    If Batch is still so capable, why on earth did he not get into the game last week?

    Leftwich was playing awful, got injured, began playing pathetic, and still didn't get taken out. He was shorting routine 10-15 yd passes straight into the ground, I don't think I've ever seen an NFL QB do that.

    Anyone?

    Ive seen it happen and tha mans name was donovan mcnabb. This is clev chance to get one from the big bad bully. Gota take clev here, hoping it gets to 3 or 2.5 so I can buy it to 3. Perfect point on why batch didnt gt put in last game vs ravens. And if batch gets hurt who goes in from there?

    How many pick 6's will Batch throw? If he throws under 2 Pitt will win.

    Batch has a lot of experience to control the game enough for the win. It will be a grind with Pitt running the ball all day against a Brow s team that gives
    Up the ground yards. Labeu is 17-1 against rookie qb's. plus, for wahtever reason Pitt plays better with Ben watching from the sidelines. Thats why I pounded them.

    Their defense is way better. Charlie Batch started couple seasons back when Ben suspended and they still won. He doesn't have to anything special just has to manage the game. Running game and defense can get it done.

    I think people will be surprised when this one flys over with Pitt winning by 2 td's.

    It wouldn't surprise me if they win 28-7 or something like that. That being said, Batch doesn't have the arm that he kinda-sorta used to have.

    The line was an absolute joke. Pitt is 7 points better than Cleveland w/ me as their QB. Batch will just have to manage the game for them to coast to a W.

    Not saying that but if you can't follow this trend if 16 of 17 then what's the point in betting? I do it for money. Trends in professional football, especially division games matter. I think this is either a pit play or no play at all.

    Using that trend would be like following a trend with Denver from last season when Tebow was QB.

    Rothlisberger <> Batch just like Tebow <> Manning

    Yup, terrible to look at trends like that. It's when someone says X team is X - X and X against the spread since 1990 in a certain situation.

    1) Post made before the 2nd Pitt score which was only made possible by a penalty not by Batch

    2) Scoreboard
