Ok, Im pitting this out early...

The Dolphins are on a 4 game winning streak, and they started it by blowing out the Bills...

They have done so behind a reinvigorated Running game. Basically Tua passes for less than 200 yards and De'Von Achane rushes for 100+

Apparently his rib injury is fine... so he will likely play

They are ok vs the pass, but their Rushing D sucks


Here is the thing:
The Steelers are inducting Ben, Porter, and Pouncey into the Hall of Honor at halftime, and they havent lost a home Monday night game since Chuck Noll's last season...

Ultimately the Steelers path to the division title doesnt need this win, but the outside chances to finish in the 3 seed does need it..
Winning out is always the plan, but if they drop Miami and Detroit... then beat the Browns and Ravens, they still get the division...

I think biggest implication on this one is if the steelers win and the Ravens lose to Bengals they essentially have a three game lead with the division tie breaker and would only need to beat the Browns to sew up the division.

The best the Bengals can finish is 8-9. If they beat the ravens again next week (dumb schedule BTW), the best the ravens can finish is 9-8. Basically, we control our own destiny...which of history is any indication, is not the best place to be...

In other words...if we lose to good teams and beat bad teams we are a playoff team.

When deciphered into steelerism language

“We will get beat by the losing and win the more challenging”



Salute the nation

If the Steelers win and the Rats lose this weekend the Steelers just have to beat the Browns and they win the division. They max tge Ravens could have is 9-8 the Steelers would be 9-8 worst and hold the divisional tiebreaker of less division losses.

Yeah, they aren't losing this game, not with these three in attendance.

A few interesting connections with the Dolphins and the Hall of Honor inductees.

Ben Roethlisberger
-September 26, 2004 was Roethlisberger's first official start in the hurricane in Miami. He went 12/22 for 163 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT. The Steelers won 13-3

Joey Porter
-After a successful 8-year career with the Steelers, the Steelers cut Joey Porter to save cap space (but I'd also say because he was a vocal leader within the previous regime). The Dolphins signed him to a big contract and he blew up his second season in Miami with 17.5 sacks.

Maurkice Pouncey
-Maurkice's brother, Mike, was drafted one year after the Steelers' center. The Steelers took Maurkice 1.18 in 2010 while the Dolphins took Mike 1.15 in 2011. Maurkice had the more decorated pro career.

Don’t get down on him to much, his 34-stone trailer court girlfriend didn’t have time for him this weekend……………

Coolie was in town and riding broncs, held onto the handles, and yet barely lasted the 8 second ride………

She ain't heavy, she's DI"s mother


… The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry her
She ain't heavy, she's DI's mother
… So on we go
Her welfare is of my concern
No burden is she to bear
We'll get there

… For I know
She would not encumber me
She ain't heavy, she's DI's mother
… If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
… It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share?
… And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
She ain't heavy, she's DI's mother
… She's DI's mother
She ain't heavy, she's DI's mother
She ain't heavy, she's DI's mother
