steelers played championship football in the 2nd half. mendenhall is picking up steam and is gonna be a big factor the 2nd half of the year. cant forget about my boy mike wallace nice td!! mendenhall showed out tonight on monday night football and if he keeps improving like steve young said we are gonna be unbeatable.

Good to see that the Steelers were able to weather the storm from the first half to make some things happen for them in the second half. Big Ben went wild, Shad Mendenhall definately ran wild for 22rushes for 155yrds. Ward, Holmes, and Wallace came through when it matter. Polomalu took Buckhalter to the woodshed on that CB blitz and was able to get a good INT off Orton after he overthrew the pass. Good win by the Steelers. Now it's back home to face Cincinatti who they owe one to after losing to them in Cincy.

He needs to stop coughing up the ball in the red zone. Last night he got away with one, I think it was a fumble to be honest about it. It wouldn't have hurt the team against the Bronco's, but it is a bad habit of his. He looks like he is molded from granite, you'd think he would be able to hang on to it better, he must have some small hands or something.

I think the game ball should go to: Tyrone Carter, he stepped up big time in the secondary and set the tone for the defense with his pick 6, Orton played more conservative after that interception.

I think Brett Keisel deserves a big attaboy as well. He fits right in.

Cincy is playing as well as anyone in the league, that will be a tough game. If Palmer is allowed to pick the defense apart the way that Orton did to start this game, it could get ugly real fast. Benson has been solid all year, and continues to put up big numbers, their running game is legit and it opens up their offense. The Steelers are good at shutting down the run, so that should benefit the Steelers some.

Just because Lamar took a few boxing lessons doesn't make him a ringer, Nuggets win by KO by the end of the 3rd round.
