Gambling sites for NFL will always look kindly upon the Steelers. But only as long as Ben Roethlisberger only implies retirement but doesn’t really mean it. Unfortunately, seems like this preseason there will be another soap opera starring Le’veon Bell. And we never know when his temperament will get the best of Antonio Brown on the field. Or in the sideline. The Steelers had their best record since 2004 last season, going 13-3. However, the expected Pittsburgh-New England playoff bloodbath never occurred. Because the Steelers were so confident it was bound to happen. As a result, it appeared they forgot they had to beat the Jags first. It is a sad day indeed when a team quarterbacked by Blake Bortles bests one quarterbacked by the ‘Berger.

Do you like reruns? Good. Because, ICYM last season, you’ll have a chance to catch up on the Steelers-Bell long-running contractual saga. On January 11, 2018, Bell said that if the Steelers franchise-tagged him again, he would consider sitting the year out. Or even retiring. On March 6, 2018, the Steelers franchise-tagged Bell for the second consecutive year. D’oh! So far, it looks like the running back will miss workouts and training camp. Like he did last year.
All of this has prompted Hall of Famer Jerome Bettis to scold them ala Kramer. “Hey, hey, alright, hey hey, stop it! Come on, break it up! What’s the matter with you? Now don’t you two see that you’re in love with each other? I mean, why can’t you face that already? You’re running around out there looking for something that’s not even there, when everything that you dream of is right here, right here in front of you. Now why can’t you admit that?” Or words to that effect.
