As the Pittsburgh Steelers plan for the Kansas City Chiefs, the quarterback question continues to loom. 

Both Ben Roethlisberger (knee) and Michael Vick (hamstring) have been hampered with injuries. Head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters that he is "assuming" that Landry Jones will be the team's starter on Sunday. 

Roethlisberger and Vick both plan on practicing this week, "but Landry is the healthiest one," Tomlin said.

Jones, who repaced Vick, completed 8 of 12 passes for 168 yards and 2 touchdowns.
