The offensive line actually plays better. I don’t think the line likes Ben. I can’t say that I blame them. He is very arrogant. My preference would be to see Byron instead of Ben. I hope that Coach Tomlin doesn’t live to regret Ben starting because he gets off to a less than stellar start. Ben has not been the same since his accident. I only wish that hadn’t happened to him. He was awesome before that. Our line hasn’t been the same since Grimm left. He was an awesome line coach and the Steelers should have done everything in their power to retain his services. I still think the Steelers can win, but my hope is that Ben is up to the task on Sunday. The energy that the entire team gets when Byron Leftwich comes into the game is on a different level.
