Bill Cowher Makes Decision To Start Maddox!

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher has decided to start quarterback Tommy Maddox over Ben Roethlisberger in Sunday's game in Baltimore. Ben, Pittsburgh's #1 starter, is almost back from knee surgery, but will be relegated to back-up for this week's contest. Charlie Batch is out with a broken finger and wide receiver, Antwaan Randle El will be the third quarterback. Since Maddox had a shaky start against the Jacksonville Jaguars, a game that Pittsburgh lost, the Steelers have been hesitent to put him back under center. Now, they have no choice if they want Roethlisberger to be ready to face the league leading Colts Nov. 28. Let's just hope that Maddox's second half performance against the Browns gave him enough confidence to hang onto the ball and get us another win. Get the rest of the story. Listen to Cowher's coments. Play Audio
