Nothing, and I mean nothing, brings out the Steeler Football montra and the old #36 jerseys faster than a game in which the black shirted fellas get stopped on a short 4th down conversion. Ask a Steeler fan which is more important: repairing the economy or repairing the goal line offense, and well...you know how the polls will read.
The last thing this team needs three days prior to the biggest game of the year is in house bickering over the offensive philosophy. With all that being said, it remains clear that the running game (with or without a fullback) needs to be stepped up. The more accurate reality is that it was two injuries (FWP's knee and Rashard Mendenhall's shoulder) that have hurt the running game far more than any play calling or roster moves.
Without falling into regression, let's focus on the outstanding victory on Sunday against the hated Cowboys. Here are a few pics from the "luxury" area of Club East.


Steve Matthews and his Montana whiskey get the picture of the day
question: which tight end didn't score a touchdown and help his team to victory?
QUICK HITTERS:
- Game balls to Deshea Townsend, San Holmes, and MP for winning "least hospitable fan" for like the 6th straight year.
- What was the actual temperature at the final buzzer? I could no longer feel my face.
- Kudos again to all Bethel Park grads as their team continues their improbable and historic run. Good luck on Saturday night. A Dawg says to watch out for hard running tailback Lyle Marsh.
