Bettis and the Pitt D scare me more than Rothlisberger-

[OpIv37]

the fact that he's sitting can't hurt Buffalo- I doubt Maddox will step in and throw for 300 yards. But Big Ben has been a bit of a caretaker this year- he's had an excellent team around him and only had to minimize his mistakes to win. He will be a great QB in a year or two- right now he's just a guy in the right place at the right time.

The running game and the D are why Pit wins games. We need Williams and Adams to have a huge day against the run and force them to beat us through the air with a backup QB.

BTW does anyone know if Ward is playing?

If they have a pimple they will probably sit

I tried to say the same thing a couple of times in another thread. Very few rookie QBs have ever been blessed with the overall team and the weapons that Roethlisberger has.

they are probably saying the same thing about Willis and our D which is why they will sit their starters.

Big Ben had a great year...in a Mike Krusczek kind of way.
