Dennis Dixon will be the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback when they open their season Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. Pittsburgh planned to start Byron Leftwich the first few weeks of the season while Ben Roethlisberger served his suspension, but Leftwich sprained a knee in the Thursday's preseason finale. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Dixon earned the job over Charlie Batch with his strong play in the preseason. Dixon will likely start the first four games.
