Big Ben has looked fantastic early in this game. Mewelde continues to impress (he has both touchdowns so far), and our defense is going to pick Manning yet. We have gotten to him the sack, our defense usually gives him some problems. 14-7 Steelers at the moment, still first half.

Good job by the defense, we forced them to punt and got the ball back in good field position with plenty of time left in the half. Over 8 minutes and we are on our 41. The defense is the first team to get to manning in 3 weeks. The Titans defense didn't get him?

We need to bring Mewelde back next year. He should be a priority to lock up. Not only has he impressed on the field his story off of the field is pretty good as well. He has earned two degrees while in the NFL, This is what they said in the game anyways. The degrees are in finance and accounting. He was also a minor league baseball player for 3 years. At least this is what I thought I head them say, I am not sure I caught all of the baseball part.

On the previous possession we went down and picked up 3 more to run the score to 17-7.

Good deal, Harrison just dropped a 50 yard reception that would have gone for 6.

2:00 warning. It is 2nd down and 4 for the Colts they have the ball right around midfield.

12 yard pass play, first down and ten on the 18. Second and 6 from the 14. Next play, flag down. Holding prior to the pass on the defense. Damn, that moves the chain and gives them first and goal on the 9. 28 seconds left in the half.

Incomplet pass. Manning threw it away (learn this Big Ben, please learn how to do this). 3rd and goal ball on the 2. Timeout Colts it was there last, 9 seconds left 3rd and goal on the 2. They are going for it, touchdown Colts.

Way to go Big Ben. Damn, why do the mistakes that Ben gives up have to be so friggen costly to the team. Learn how to throw the damn ball away at crucial times of the game already.

The crowd is dead quiet now.

Opening drive in the 3rd the Colts drive down the field and tie it up at 17-17.

Well, the 14 points coming from the arm of Big Ben was to much for the Steelers to overcome in a tough loss that finished up 24-20 Colts.

Roethlisberger needs to take a seat on the bench for 1 game. He is hurting the team more than he is helping it.

I saw some of the game. The second half as tough to handle. OJ Mayo was the only reason why I didn't switch channels. He hit 31pts in the game. The Grizzlies simply got out hustled on the boards and struggled to get their offense going strong.

As for the Steelers/Colts game. Hate to say I missed that one yesterday due to work. Ben really should've sat this one out. If he messes around and catches a hot defensive team that will put the big hurt on him. That will spell trouble for the Steelers.
