What a bunch of girls.
I have to admit that Dallas played a damn tight game till it came unraveled on them.
Watching TO doing his act on the sidelines was embarassing. Why he's still employed is a mystery to me.

Cuz he can catch a ball thrown to him while running really really fast from other guys trying to kill him!


gawd I wish I had talent to make me a gazillion $$$.

What a way to win a game though.

I expect TO to shoot himself in the leg any day now.
He's got that kind of class.

With no offense to speak of, I'm scared to death what's gonna happen to my boys the rest of the season. It's gonna be a hell of a grind.
I'd like to shake the hand of every one of the Steelers just for going out and playing 60 minutes of ball every time they hit the field.
If they don't score another point the rest of the season, they're still #1 in my book.
I couldn't be more happy with how Mike Tomlin has cleaned up the cocky disrespectful unsportsmanlike bullshit this year, too. Add that to the work ethic and team play they've shown this year and I can't think of another team I admire more.
They just keep getting better, too. I'm just flat all-around impressed with the entire organization, far more than any time in the last 20 years.

I learned a rule today, too.
I thought the ball had to break the plane, period. I didn't know your feet could be in and the ball out of the endzone and it still be a touchdown.
I like it, though.

Bring on the Titans

We don't win pretty, but we do win. That's all that really matters.

Amen,

We don't win pretty. That is the Steeler motto. My opinion is that the ball DID NOT break the plane. My apologies to Ratbird fans everywhere, but it could be worse. You could have won!

Sorry for being late to the party. I got home a little bit ago from a friends house and I gotta say that was close. Talk about a DEFENSIVE game. A win's a win!!

[acarr]

What a win.

[shilala]

I was worried about Baltimore. Not even a twitch about the Titans.
Tennesse hasn't played a ball game yet. The Steelers should choke them out.

The D is giving up 13 points a game this year, that's up from what's usually about 11. I was surprised when I saw that.
11-3 with the toughest schedule in the nfl ain't too bad.

Congrats Steelers fans!

I'm still holding out hopes for a Ravens playoff run...Time will tell.

Congrats on the win Mikey!! I'll get your payment out this week sometime...Ya bastid

Coach T for coach of the year!

You know it was good game, and I was trying to find out a way to express it. I thought this did a great job of it! GO STEELERS!!

Enjoy,

Good day today minus Ben's injury. He'll be good to go before playoff week. Go Steelers

Ben hasn't thrown the ball well for weeks. His shoulder's a mess and he's been a liabilty. Don't get me wrong, I love him to death.
I just worry that his bad shoulder is going to be the end of the Steeler's run. Add a headache to that and he just really needs a break.
Byron has shown he can get the job done. If Ben could get an extra week on top of the bye week, I really think he can take the team the whole way. If he's forced to play the first playoff game I think we're goin' home early.
I knew Ben would get hurt if he was in past the first quarter today and called it before the game. Why Mike had him in there in the condition he's been in is beyond me. I know Ben wants to play, but if he'd sat out this game and the bye week he'd have been in great shape for the playoffs.
I fear it was another "young coach" strategic misfire that's gonna cost us dearly.

I can think of MUCH WORSE backup QB's than Byron Leftwich...

Kerry Collins is probably a better backup, but I digress


Best wishes to getting healthy, Steelers... Would LOVE for my Titans see you in the AFC Championship*



*yes, I know there's a lot of football left

I agree with you 100%. When I saw Ben playing today, I was like, " WTF? What is the reason would you put him in there?" Everyone knows that he has been playing hurt, and he has nothing on his passes. If the offense doesn't start to produce, this will be a 1 game, see you next year, playoffs for us. The defense can do it all.
When I was in Pittsburgh early this year I had the chance to talk to the Events Coordinator for the Steelers. He told me that when they gave Big Ben his new contract, the front office had to restructure alot of peoples salaries within the franchise, to come up with the money. Doesn't seem to me that they are protecting the franchise QB = investment. How many times he been sacked in the last 3 years?...... almost 150 times I think.
I just think that it was a real bad decision and missed opportunity for Ben to get healthy. We shall see in 2 weeks.
I just think that it is a waste of the best Steeler Defense since the Steel Curtain, not to do all you can to make the offense more productive.

Very well said and I couldn't agree more,
THAT's ALL
