I have no insight on TA's current injury status, however we'll need him in 3 weeks or at worst the NFC title (assuming we take care of business) game . The drop off from Armstead to Peat is enormous.

I'd also sit Ramz vs Carolina. Getting somewhat healthy is paramount for our All Pro tackles heading into the playoffs.

Nobody in the league plays LT as well as Armstead. I hope he can get right over the next two weeks. We need him healthy.

When health, Armstead is the best LT in the league. The guy just can't stay healthy though. I think we could get a big return for him in a trade in the off-season. Right now though, I just hope he's ready for the playoffs.

I read somewhere the Steelers were continually punching him in the chest all game long... Pretty dirty play to try to re-injure a player.

That play you could see the DL slap him in the chest. It was pretty clear that’s what they were trying to do.

I don't hold that against anybody. When I played LT, if I knew the DE or DT had say a bum knee I'd cut block them as much as much as i could just to make them focus on everything but the current play. Whatever it takes.
