I agree with him. I think Byron was ok to keep. Batch on the other hand shouldve been let go awhile ago. You could tell from the play calling that Haley has zero confidence in his abilities.1. CB – Marcus Peters – Washington – 6/190

If he said it, he is absolutely right! And many of us have been saying the same thing. I just don't understand why we continue to hang on to THESE TWO CHINA DOLL, as if they are prized commodities. NO ONE wants either of them (particularly Batch). But Leftwich was gifted a starting job in TB, after a year where he basically kept the ship afloat for us--and proceeded to FLOP.
So why would we bring him back again ('10). And again ('11). AND AGAIN ('12). ALONG WITH Charlie Batch, year after year after year...I wasn't hired for my disposition.Comment

Where was the long list of franchise QB's waiting to back up Ben? There is a high percentage chance that a young QB wouldn't do any better then Batch or Leftwich. The Steelers went the route of drafting and attempting develop young QB's. Those players were not good enough. The problem with drafting young developmental QB's is that they don't get enough reps or playing time to be effective when they play.
What killed the team today were the turnovers. I believe the Steelers win the game today if they didn't give the ball away.Comment

This is a crock!! Batch cannot get the ball out without it wobbling. He has no arm strength what so-ever and no mobility. Jerrod Johnson would have had the Browns at least respecting his ability to take off and run. That kid had a strong, accurate arm. Batch is horrible. You can sugar coat it any way you want Batch is horrible.Steelers 2015 Draft???....Go Freak! As in....

It's not a crock and I wasn't attempting to sugar coat anything. Fans can know the facts and continue to ignore facts. Batch made some nice throws and not so nice throws. Sounds like what many would say about just about all 3rd string QB's around the league. It's the same thing that I would say about Jerrod Johnson based on his play in the preseason. Running QB's have a hard time winning games without the ability to consistently hurt defenses passing the football. Like Dennis Dixon had the ability to run when he was with the Steelers but couldn't make defense pay consistently enough in the passing game. Fact, most 2nd and 3rd string QB's in the league are horrible. Some teams value 3rd string QB's so much that they don't even carry one. Oh and the great Jerrod Johnson isn't even on an NFL roster. The situation is what it is. The best hope is that the team can limit mistakes and pull out close games until Ben can return.Comment
