This was the sort of game that I describe as a race to see who loses first. The Steelers put in a valiant effort, converting 0 out of 8 third downs and racking up an embarrassing time-of-possession deficit, but Charlie Batch couldn’t compete with Green Bay’s inability to keep hold of the ball or avoid clutch penalties. Regarding defense, Green Bay doesn’t have Troy Polamalu and they can’t borrow him.
Inside sources tell me that Ben Roethlisberger has made impressive gains on his SOCOM3 high score. On the upside, odds are fairly good that Batch, Randle El or a trained penguin can beat the New Brownies next week.
