hooknladder Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 per Profootball talk Ben Rothlisburger is hated by his teamates and his O-line. An o-line that hates a QB won't block for him. The Steelers will probably be forced to start Maddox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are professionals, and if they don't perform because of personal issues they should be cut or traded. I doubt it very much that Maddox would get the start simply because teammates don't like Rothlisburger. :oldrolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moss6 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I thought they hated him last year. Didn't one of the linemen have a grudge that was made public regarding the rookie QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't one of the linemen have a grudge that was made public regarding the rookie QB. 946021[/snapback]     No. The day Maddox got hurt, one of the lineman was asked if he was excited about having a rookie starting at Qb and he said "no".  Yet, he somehow found it within himself to block for Roethlisberger.  This story seems flimsy. The O-line doesn't like him because he wouldn't sign a jersey for them? C'mon.  Sounds like there was not much to write about today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 This story is as bogus as they come. I watched countless "behind the scenes" films from last year. It was obvious with the sideline clips and pre-game clips, that Ben Roethlisberger is very well-respected by his teammates. I've also read countless quotes from players complimenting Ben on how he handles himself on and off the field. Completely bogus article.
