Roethlisberger had arthroscopic knee surgery to repair damaged
cartilage and will be out for Sunday's game. It's possible he could
miss the week 10 game as well.
The team is saying he should be ready to return for week 11. Charlie
Batch will start.
According to coach Bill Cowher, the surgery was performed at St.
Margaret Memorial Hospital and only took 15 minutes. Roethlisberger
was said to be resting at home.
As far as what this means to the other Steeler players, look for them
to rely on the strength of their team - running the ball. Willie Parker
will likely be leaned on a little more. Keep an eye on Jerome Bettis
as he's banged up. If he's limited for the game, this could be a nice
day for Parker.
