Is that normal?? No backup practices being backup??

You would think with the line's inability to protect the QB (track record), they would do at least 75/25 reps with Ben / Lefty.

I think Leftwich will be much better on Sunday with a full week of practice with the first team. Plus, the weather will be a lot better and there will be so much more emotion and crowd noise and more on the line. I was at the game last night and there was a lot of no-shows cause of the weather and cause it was the Chiefs. That most definitely will not be the case Sunday night at Heinz Field. Leftwich will play better and I already have read a lot of Ravens fans thinking this game is in the bag just because Ben is not playing. Hopefully everybody will pick the Ravens and it will work toward our advantage I can definitely see that happening...Plus, the Steelers are breaking out the bumble bee prison unis again on Sunday and we know how well they played in those the last time they wore them....

Leftwich needs to work on his wind-up, why does it take him that long yo throw the ball? I think if our Defense plays well and pressure Flaccid, then we win the game.
Yep, everyone in the DC area is picking the Ravens, and they even predicted the Steelers would loose their next Tyre games.....that just shows you how much these clowns know about football.

This sucks,of all the god damn games we don't need Leftbitch in is the fockin Rats games.

If he plays then he better step up and sling the ball. He has more then enough weapons to
make this a game or even win it. Hopefully Haley designs a aggressive attack plan and none
of this play it safe bullshit. Throw it all out on the field and let's kick some Rat ***!!!

Who the **** would you people rather have?

Leftwich or Batch?

Leftwich hands down. Can Charlie even throw a 30 yard pass anymore?
