Leftwich's management company tweeted that the quarterback tore his MCL. A torn MCL usually means 4-6 weeks of recovery, which is funny because that's when Big Ben will be back. This could hurt the Steelers as now they are kind of forced to start Dennis Dixon. To be honest, they might be better off. I watched Leftwich this preseason, and he is just too slow with his release (like a really bad Drew Bledsoe), so they could be better off.
As I said, I expect Big Ben to be back week 6 (they have a bye week 5), and I think the Steelers will be 1-3 when he returns. If they are do any better then that then the AFC North better get nervous.
