Heads starting to slouch on Steeler sideline, while most important head lingers at home

As the Steelers went through another tough practice in the midst of preparing for their matchup versus the Ravens this coming weekend from Baltimore on sunday night, they had someone specific on their minds who may noty be able to participate due to another concussion. This would be a tough thing for any team regardless of the player, but it is even more rough on the team when it is your starting quarterback, captain and leader of your team. Ben Roethlisberger's head has been on the mend lately and the Steelers are being very careful with how they treat him this week. Therefore don't expect to see Ben this weekend and if he does miracoulusly play, he probably won't be able to do too much for the Steelers, who's second option is backup Dennis Dixon, a second year player who has never made a start or appearance in his career.
