It's another win for Big Ben! The Steelers defense caught Cincy's Carson Palmer twice for safties in the closing minutes. Next up - Washington Redskins.

Another win for Big Ben! A bit closer than I'd like, but a great performance by the 'D' locked it up!

If you count his college record, it is 21. He hasn't lost a game he started in years!

once!

This game wasn't pretty, but I remember the great years real well, and there were some like this then too. Injuries are beginning to build up, so we'll see. Ben made that late TD pass when he had to, that's what counts.

It's been fun.

p.s. -- There were a lot of people here in the 'Burgh who gave four and a half points and were REAL happy about the safety (Steelers won by 5)!!!

And that BUS was rambling like a cement mixer careening down a Pittsburgh hill after someone released the emergency break.

OOPS ! I boo- boo'd! It was twice for intentional grounding, one for a safety! They rattled Ben with pressure from their 'D' but he settled down late in the game. We got help from penalties for sure.

i'm thrilled that the bus still has some gas left. Duce should be back for DC.

D.C. is supposed to be pretty bad. If it's a hamstring, I think they should let Duce rest, but I don't know the specifics of his injury.

It's a long season!

Duce and Bettis healthy at the end of the season! Wouldn't that be a weapon?

I was really hoping they'd lose. Oh, well. We'll get 'em in the AFC Championship game.

The potential for a Steelers-Eagles Super Bowl is quite real now. It'll be the Primanti Brothers cheesesteak with fries sandwich versus the Philly cheesesteak for the side bet in this case.

My money is on Pittsburgh, but the Eagles won't make it to the show.
