08:02 AM ET 12.22 | Given the chance for a do-over, the Steelers may well make a different decision at quarterback. [Mike Tomlin] hasn't announced his intentions at quarterback publicly or within the organization, but it's widely believed in the front office that Ben Roethlisberger will rest his high ankle sprain Saturday against the St. Louis Rams and could sit out Week 17 as well. Roethlisberger did not practice Wednesday after he was clearly hobbled during Monday night's 20-3 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was immobile and had to adjust his plant foot on throws to compensate for the injury. ... Even so, Roethlisberger insisted he's doing everything he can to help keep Pittsburgh's title hopes alive.

Playing Ben on Monday was a huge mistake, obviously he's always going to say he's good to go and Mike shouldn't be listening to him

Rest him for the playoffs! The Steelers can beat the Rams and Browns with Batch at QB anyway. And the worst that can happen is a wild card game, which is very likely even if they win their last two game...

You know that fact is that there is no provable advantage to being a 1 or 2 seed. Check the record book. Pack won as a 6 last year Steelers won as a 6 and I think the Gmen were the 6 seed the year they won it against the Pats and a 1 seed the year they lost it to the Ravens

Oh please. He had the benefit of a great team around him. Yes he's a good QB but not great.

You're right he's not comparable to them, he's a winner.
