Strength of Schedule
Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the QB position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Fantasy Analysis

A much better real QB than fantasy option. 2007 is an aberration, he's at his best when his throws are limited, letting the defense and running game dominate the game. Routinely over drafted in 2008 he offers decent value this year as a quality backup, especially since the offensive line was not addressed (again) this offseason so they will still be throwing inside the 5 yard line.

Passing: 3500 Yards, 20 TD, 15 INT.
Rushing: 150 Yards, 2 TD.

Pittsburgh Steelers Team Talk
Man, what's up with losing at home to the crapball Raiders? I'm bumbing about the Pats losing at Miami. But I can console myself somewhat by saying, Well, at least we didn't lose to the friggin Raiders....
 
.............Can Tomlin's plan to turn around the defense really work, or is the season over for the Steelers?...
 
I'm thinking we can still get in. We have to have Ben and Polamalu though. Anything less will prove to be the end of a promising year. I'm still disgusted with the chokes we've had this year. We should have beat the Bengals both times, the ...
 
Will the running game pick up? How much are we missing Polamalu? Can Ben do everything on offense? Will the refs continue to let people hold Harrison every other play?...
 
From National Football Post: [quote:2c4c14db4a][size=18:2c4c14db4a]Tavern talk[/size:2c4c14db4a] 15. Wide receivers Limas Sweed and Kevin Curtis will be available for trade this week. Do you think anyone takes one? I doubt ...

Draft Analysis
Round 5, Pick 3
Positives
Coming off a 3,000-plus yard season with a career high TD total of of 32 and a passer rating that exceeded 100 with only 11 interceptions. Add to that Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, Heath Miller, Nate Washington and Willie Parker, Big Ben will have the same tools in 2008 he had in 2007...
Negatives
He's not Tom Brady?
Draft Strategy
QBs account for a little over 15% of the total team score in this format and I wanted to make sure I got a guy who was at the least average for the top 12 QBs, Ben meets that, and in all liklihood, will exceede that this year. (Contributed by: mrkkti)

Round 4, Pick 8
Positives
Solid QB. Happy to get him here.
Negatives
Offense line needs to hold up better.
