Good, drop your QB pick from Oregon so the Bears can pick him up.

The Falcons didn't want him, nuff said!

I don't think they will be getting rid of Dennis Dixon

Ya know..

I really thought they'd choose Culpepper.
Oh well, at least they still choose Jif.

Lousy choice of backup...Leftwich totally sucks.
The Steelers had better hope Ben stays healthy, at least until Batch returns

What backup currently in the league would you prefer to Leftwich? Please name one. Otherwise, stop the moaning. Culpepper would never accept a backup role and can no longer move (not that Leftwich is Vick). Injuries have always been Left's downfall as they curtailed his status as a starter and no team can keep a non-starter at a starter's salary. Left when healthy was decidedly better than all of the former and present Falcons. Lest we forget, early in his career he had moments when he lit up the league. As a backup it is only "moments" that you are looking for.

Good for him!!! Lets talk Bear's Football! Go Bears! Bear Down!

Leftwich just wants a Super Bowl ring and knows his best shot is riding the pine for the Steelers. It isn't like the rest of the AFC North teams are going to even challenge the Steelers this year and the Patsies are still universally loathed as cheaters and losers of the last SB to be able to win much this season.

big is correct. We are talking backup QB here. Not starter, but I kinda feel he will give Ben a challenge anyway.

Given the players the Steelers have on offense, the Backup QB shouldn't have to do much but turn around and hand the ball to WP or RM, and hit the occasional 3rd and 1 pass for a first down.

The Steelers will be fine with Ben, Leftwich and Dixon.

Average QB at best and definitely better suited as a backup.

He can play....when he not hurt. His ankle is bad. That's the truth. He will hurt it again...and again. It's been injured about 4 times, so go ahead and give him a chance....I am sure that he deserves it. Sometimes things do not work out for a multitude of reasons and things change. That is what happened in J'ville. Unfortunately that is life and we all get stronger from the things that we encounter on our journeys.

That was from last nights episode of Dr. Phil

When are we getting the new Bond movie?

Don't really care.

They stopped being TRUE Bond movies when Sean Connery left. Pretenders......
