Roethlisberger, Ben (QB)

The woman who filed a lawsuit accusing Roethlisberger of raping her has quit her job at the Lake Tahoe hotel-casino where she claims the assault occurred in the NFL quarterback's penthouse room more than a year ago.
The woman had been working as a VIP host at Harrah's Lake Tahoe in July 2008 when she alleges the two-time Super Bowl champ for the Pittsburgh Steelers lured her to his room under false pretenses and forced himself on her. He was in town playing in a celebrity golf tournament. Roethlisberger has denied the allegations and maintains the woman acted voluntarily at all times while in his room.
Clark, Ryan (S)

Clark may be saying everything he needs to say with his growing silence. The safety is usually one of the team's most talkative players, but he is saying little as it becomes increasingly likely he won't play Monday in Denver due to a rare blood condition that nearly caused him to die after playing there two years ago.
Nearly all of Clark's teammates are urging him to skip the game. The other Steelers safeties are being readied to play, and Clark does not appear as upbeat or as excited as he normally does before a game. Before practice on Thursday, when he often chats with reporters, he sat alone in front of his locker, looking at messages on his cell phone.
Roethlisberger, Ben (QB)

Roethlisberger may be especially eager to go to the no-huddle Monday night in Denver, given how much success the Ravens had while running 31 plays out of no-huddle sets during their 30-7 victory over the Broncos on Sunday.
Roethlisberger excels with the no-huddle. "It's a possibility," Roethlisberger said. "We'll go into it with the mentality that we'll go in with the game plan we've got and, if we need to go into the no-huddle, we'll do it."
Holmes, Santonio (WR)
Posted Oct. 26, 2009 @ 4:43 p.m.
Holmes had two catches for 59 yards Sunday in the Steelers' 27-17 win over Minnesota.
Holmes hasn't had quite the season many expected of him, but he has made big catches when they count, much like he did in securing the Steelers' Super Bowl victory over Arizona.
Ward, Hines (WR)
Posted Oct. 26, 2009 @ 4:42 p.m.
Ward was held to one catch for three yards Sunday in the Steelers' 27-17 win over Minnesota.
The NFL's leading receiver coming into the game, Ward was hardly thrown to Sunday, but that's not completely out of character for a team that has Heath Miller, Santonio Holmes and Mike Wallace. Expect Ward to get the ball much more after Pittsburgh's bye.
