Browns take this in a late 4th quarter comeback 21-17.

Hines Ward is questionable due to a hamstring injury, it was just two weeks ago that he was questioning Big Ben about his injury. I wonder what kind of behind the scenes crap is going on over this injury?

[SD2042]

Ain't no telling. It's bad enough to lose to KC and to the friggin Raiders. If they lose to the Browns @ the Dawg Pound and it's a high intense rivalry at that. I won't know what to say at that point.

Good to hear that Ward will play in ths game. Better question. Will the Steelers come on with it?

[SD2042]

The game is going as expected. Grind out defense with the offense coming far and between. Considering the Steelers situation. They need to generate some offense yesterday.

[SD2042]

Browns struck first with a 3pt field goal.

[SD2042]

Big Bens gets sacked on 3rd down. Steelers to punt.

[SD2042]

Steelers D did the job to make the Browns to kick it back to us.

[SD2042]

Near the end of the first half. The Steelers find themselves down 10-0 after a rushing TD by Jennings of the Browns and two 3pt FG kicks by Dawson.

[SD2042]

Reed kicks a FG to get the Steelers on the board b4 the end of the half. FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[el loco]

I got the score wrong. Unfortunately, I did predict the winner.

How is that Big has Ben can get sacked 8 times in a game, and Dixon doesn't get sacked once in the previous game against a tougher defense?

[SD2042]

That loco is a great question. Ben held that ball too long at times and the O-line didn't hold up on the protection. Dixon was lucky against the Ravens when he played up front.

As for the game itself. Completely dissapointing.

Do we fight for a playoff spot, or do we pack it in?
