It was a very exciting game. Steelers did deserve the win. I just hope that Carson Palmer will be able to play next season. It would be a loss to the NFL to lose a QB of his caliber.

I could not agree more, Helen...I was just sick watching the replay of that one...but for Marvin Lewis to even insinuate that Kimo intentionally went after the knee is just ludicrous and uncalled for.  Carson is an amazing player and will be for years to come...he has 6 months to recover, so hopefully, his healing will go well...

Yes, Lewis was wrong to insinuate intention. You could see the pained look on his face after the hit. It was unfortunate but it happens. Here's to Carson's quick recovery. Also, hope the Steelers get their injured players back in shape for next week's game.

Aww I'm sad Bengals lost. As an Ohioan I've been waiting for the season since the late 80s lol. Whoever said that they put a ban on steelers buying tickets for today- that just cant be true since the tickets have been sold out for a few days. My husband paid a pretty penny to see the game and he still isnt home yet.

And Poor Palmer! Ouchhh. He just signed a 9 year contract I hope that he's good to go next season.

It wasnt just today that the ban was instituted...its been since the tickets went on sale... ;)

[Helen]

Hooper, I too am an Ohioan and was rooting for the Bengals even though the Browns are my team. Kudos to the Steelers though.
They played a good game.

Ok, off to watch Desperate Housewives now.....lol.

I still hadn't heard anything like that. We went to a rally on Friday where the mayor announced it to be Who Dey Day and all that fun stuff and we tailgated most the night. Still never heard a single solitary word of that and there was a lot of talk that day. Where did you hear that from? Just curious.

The TV announcers also said it during the game that Bengals fans were asked not to "scalp" their tickets to Steelers fans.
They wanted to keep home field and fan turnout in their favor.

[Hooper2092]

Gotcha so it was the announcers. I gotcha now. I watched the game and played pogo and took care of the kids so I could have missed that at some point.

Glad to be of service...ah, what a beautiful Monday it is... :D

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA STEELERS

[Blu]

Poor Steelers...one week of joy. Then, the mighty Colts shatter the dreams of the Bus. Don't get me wrong, I like Pitt, but Indy is too good.

Denver better show up against the Patsies...God I hate N.E.  >:(

As much as I love (and have faith in) the Black and Gold...I must admit, I  already need a Xanax just thinking about that Colts game...

And Go Frickin Denver...I hate those Pats too Blu...

Yeah, I just may have to tone the gloating down a bit... already stressin about the next game. It will still be fun to rub it in a little though  ;D

[foxx]

Ok...so this week's picks are a little dicey-er...Got all 4 right last week...I don't expect the same this week...

Pittsburgh's gonna go into Indy and beat them at their own game...GO BEN GO!  GO BUSSY GO!`
Denver is going to take advantage of home field and all that thin air...
Carolina is going to re-introduce the Bears to Steve Smith...and win in a landslide...
Washington has tons of momentum...they just may win...(Yes, that is my half-a**ed pick)

Whaddya all think? 

I am so frickin' excited...it just gives me the chills!  :D

When it comes to the play-offs, anything can happen. You just never know. Look at the injury to Carson Palmer. Had he stayed in the game, who knows what the outcome would have been? I have my favorites and who I think will win but this is the time when betting money on games is a no-no for me. The only team I think will lose is Washington only for the fact that you can't score 3 points on offense and expect to win a game. You can't depend on your defense to do the scoring for you, lol.
