Steelers 41, Browns 0
While things may have gone wrong for the Panthers, just about everything went right for the Steelers today. They got 209 yards rushing, and both Ben Roethlisberger and Charlie Batch got TD passes. Willie Parker finished with 130 yards on 17 carries.
Meanwhile, Kansas City knocked off San Diego at home, 20-7, and Jacksonville beat Houston, 38-20. That means that all Pittsburgh has to do is beat Detroit on New Year’s Day, and they’re in the playoffs with the #6 seed. Who they would play may still be in question, too. Cincinnati was upset at home by the Bills, and next week the Bengals have to face a Chiefs team that’s come back to life and needs a win and a Pittsburgh loss to make the playoffs. The #6 could still go to Foxboro before it’s all said and done.
Still, it was very good day for Steelers fans. The only thing that would make me happier is finding Jenn Sterger under my tree on Xmas day.
