Do you think that Polamalu would have bit on that keeper play?

Can'y say for sure. But history has shown that when Troy isn't on the field, the entire Steelers D seems lost. It's truly amazing to me how one player can make such an overall impact on his teammates. But Troy is a special talent, and everyone else has to work harder when he's out, since he can cover the entire field. That safety was the turning point in that game. Without that extra 2 points, the Steelers kick an easy field goal to tie the game and go into OT with some momentum. Also, there were two blatant missed pass interference calls in the Steelers final drive that could have changed things. But that's the breaks. The next two weeks are big, as we try to stay ahead of the Ratbirds for the division lead and that first round bye.

Ok so the regular season ends, 12-4, with a bye week and the 2nd seed. Not bad I guess I'll take it.

Now its the "wait and see" game to worry about who I have to hate in 2 weeks.

As a lifelong Pittsburgh fan, I have great respect for the Patriots. TB and BB are the best in the business and they did give the Steelers a smacking earlier this year. That said Pat's fans, fyi. The Steelers are a much different team now then when you guys played them. There offensive line has come togother. Ben is playing his best ball of his career. Two rookie WR's are now starting to contribute in a very big way. And most of all, they are getting healthy.
We both have a game before the rematch, but please don't think that if we meet again it will be a repeat of the first game.

Congrats on that big comeback yesterday. That was a great game for any fan of the NFL. Hopefully Pats will win and we'll all have plenty to talk about this week.
