taking snaps just in case,” said Ward, who last played quarterback in college. “We don’t have an option right now. I can hand the ball off, but if it comes down to me, we are really in bad shape.”

Well, let’s just hope the Steelers don’t get to that point. Ward played a bit of quarterback for Georgia back in 1995.

Though free safety Ed Reed in Baltimore Ravens jerseys had a history of confrontations with the guy in Hines Ward Steelers jersey and he had frequent accusations of Ward for being a cheap-shot artist, said he’s happy that the Pittsburgh Steelers’ combative wide receiver isn’t suspended for Sunday’s season opener.

Ward was arrested for driving under the influence this summer, but hasn’t been convicted.

“The DUI was something that happened, and I’m sure Hines took care of that with the courts and community service or whatever it may be,” Reed said. “It’s an unfortunate situation. You don’t want to see any player in that situation. As far as suspension goes, you never want to see a player out of the game either. It’s not even a decision of mine to comment on. “

Ed Reed also suggest that he is looking forward to play against Hines Ward.

“Whatever happened, happened. I’m just glad he’s all right, that there wasn’t anything tragic that came out of that. They took care of that situation and that’s behind them. We’re going to play football, and he’s going to come at me, and I’m going to go at him the way we do.”

Hine Ward is still combative

The 14th-year veteran wearing Hine Ward Steelers jersey said that he had started focusing on the Steelers’ regular-season opener in Baltimore. He is one of the players among those who are bitter, hard-hitting.

It may not seem like a prudent thing to talk about celebrating an end zone in Baltimore given how charged the Steelers-Ravens rivalry is and how polarizing a figure that Ward is in it.

Ward needs only 46 catches to become the eighth player in NFL history with 1,000 career receptions. The guy in Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys will manage to reach this goal just to prove himself.

“To do it all with this organization, not playing in a dome, not really playing in a passing offense, I think it just speaks volumes about my longevity in the league and consistency over the years,” Ward said. “If I reach it, maybe I can prove to all the naysayers that, ‘Hey, he’s a pretty good wide receiver.’ There’s still critics. That’s what fuels me.”

On Sunday, the guy in Hine Ward Steelers jersey is chose as an offensive captain by his teammates for the seventh time.

“It’s definitely his (meeting) room,” second-year wide receiver wearing Emmanuel Sanders Steelers jersey said. “He’s got to be one of the smartest receivers if not the smartest receiver in the National Football League. I just try to get under his wing and pick his brain.”

Despite the depth and young talent the Steelers have at wide receiver, the 35-year-old Ward still is expected to be the most significant part of the passing game.

“I’m surprised, at his age, that he’s such a playmaker,” inside linebacker in Lawrence Timmons Steelers jersey said. “And he does it year in and year out.”

He’s done it enough years that Ward now stands at the entrance of a very exclusive club. He has never caught fewer than 48 passes since becoming a starter. If Ward stays healthy, there isn’t no reason to think he would reach his 1,000th career reception this season.

“I would love to do it at Heinz Field,” he said.

The Steelers signed eight players to their practice squad today and named four team captains for the 2011 season.

The eight players are running back John Clay, tight end/fullback Jamie McCoy, wide receiver Tyler Grisham, offensive tackle Trevis Turner, guard John Malecki, defensive lineman Corbin Bryant, linebacker Mortty Ivy and defensive back Da’Mon Cromartie Smith.

The guy in Ben Roethlisberger Steelers jersey and the guy in Hines Ward Steelers jersey will serve as captains on offense, James Farrior on defense and Arnaz Battle on special teams.

Undrafted free agent tight end Wesyle Saunders survived cut day Saturday and will likely put on Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys next weekend when the defending AFC champions open the season at Baltimore.

The 6-foot-6, 270-pound Saunders hoped to be drafted but his stock took a hit when he was forced to undergo foot surgery. He went undrafted, though the Steelers were impressed enough by his athleticism to take a chance.

 “He’s got a tremendous up-side,” said coach Mike Tomlin. “He didn’t play football a year ago, but all of those were negatives in terms of him being able to show what he’s capable of. So, when you get to this point, we look at where he’s capable of going. By no means is he a finished product.”
