what's ahead...

at Houston
Tennessee
Jacksonville
at Arizona

New England
Baltimore



I say we need to win 3 of next 4 games.

If they lose to Houston, which I think they will, they need to come back and win the next three against Tennessee, Jacksonville and Arizona. All winnable games but it will be tough to win three in a row the way they're playing. If they can get a win at Houston then it will give them a little cushion, they could even drop one of those other three games.

3 of 4 would put them at 5-2

then they have to beat either New England or Baltimore, just 1-1 in those two and they'll be 6-3

6-3 and they'll be in good shape heading into the final seven games...

at Cincinnati
at Kansas City
Cincinnati
Cleveland
at San Francisco
St. Louis
at Cleveland

Obvi the line situation needs a be fixed as soon as possible. I think Ben also needs to adjust his game given that he has such a horrible line.

Just thought about how big Mewelde Moore came up on that last drive. Gotta have guys like that to help you pull a few games out during the season.

Also, how many game-winning drives is that for Ben's career now?

I want to say that was his 26 game winning drive to go along with his 20th come from behind win in the 4th quarter.

A win is a win. No matter how fucking ugly it might have been.

Are you sure LJ.

This is what I read from that page.

Roethlisberger has the most comeback wins (19) and game-winning drives (25) through the first seven seasons of a player's career.

And the list has 26+ last night

So he is either being credited with one somewhere that he shouldn't, or has one that isn't being credited somewhere.

There are people, mostly browns fans, who have razzed me about barely beating the lowly colts.

It is hard to win in the NFL.
It is hard to win on the road in the NFL.
It is evern hard to win on the road in the NFL on SNF and MNF.

Odds makers usually value a home game as 3 points for the home team.

I think on SNF and MNF that is closer to 7-8 points if you ask me. Teams at home in those two prime time games are alot tougher to beat it seems.

Or because they have 2 great pass rushers and we have the worst lineman in football and the guy he starts over.
