Not All Milk & Cookies For Steelers

Probably a weird thought after just getting smacked around by them, but I noticed that some Steelers players are feeling some pain (along with their elation). Ben Rothlisberger (shoulder), Marvel Smith (groin), and Deshea Townsend (heel) are all hurting after last Sunday's physical battle.

I only point this out as evidence that the Texans didn't just lay down. They got man-handled, but they put the hurt on a few of the Steelers as well.

That’s fine and well, but the Texans walked away with their collective tail between their legs. The Steelers, physically beaten up or not, strutted away as the victor.

I Think...

If we get that first down, things would have been different. I still don’t think we would have won, but the confidence issue would have been different……I think……I hope.
I fully expect a whoopin’ of the Black Birds this week

GO TEXANS!!!!!!!!!

+1

the first half woulda been more of a battle.

If Big Ben still is injured, who knows…

Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!

I agree with that.

Lame as it might be, getting screwed on two consecutive spots clearly took whatever wind we had right out of our sails. If they get the right spot on either of those (especially fourth down), I believe we put points on the board on the first drive and things might have been at least watchable.

Yay, sports.
