I think they should. Maddox on the sidelines has the ****en Deer in the headlights look.

I am SO glad pitt did not pay this idiot the big bucks this year. Sadly this is the real maddox..he sucks bigtime..

FIRE COWHER!!! This egomanic has made every decision since Rooney picked him over Tom Donahue. Right now this team SUCKS, Offense cant run nor pass, defense hasnt been able to stop the pass the last 2 years and the special teams are the most undisciplined I have seen.

There was a reason why Maddox wasnt around for 10 years and now everyone is seeing it. Put some pressure on him and contain him cause he isnt going to run, then make him force the ball downfied and you get the 4 picks thus far returned for TD's this year.

Cowher fancies himself as the smartest guy in the world when in reality he is an a$$. Did they try to rectify those pass defense problems of last year?? Well lets see they drafted a frickin safety in the first round when they needed a corner back more than anything else. Believe me, Ego head had the final say in who they drafted.

The only good move thus far is that they didnt give Maddox the $$$ he wanted.

Not sure if Batch is the answer but what do they have to lose by starting him next week in Denver.

YES

as a broncos' fan - please put in batch - this way we win by 30.

how many stories will we see this week about tommy maddox coming back to denver - where he was the broncos FIRST EVER #1 choice spent on a QB.

I totally agree with the cowher reply. besides being overpaid (2+mil/yr) he was handed a super bowl team in a weak division and could not win.

I watch his arrogant press conference where he handles softball questions for him to expound on his knowledge. After 11 years it's time to move on to TV talk shows.

Well, I am from the Detroit area and I say put Batch in. Before you all start shaking your head in disbelievement think about this. Batch has a better arm then Maddox, has started more games in the NFL than Maddox, has never had the talent around him that Maddox has, and he isn't flat out retarded and he wasn't railroaded out of the NFL for a reason. I would love nothing more then for them to put Batch in and watch him become successful. For years I was screaming that he really isn't that bad ( no Montana) but because he had a crap team he looked awful. Before they lost Barry though and Herman Moore was still decent he put up respectable numbers. With Ward and Burress I think he can succeed. Starting at Mile High is tough on anyone though. Maddox is not that good, just like Kordell wasn't. It is the system and I want Batch to prove that right badly.

Maddox was good last year because he came out of nowhere and there was an element of surprise as to his abilities. Now, his flaws have been captured on game film by any decent defensive coordinator and Maddox lacks the talent to overcome and his inexperience really shows. No question he should have been benched after the INT for a touchdown in the debacle of the Browns game.
Batch should play no question. He gives them a better chance to win and after Maddox's continued pattern of poor decisions, how can anyone say he should remain the starter. If Maddox continues to start, it will be because of Cowher's ego.

Pittsburgh`s offensive line is horrendus, I am not sticking up for maddox but that is where the problems all start. I listened to Mark Madden`s talk show tonight and he had ed Bouchette the steelers #1 beat writer on. he said to look for bettis to start this week and also for bruener to possibly start to help the pathetic offensive line.
