Playing what-if's: If Ben is (gasp!) out for the season would you want Favre to replace him?

Stop....Leftwich was rusty....give the guy a week of preparation....

No freeking way!! I don't care if was till south of his 40's. Seen it all to many times with him, always intercepting the season away in a big spot.

I would rather see Maddox again over Farve in a Steelers uni.

He is like the Steelers James Harrison, YES he is out there, but not what he was, because they are hurt.

Im a homer, but really..... We scored 6 points against the Chiefs.. With lefty...

Someone who can run and throw real quick short passes is needed right now...

The problem with Lefty is that his wind up takes so long that by the time the ball is out of his hands the defense already knows where he's going with it. It's a huge crutch and one that's very hard to overcome for the entire offense.

He makes Tebows throwing motion look like Steve Young's

I'm telling ya'll we shoulda kept Jerrod Johnson at least he could run and he was huge. but most of all young.Is there anyone not on a roster that knows Haley's offense? eventrhough that would never happen.

**Steel4Real** · 11-13-2012, 11:39 AM

Surprised nobody mentions wanting Kurt Warner, since he played under Haley with the Cardinals.

Who would've been the emergency QB if Lefty went down last night. I think in years past it would have fallen to guys like Randle El who had some previous QB experience. Hines has thrown some passes before, maybe we bring him back.

Hopefully Ben will come back to us soon. Until then, I think I like Batch better (assuming he's healthy).

Seriously, this is why I wanted them to draft Moore from Boise st. Would have made for a capable backup and could run Haley's offense.

Right now, our o-line better bring their big boy pants to work the rest if the year, cause we have to run the ball better than we did last night!

Gotta start batch! He's better than leftwich, although that's like saying Rachel Maddow is prettier than Sandra Bernhardt!

How bout Bradshaw......could be his chance to upstage Ben
