If he can take a back up role at a reduced salary to help meet the cap, great. If not, I hope wherever he lands, he does well (but hopefully in the NFC!).

As to the Ravens fans on the site, you may be the AFC North Champs, but believe me, you lost games you shouldn’t have (remember losing to Charlie Batch)? You will be one and done also in the playoffs. Your defense is also getting old. Be careful, what you spit up will come back and hit you in the face.

However, I realize I’m too fat , old and slow, and my knees are gone.

“Hampton missed most of training camp after a knee injury in the playoffs last year”

Wait! They were in the playoffs last year? That’s right!! Thats the game Tebow threw for over 300 yards and sent them packing!! But Sanchez is the starter this week…

0 1 say what…..?

You couldn’t even get to the dance this year losing to a marginal bungles team at your home venue. And you have the cojones to talk about the repeat afcn chpion Baltimore Ravens. So the question is simple. Are you stoopid or just in a state of denial (which is not just a river in Egypt )?

Last time I remember this guy in the news he was complaining after getting owned by Marshal Yanda. I didn’t even know he was still in the league.

7 9 You must be mistaken. Casey was just telling marshal how cool it was to play in the Super Bowl…..something like that..

Keep the big snack at a discounted rate and rotate him in and out.

Steelers can’t pay him what he’ll want and they have a backup nose tackle waiting to take over in Steve McLendon. Big Snack was a great player for the Steelers, but it looks like it’s time to say goodbye.

If they bring back Ratliff for cheap, they could, finally, put him at D end. With the Brent situation, they don’t have a true 3-4 NT – never really did.

It’s humorous to hear them complain every season about Hampton’s imposing girth.
Steelers fans like their nose tackles to be skinny and their quarterbacks to be fat. It’s a ‘Burgh Thing…

The steelers are going nowhere due to their terrible offense. Once again Ben was blessed with the #1 D in the league and he couldn’t lead this team to the playoffs. All the yinzers want to blame Haley, O line, WR’s, Tomlin and anyone other than Ben. It’s time to take the blinders off and realize he is not an elite QB. Never was never will be.

Steelers continue their decline in the offseason, priceless.

OK, so the Steelers keep him, and they are too old, they let him go and they are on the decline?

Make sense if you can, I know that is hard for you. By the way, your team is going to be on a bigger decline than ours when you lose Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.

However, he would have to realize he’d have to take a pretty sizable cut in pay to justify his current presence on Pittsburgh or any other team’s roster.

I mean seriously, could management do any worse? They bankrolled on this season by restructuring contracts only to end up a .500 team or worse. If that’s not desperation, please tell me what is.
