Initial thoughts are that this was a "must win" game (even though it was the Brownies) and the Steelers did what they needed to do to win.
Steelers move to 4-2 , and with BOTH Cincy and Baltimore losing this week, our boys are now tied for first in the AFC North.
Benny throws for 417 yards and two touchdowns. What else can we say about him? It's way to early to drop a M-V-P chant but really, would you rather have anyone else at the helm? Drew Brees and Peyton Manning do not exist to us......
Captian Awesome, Hines Ward continues to prove he is one of the best receivers in Steeler history. Old #86 finished the day with 8 catches for 159 yard and a touchdown. Love that guy!
Mike Wallace is still ballin'. The young pup is really gaining Ben's trust as he grabbed two passes for fifty-one yards and had a twenty yard end-around run that would have made Walter Payton smile.
The Law (Timmons, for you newcomers) dropped Anderson twice and seemed like he was everywhere, today.
We'll get our recap pants on tomorrow (PLENTY to discuss) - but, what's with the fumbles dudes? That was yucky -
FIVE turnovers in THREE minutes, between both teams, did not help from preventing Tequilla shots. Ah well, we'll live....
Is anyone but me concerned that we have yet to beat a team with a winning record? Next week will tell a lot about this team.

Ward > You
As Comcast decided to air the Gayvens/Vikes game instead of the Stillers in my area, I can't comment too much on the game except for what I observed from ESPN's gameday. Ben and Hines went off, waayyyyyy too many turnovers, glad to see Troy back, got the W. Next week is the real test...
