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.

And How Was Your Sunday?

I really wish I could say i watched the Steelers dominate in a 38-17 win over the Houston Texans before a packed house at Hienz Field. Willie Parker ran for 138 yards on 25 carries,And scored 3 times.Maybe this will FINALLY quiet the skeptics that Parker has"lost something" after his 2007 broken fibula.


Also getting in on the scoring parade,Hines Ward,Who caught 2 TD's from Large Ben.I'm sure Hines will smire alot tonight


Maybe it was just injuries that made Troy Polamalu look mortal last season, Polamalu had his first pick nearly 2 years.Here's hoping Troy is back to the game breaking player he was 2 years ago.

Very sad news from the NFL today,QB Tom Brady is done for season after tearing his ACL..Next up, Mr Packer,Jet,Whoever throws cash at him Brett Farve.Sure would be a shame if his leg was turned into hamburger helper.


I am going to try and do a few posts the next couple days,I just learned my schedule is going to be 12 hour days the next 30 days, And no days off. So please bear with me.Maybe this is a good time to ask for guest writers.I know a good amount of the people who read this,And I'm sure your point of view would be very interesting.
