Welp, not a good look right now for the Pre Season. Someone make a move on impulse
I already said Pitt is toast week one, this doesn't change MY prediction or opinion
If he didn't have that spine injury I'd say something more mean
Don't go throwing in the garden shears already -- you've still got Ben and AB!

McCarthy: Jordy is a key member of our team, but I'm not going to get into preliminary tests. Hoping for good news based on info I've gotten

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin just said C Maurkice Pouncey suffered an ankle injury, surgery likely. Stephon Tuitt down a couple weeks.
Does Clowney get over 10sacks this season or play in 10gms at least?
Ed Bouchette @EdBouchette now
Pouncey has broken bone

Pouncey has broken ankle. Steelers still hoping he can return this season.

Steelers and Packers were healthiest and third-healthiest offenses, respectively, in the league last year per @fboutsiders.
If the Maurkice Pouncey injury is at all serious and the surgery knocks him out for a while (I don't know how long the surgery will take to recover from since they're being vague about the specific details of the injury/severity) then that's a much bigger loss than Jordy Nelson.
Pouncey was an All-Pro center last year, the stabilizer of that offensive line. This will have a huge impact on their offense if he's sidelined for an extended period of time.
