ALL OF THE NEWS

Quarterbacks

QB John Navarre (Ari) practiced on Wednesday but is questionable for
this weekend due to his injured finger.

QB Michael Vick (Atl) practiced on Wednesday but is questionable for
this weekend due to his injured shoulder. Both Vick and coach Jim Mora
are optimistic he'll play. "Early indications are that those guys
should be able to play Sunday," Mora said. "That's something we're
obviously striving for."

"I'm looking to play the whole game," Vick said. "It's totally coach
Mora's decision as far as how much we'll play. As of right now, all
that we know is we're going there to win a football game, and I'm
going to play the entire game."

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Michael Vick (Atl) practiced on Thursday
but officially remains questionable for this weekend.  However, he is
expected to play.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Jon Kitna (Cin) will start for the team this weekend.

QB Carson Palmer (Cin) did not practice fully with the team on
Wednesday and is questionable for this weekend due to his injured
knee. Palmer threw to receivers in one-on-one drills, took the scout
team snaps in seven-on-seven, and took just one play in 11-on-11.

"My knee and (quadriceps muscle) aren't strong enough to play the game
today," Palmer said. "But the good thing is the game isn't today. I
still have three or four days to get it to where it needs to be. If it
comes around, my quad can protect the ligaments in my knee, then I'll
play. … I'm pushing the doctors, and they're pushing in the opposite
direction," Palmer said. "We're butting heads right now."

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Carson Palmer (Cin) will likely be the
team's #2 QB this weekend with Jon Kitna starting.

this weekend due to his injured ribs.

QB Ben Roethlisberger (Pit) did not practice on Wednesday and is
questionable for this weekend due to bruised rib cartilage. He's not
officially ruled out but most everyone expects him to sit.
Roethlisberger said he can see the advantages of both resting and
playing. "Each way has its pros and cons," Roethlisberger said
Wednesday. "It's probably good to get your rest in, but you don't want
to get rusty. So we're going to make sure that I go out there and stay
mentally sharp and prepare myself, and just take it from there."

He sounds optimistic he'll be ready for the playoffs. "That's what we
wanted to look at, to make sure it wasn't (broken ribs),"
Roethlisberger said. "I think every football player has had some
injury related to their ribs, and it's one of those things that, as a
quarterback, you take a lot of hits in the ribs and midsection. It's
just a thing that will get better." Tommy Maddox will start for
Roethlisberger if the rookie can't go.

*** THURSDAY UPDATE *** QB Ben Roethlisberger (Pit) practiced some on
Thursday but remains questionable for this weekend.

QB Matt Hasselbeck (Sea) returned to practice Wednesday but wasn't

sprained the ligaments in the bottom of my foot and it's hard for me
to plant right now. But the rest of my body feels pretty good. … Each
day it keeps getting better; hopefully, it will continue to do that,"
Griese said. "But I've never had this injury and I don't really know
how fast it's going to come back."
