after Maddox got injured. He looked pretty good, the one INT was on his second pass, so I won't worry about that too much. The other came on what looked to be miscommunication between him and Burress (who is terrible again this year, he dropped a pass on the previous play). Of course, he was playing against a pretty weak defensive effort from the Ravens, but I'm excited to have him in there. He looks like a playmaker type player, just doing anything to get a play to work. The offense looked excited to play when he got in there, with Maddox it was just flat.

Ya, it's probably best to keep him in unless he does really bad (it's not like Maddox is anything special)...that's why I'd feel better if Batch was still in there, to step in just in case.
Also, Cowher has a perpetual scowl...even when he's winning, he's over there scowling away.

Maddox is out at least six weeks, so it looks like we don't have to worry about this. The optimist in me says the Roethlisberger's sliding ways will keep him safe from a likely over-zealous Miami rush. Either that, or he'll just get murdered.
