The Pats had as much business winning this week as they did last week with tons of mistakes that usually cost the game. They turned the ball over twice inside of the five yard line after long offensive attacks. It looked like both teams wanted to give the game away because some Vegas gambler had paid them off to play terribly. But the gambler wanting to bank on a Steelers win must have paid the Pats less than the guys paying off the Steelers. So somehow despite an ugly game the Pats beat one of the other great teams in football in their home stadium. Rothlesberger didn't appear to have a clue how to mount an attack against the Patriots defense.

Unfortunately the Pats had two key injuries including defensive superman and bone breaker Rodney Harrison plus the key to the offensive line but frequent committer of false start penalties - Matt Light. Neither of these positions were the ones failing today -- ahem Kevin Falk: Hold onto the ball. We only won the game because Randal El had a brain fart and tried to lateral but hit a Wilson when he had just gotten a massive yard gaining play. Duh! Don't they teach you not to do that in pop warner? I don't mind though. Their pain today was our gain and now Bill Cowher's big chin is scraping around on the ground and he has to face the press.
