injury report

[MasterOfPuppets]

RAVENS: LG Ben Grubbs (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10473/ben-grubbs) (toe) is questionable and looks ready to return for his first game since the season-opener against the Steelers. WR Lee Evans (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/5538/lee-evans) (ankle) is out again and will be replaced by rookie Torrey Smith (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/14032/torrey-smith). DT Haloti Ngata (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/9598/haloti-ngata) (thigh) is probable after returning to practice today.

STEELERS: OLB LaMarr Woodley (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10490/lamarr-woodley) and WR Emmanuel Sanders (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/13295/emmanuel-sanders) (knee) are out. ILB James Farrior (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/1219/james-farrior) (calf), WR Hines Ward (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/1494/hines-ward) (ankle) and P Daniel Sepulveda (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10556/daniel-sepulveda) (right knee) are questionable. OLB James Harrison (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/4433/james-harrison) (eye) is probable and is expected to start. Look for Jason Worilds (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/13306/jason-worilds), who has missed the past four games with a quadriceps injury, to start at Woodley's spot. That will allow Lawrence Timmons (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10459/lawrence-timmons) to move back inside next to Larry Foote (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/3656/larry-foote) or Farrior, who believes he is ready to play. On offense, Ward or Antonio Brown (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/13934/antonio-brown) will start for Sanders.

I hope some of the older vets don't try to rush to get back because its Ravens week and end up not getting the rest they need. There is still a lot of season left.

yea - I don't believe Harrison will be at full force anyways - not gonna lie, a little agitated Ngata isn't out - wish for once we could catch some breaks - but, have full faith that "The Standard is the standard" will get us through

My best Tomlin impression: "Our guys know what opportunities lay ahead of them with a win of this nature - and we really live for that, we embrace it and we know it is just one step towards our ultimate goal - and that is pursuing a world championship."

I agree, but being that we are missing a lot of good players it would be nice to even it out some.

that certainly implies the torch has been passed (and assumes sanders woulda started along with wallace, had he been there).

i hope we knock him right back out (with a legal chop block, of course).

Tomlin is a cliche factory.

That idea doesn't bother me as much as it appears to bother others- all I want is a win! Yes, the other fans will gripe and complain about how we beat them when they weren't at their best- but they're going to gripe and whine anyway aren't they- no matter what happens if they lose to us. So might as well beat them any way we can- a win is a win and we need this win against this team.
