Thank goodness it's the bye week. It may be the only week this season that we don't lose a player for more than a game. I know this year has been rough and for me, it's been most defined by the injuries the Steelers have received. The fact that we're 6-4 after this run of injuries is amazing. The team is starting to get healthy and hopefully can make a run this year (barring another significant injury).
