If only Big Ben could have dodged the bathroom, but back to the story at hand.

In between getting ready for new episodes of House and getting the Steelers prepared for Falcons, Mike Tomlin and his shape up was asked about the future of Ben Roethlisberger here is what he had to say:

“I’m going to dodge that one and not artfully,” Tomlin told Sirius NFL Radio (via Sean Leahy of USAToday.com).  “I’m not going to back myself in [a] corner.”

Mike Florio of Profootballtalk.com makes an interesting point that Roethlisberger is in a weird spot, if Dennis Dixon is ultra successful he might not get his job back, so he actually need Dixon to fail to take back control of the team.

Interesting dilemma.
