I know how the Steelers can win this week

[Zoltri]

Start Tommy Maddox at QB...or at the very least start him in the 2nd half if Big Ben cant move the offense.

I am sure many of you will disagree but I dont like rookie QB's this time of year at the same time put a wrench into the Pats game plan.

I disagree for a few reasons.

1) It won't put a wrench in the Pats gameplan. They don't play that much differently with Maddox.

2) Maddox is not better than Rothlisberger (sic)

In fact, you could call Maddox a playoff rookie. I can't remember how many times he's actually played in the playoffs. But it can't be more than once.

honest, dumb question:

What does (sic) mean?

Alright, 'wrench' is not accurate...how about 'wrinkle'?

It's used to point out a probable spelling error.

As far as I know, it stands for "Spelling Incorrect".

I could be way off with that though. That's just how I've always interpreted that particular acronym.
I know I have at least the meaning correct.

You usually use it like this. Like if you're quoting a homeless person and he writes "I dunt kno bout dem wite kids," you'd put (sic) after that to show the reader it's not your mistake.

That's fair.
It would indeed be a wrinkle the Pats weren't anticipating.

The only way I can see that it would be better for the Steelers is if Ben is actually injured.

I was expecting a picture of belichick and brady tied to a railroad track wile-e-coyote style.

I will be rooting for the steelers cause I [censored] hate the pats, but the steelers are screwed.

Everyone jump on the bandwagon!

It's fun!

I don't anticipate a big victory for either team. No matter what people are saying, it's going to be a close game.
