Daunte Culpepper Won't Be Getting His Roll On In Pittsburgh

At least Aaron Brooks sits at home and wonders why he doesn't get any calls from teams looking for quarterbacks. It may have something to do with backwards passes and scrambling for -25 yards before being sacked.

Then there's Daunte Culpepper. He and Byron Leftwich had the good fortune of being flown to Steelers training camp for a workout after backup Charlie Batch broke his collarbone. Both of them impressed however Leftwich is staying and Culpepper is going home. Leftwich got with the program while Culpepper thought he was going to compete for the starting job against Ben Roethlisberger.

PFT seems to think that Culpepper still has a chance to sign if he gets off whatever he's on and realizes that he would only be there to cover for Batch in his absence. You almost want to salute Culpepper's drive to become a starter again. However he needs realize that he's not going to get that chance especially on a team with a Super Bowl winning franchise QB. He needs to latch onto a team and hope the starter goes down so he gets a chance. If he impresses, he'll have a good chance of being signed to a stupid contract by the Ravens cause that's how we do. He'll be able to buy 20 sex boats with all the money he'll get for being mediocre.
