Ben Roethlisberger-Martavis Bryant relationship crucial for Steelers' offense

PITTSBURGH -- It's about time Ben Roethlisberger and Martavis Bryant head to Dave & Buster's or Starbucks or whichever establishment facilitates a good, long talk.

Bryant's comments to ESPN's Dan Graziano about wanting to have a "man-to-man" with his Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback are a bit surprising, largely because the conversation hadn't happened yet. Bryant, suspended for the 2016 season, rejoined the team for offseason workouts in May, and the two spent a month in the same offense together before players broke camp in mid-June.

Apparently, they completed a few passes, exchanged pleasantries and that was it.
