It seems that the offense plays alot better when he is on the field.

The Steelers should definitely start Charlie Batch of Roethlisberger. I attended the Steelers and Falcons game in which Big Ben got that concussion. So the Steelers bring in Charlie Batch and don't miss a beat. He leads a couple of great drives to force the game into overtime. Batch has played SOOOOOOOO much better than Roethlisberger. Roethlisberger has twice as many INTs as TDs, those are not stats that get you a starting job in th NFL. Big Ben is so overrated.

I LOVE Charlie Batch, however he used to be a starter in Detroit and did not do too good, yeah it's Detroit. I do not know if you'll relatively use the QB ranking, he best began the primary recreation and got here in in the course of the Falcons recreation whilst Ben suffered his moment concussion. Charlie is by and large one of the most great again united statesin the league (I cannot do not forget what website, however any person had him within the most sensible five). I do not know if he is "too well" to be a again up quarterback, however I'm certain there are a few groups that could supply him a shot to be the starter. Cheers!

I think that they're playing Ben to help him learn. If all you do is win games and playoff games and Superbowls, and never lose, you never learn how to adjust your game or play in adversity. Batch is a good quarterback, he manages the game really well, but it's hard to get to Ben when he's being protected and he's given enough time to throw! Ben is a young quarterback and as long as he can stay healthy, he'll be a great asset to the Steelers! Go Big Ben!

ok, this is getting old but here goes..........Ben is the QB, Charlie is his back up, Ben will continue to play as long as he's healthy, there have been times when it probably would have been best for him to sit, like against the raiders, but not now. Ben is the qb of the present and future for the steelers and will not improve if he sits on the bench, he needs to play to get better, and he will get better, the team will get better, and it may not happen until next season, but i think this year will serve as a good learning experience when the steelers come back next year and kick ***.

Because Ben still has an amzing record as the Steeler starter. He led them to the Super Bowl Last year. You can't bench him just because he has had a few bad games. And trust me, as a fan who has been to several games this year, there are more problems with the Steelers than just Ben's play. The offensive line has been porous, our secondary couldn't cover my grandma, and our special teams has been horrendous. And we are 32nd in the league in turnover ratio(-11).

Charlie isn't the starting QB and I have no Doubt Ben Can fight throu this Funk, thats all it is a Funk.
So what if we lose, some games this year big deal. We will fight hard in every game we have this season and next season we will be the team you expect to lose, and we'll kick A**.
Go Steelers!

Ben led them to a SB win and he is their starter. I think Bill has faith in Ben and Charlie is a second stringer for a reason.

because the media and the fans are blinded by Big Ben's ora. Big ben is not himself. Not sure if he's giong to be himself again. It is time to move on and do something that works for the team. Stop this big ben love and think about the team.
