Playing not to lose..

It's a few days after the Monday night game against those dirty birds the Balitmore Ravens and although the Steelers eeked out a 20-19 victory I'm still pissed.

It has to be obivous to anyone who has watch Bill Cowher for any period of time that he cannot coach in pressure situations. He is indecisve and hesitant.

During the game Cowher calls a timeout on 4th down with 6 seconds on the clock and the Ravens have the ball. The problem is that the Ravens did not have any timeouts and could not have stopped the clock. Luckly the missed the field goal that followed but it could have easily cost the Steelers the game.

The Steelers are 5-2 going to Lambeau to play Bret Farve and his Green Bay Packers and I'm a little nervious. Big Ben went under the knife this week for his knee injury and this means Charlie Batch will be starting. It also appears that Bettis will be on the shelf again.

Some good news is that Staley is slated to return...hopefully he can play well and help spell "Fast" Willie Parker who got absolutely hammered against the Ravens.

The Steelers will have to man-up to pull out a win against a desparate Packer ball club.


Go Steelers...
