Championship Week
Not alot of negatives coming out of last weeks 35-24 Steelers win over the Chargers.
The running game was back,Willie Parker had 146 yards on 27 carries and 2 touchdowns,Ben had plenty of time to throw the ball,Not just get rid of it due to pressure.
The Steelers held the ball in the 3RD quarter for 14 minutes 43 seconds.Think about that for a second,Yes I'm sure the Steeler haters will say something like the refs helped us,Or we cheated somehow.Bullshit,Plain and simple.That was all offensive line work,The Steelers ran 25 plays in that quarter.Total time of possession Steelers-36:30,Chargers 23:30.Enough said
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Which Brings us to this weeks matchup,The Baltimore Ravens get released from custody for another week,And travel to the Steel City for game 3.
This week should be the same as last,Run the ball,Give Roethlisberger time to throw,Limit mistakes and this should be a 24-20 Steelers win.
I know I may always lean towards my Steelers,And I'm actually giving less of a spread then some places i have been reading.I have seen anywhere from 6 to 10 points.I can't see either team walking away with a huge win,This won't be the very over rated Chargers,This will be a good old fashion winter time AFC Championship battle.And with the bad feelings between these 2 teams,They'll need the week off to get healthy after the battle that they have been through.

Breaking News out of the NFL,NFL Network's Adam Schefter is reporting that Tampa Bay has fired head coach Jon Gruden,And GM Bruce Allen
