Posted in In a move we speculated on awhile back, the Steelers today put QB Dennis Dixon on IR, ending his 2010 season. The move isn’t that shocking, as it means the team will keep Charlie Batch when Ben Roethlisberger gets back next week.

Is the lack of offense that much of an issue?
Right now let’s face it – the Steelers offense isn’t very good.
