Roethlisberger had his foot stepped on in practice today. Apparently it's no big deal and he'll be totally fine. (I suppose 15 years ago we never would have heard about it.)
Three years ago I would have said the Steelers have the top backup in football in Charlie Batch. Three years later, he is much older and often injured. With a healthy Roethlisberger, I'd predict a 13-3 finish for the black and gold. Without? 9-7? 10-6? The best defense in the NFL doesn't hurt, but I don't have a lot of confidence in Charlie any more. Behind him, Dennis Dixon shows promise but is developing slowly. What do you say we just sit Ben until Week 1?

The Patriots didn't let Brady take a single snap in preseason last year. That worked out awesome...
Well actually, it probably helped Cassel a lot.
