Steelers

The Steelers barely beat the Titans on Thursday. (13-10) in a game where Polamalu, leaving in the 2nd Quarter with a left medial collateral knee sprain that is expected to sideline him three to six weeks, had an interception and made great play after great play. He is the difference maker on the field and it was made clear when Kerry Collins ripped apart the defense for a 71-yard touchdown drive in the closing moments of the first half.

I love how all the pundits & blog-posting non-Pats fans are all rooting (openly or not) for the Pats to take the loss this week, and how they’re coming up with reasons why it’ll “definitely” happen (especially imploring the Steelers to use the “blueprint to beat the Pats,” despite the fact that the Pats haven’t lost). I implore some member of the media to stop blowing smoke up their collective Steeler asses to point out that the Steelers schedule has been one of the easiest in the league. Impressively easy. Note these points:
