The Steelers were like night and day. First, they established the run throughout the game. Big Ben made some real smart plays today. He was efficient most of the game and found Holmes and Ward consistently. Miller got into the action on third downs as well. The O-Line blocked well, with minimal penalties. On defense, we didn't do a real good job of getting pressure on Palmer, but we managed well enough with secondary coverage. We need to do a little better in run D as well. We are number one in the league in this department, so we need to play like it. What I was impressed with was the smart play we had overall, meaning very few PENALTIES. How can I say this loud enough? WE STILL NEED TO TACKLE ON SPECIAL TEAMS!!! We give up too much field position on kickoffs. This puts the D in bad positions. Its harder to go 80 yds. for a TD than 60 yds. Overall, good job. We have the next two at home, Ravens and Browns. Let's hope we go to 7-2 with a comfortable division lead.

Of all the wins we definitely need, it's divisional ones. I agree, our special teams is just so frustrating to watch. I'm still upset that the D let Cincinnati convert a 4th & 8, but I felt they played very well, especially Harrison when he stripped the ball with less than 4 minutes to go, such an important turnover. Now the Steelers must prepare for Baltimore, and those games have a tendency to get ugly.
That's my 2 for 2.

If any team can make their "Nation" sweat, it's our Steelers. They should have this division on ice by now, but they can't stand to do ANYTHING the easy way. I guarantee that they'll win the division, but they'll put me in the hospital or a grave wondering which Steeler team is gonna show up this week! They have a bad habit of slopping around against teams they should crucify (Cards, Broncos, Bungals etc etc.) & then playing their butts off against a team that, on paper, should beat them. Oh well, no one ever said being a member of the STEELER NATION was easy!!!

pretty good but i would like to see them do that in the south division where the colts are 7-0 (3-0 in division).. i mean that record is impressive but their losses were really pathetic.. i mean arizona?? denver?? come on... and their division isnt that good and they are playing the worst division in the NFC this year so things couldnt be better for them.. yet they still have two losses in my opinion they should be undefeated..
uhh.. jazzy dont get too excited the pats havnt won today yet... they are still 7-0...

Its cool...Coach of the Year could very well be between a rookie(Tomlin) and a second year coach(Marinelli of the Lions)
But, they'll both be overshadowed by Belichick if the Patriots win the Super Bowl...and the Pats will win the Super Bowl...
