Ben Roethlisberger says Mark Barron's tackle was illegal, but not dirty

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger is questioning the legality of a tackle from St. Louis Rams S Mark Barron that caused a deep bone bruise and grade 2 MCL sprain in his Pro Bowl knee.

He told Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that the hit “could have been” called as a penalty, but he doesn’t think Barron’s tackle was a dirty play.

The legality of the play ... discussed, and an interpretation of the current rules would seem to indicate that Barron’s tackle, although clearly incidental, was still a violation of a league rule adopted after Tom Brady suffered a torn ACL in Week 1 of the 2007 season.

The injury will cost Roethlisberger over a month of game action based on his initial four to six week recovery timetable (although neither he nor head coach Mike Tomlin are ready to place a timetable of their own on the injury), but the two-time Super Bowl champion isn’t harboring any stale feelings or ill will towards Barron.

Mike Perreia says the play should have been flagged. I couldn't tell from the angle that I saw but you know if that was Brady, Mark Barron would have been in jail.

This was a dirty play plain and simple.

Anyone who has EVER stepped on a football field knows it.

Thanks, Ben is being a trooper, ha.

I was looking at some of the video but none of them really showed a good angle. From the little I could see it does appear the guy turned his body to hit Ben before he fell.

If a player is fined for an illegal hit why does the money go to the NFL and not the player that was hurt?

Good question especially with all the evidence of brain trauma we have now. The NFL needs better support for long term care of players.

This ain't your average job.

I'm getting tired of seeing these type of hits.

I think players should be suspended 4 this type of nonsense.

This game is violent enough without hits like this.

This could have easily been avoided.

Agreed, but the NFL will not do it unless we force them to. It sure as hell won't be out of the kindness of their hearts.

Yes it looks like he (the Rams guy who ever he is) was aiming for the legs and his arms were swinging around towards the legs.

FUCK john harbaugh for saying he was happy when the Ravens broke Bens nose

doing preseason?

Steelers vs Ravens 8:30 pm tonight Keys to a steeler victory: Mike Vick no turnovers. If he has 2 or more the Ravens win. Run LeVeon run. Run DeAngelo run. Mike Vick throwing 5 to 10 yards to Anonio Brown and Heath Miller and let them do the rest. Defense holding Ravens to at least 17 or less. In short Mike Vick doesn't need to win the game for the Steelers. He just needs to get the ball to the guys who can athletically win it. Mike also doesn't need to throw it no more than 25 times.

We need to hold that o-line too....the Ravens dont need to get anywhere near Vick.

PittsburghSteelers.org Prince.org sure is quiet tonight...

I'm here dude. We don't run and hide. We here win or lose.

You're confusing us with the 49er fans. You see how quickly they ran

out of here last season and none of them are here now. They only show

up when they are doing well. Good luck with the Vikings. They were quite

a circus the past few seasons.

Bell had over 100yds

Vick had no TOs and was pretty efficient even tho he didnt pass for big yards

O-line played well in run game but gave up 4 sacks

Scobee's missed FGs were the difference

Vick made some bad throws in the 2nd half. He also panics when you take his first option away.

Some people think Vick is the same qb he was in 2002. His skills has eroded since he was with

the Eagles. The o-line missed a few blocks but Vick just panic some tonight.

Yes if Scobee makes fg's the Steelers win. He cost them the game tonight. He's been horrible

this season.

not really familiar with last season on the org, i signed up here near the end of 2014 and didnt even realize there were sports related threads till later...but yeah the Vikings always seem to have some kind of dysfunction since the Leslie Frazier era, but with Mike Zimmer coaching, and now that #28 is back home, and Teddy is progressing nicely, and that defense is wreaking havoc on QB's, the immediate future looks nice...

nope. Vick did his job. The fog loss this game, plain and simple.

He played decent enough to win but he made some bad throws. The 4th and 2 pass

to Antonio Brown was wild and high. He played scared. There was a point late in the

4th the offense only had only mustered 62 yards before Bell got going again.

I won't use the fog as an excuse. It didn't affect Baltimore's kicker so it shouldn't have

affected Scobee.

everyone in the steelers lose Coker room knows who lost this game. He may be unemployed if they can find a replacement.

Hopefully.

I just saw on Yahoo where Marcus Vick even questioned the play call on that first 4th and 2

where Vick ran the sweep. He said on Twitter not the qb sweep you have Bell.
