1. I think the Steelers are going to win the Super Bowl, and I expect Dennis Dixon to hand Ben Roethlisberger, at worst, a 2-2 team when he returns from suspension. The locker room likes Dixon and thinks he should have had more of a chance to beat out Byron Leftwich this summer before Leftwich's knee injury handed Dixon the job. He'll be a handful for Atlanta, Tennessee (away), Tampa Bay (away) and Baltimore to prepare for.

Has this dude ever picked a Super Bowl winner?

Wow....I hope for once he is right.

Apparently the last one he picked was in '95.

I agree Dub. Dixon was the way to go. With our line he makes sense. I would include wildcat, and lots of rolling out packages. I hope the do not make the mistake of keeping him in the pocket.

I don't believe Dixon has the size to run the wild cat effectively.

Consistently, having half the field as an option on roll outs won't get it done in the NFL. It's not a bad idea to roll him out a couple of times. Dixon will have to be effective from the pocket if the offense is to have any success.
