I Dare You!

So, in the past month the Pittsburgh Steelers have lost future Hall Of Fame quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and back-up Mason Rudolph to injuries.  Especially sad -- and scary -- to see Rudolph knocked out yesterday by a double-whammy hit to his head -- the helmet-to-jaw hit delivered by Baltimore Ravens safety Earl Thomas, and then the back of his head as Rudolph hit the ground, already out cold.  Third-stringer Devlin Hodges came in and acquitted himself well, going 7 of 9 for 68 yards and a touchdown, plus an impressive 21 yard run in a quarter and a half of work.  This blogger was quite taken with Hodges and the Steelers play around him in a tough 26-23 overtime loss to the Ravens.  Call-Outs And Shout-Outs wishes a speedy recovery to Rudolph, and we send our vote of confidence to Hodges, who surely has a challenging road ahead of him.

That being said...
