The Steelers completed a great 4 win streak to enter the buy week, including yesterday’s great defensive win over the previously undefeated Vikings. They are now 5-2 and tied with Cincinnati for the AFC North Division lead.

This season has been a series of nail biters, one after another (except for Cleveland, hee, hee, hee :-). The Vikings game was another last minute (literally) success story. The deal was sealed because of an interception of old man Brett Favre which was run back 83 yards for 6 by none other than Atlanta’s own Keyaron Fox, who was in the game because Timmons was hurt. Come on, you can’t script this stuff. Who would believe it? How many heart attacks and strokes can be traced directly back to the Steelers this season? They are driving up the cost of health care in America. PLEEEEASE can you just CRUSH someone??? Obviously this is just greed on my part. I am happy with a win, whether it is by 1 point or 100 points. A “W” is a “W”. We’ll take it!

Seriously, the Steelers can use this buy right now. Troy is still healing, Timmons and Kirschke were hurt in the Vikings game, and several other Steelers are nicked up. The two weeks will give them some time to heal up a bit and be ready for the next (currently) undefeated team they face – the Denver Broncos in Denver on Monday Night. Rest up guys and enjoy the break.

Still alot of season to go, and no reason why they can’t defend the title again this year. Go Steelers!!!!!!

Note to Ryan ClarK: Don’t play in Denver if there is any risk to your health. It isn’t worth it! The game will wait a week for you to come back.
