I don't see any way the Ravens can win this game. They managed only ten points last week against the weak Colts D - how will they do against the Steelers? And the Ravens vaunted 'D' is in decline. And if they lose this game the playoffs are gone too.

Time for Ben to silence any remaining doubters.

BTW, could any team have an easier schedule than the Eagles?

The Super Bowl also is where no rookie quarterback has gone, at least not as a starter.

"It's hard to think of him as a rookie because I think he's earned the respect of all the veteran guys," said Jerome Bettis, a 12-year veteran. "Just through his play, how he's been able to manage the games and be consistent enough to win football games. The notion of the rookie kind of went out the door after we started winning and he didn't play like a rookie." ------

Snow flurries and around 23 degrees herein the 'Burgh right now. Ben's been looking real happy all week in the papers and in the news. Here's hoping he's still smiling at around 4:15 p.m. today.

Yoi, double yoi!

The article seems a bit ambiguous to me: a win today not only gets Pittsburgh the bye, but also guarantees home field advantage throughout.

Word on the street is that the Steelers' locker room ain't the happy place it should be at this point. Some of the veterans seem to think Big Ben is getting a little too big for his britches.

the kid's looked more ordinary as of late, but keeping it in context, his poise at that age is really something. new england's slip-up in Miami sets the table for the Steelers, and a potential rematch with those Pats in Pittsburgh.

I can't believe how this one man, Big Ben, has affected me. My husband is the football fan. But one Sunday I saw this kid throw one pass after another and I was HOOKED. Now, I know more about this team than my husband.

What is is about Roethlisberger?

As a Giants fan, my season ended early this year, so I must say:

GO STILLERS!!!
