Now, granted, Roethlisberger is the exception, not the rule. I still don't see it being much worse than it is.

I didn't make it to any of the preseason games, but can anyone comment on Campbell's ability? I remember him well from college, but he seemed to have incredibly limited play time this preseason.

The only game I can remember was the last preseason and he threw several int's but I think he played fairly well in the first two. I think if Brunell does not put us in the win colum after about five games I'd say get Campbell in.
