A Happy Thought

Pittsburgh 13, Baltimore 10.

The first half was anything but a serenely enjoyable football game for me, but the way the Steelers hung in and played a great second half was wonderful. The key turnover in the late fourth quarter, followed by Roethlisberger's pushing off Suggs to save a sack and then Redman breaking tackles on his way into the end zone on 3rd-and-9...these are serene, yet exciting, thoughts.

The Steelers are in position to gain the #2 seed in the AFC if they can beat the Jets and win at least two of their other three games. The despised Patriots, though, are poised to be the #1 seed. This could get interesting....
