This Is Now...

Found December 19, 2011 on One For the Other Thumb:
PLAYERS: James Harrison,  Maurkice Pouncey,  Alex Smith,  Frank Gore,  Michael Crabtree,  Braylon Edwards,  Vernon Davis,  Joe Staley,  Justin Smith,  Ray McDonald,  Max Starks,  Doug Legursky,  Patrick Willis,  Ahmad Brooks,  Aldon Smith,  Carlos Rogers,  Donte Whitner,  Dashon Goldson
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers,  San Francisco 49ers,  San Diego Chargers

Alright, alright. Believe me, I feel you. I now have a special place in my heart for the San Diego Chargers defense too. But this is not about the Ravens, it's about the Steelers. With Assaultimore showing its true colors last night, the Steelers now have a legitimate chance to become the #1 seed in the AFC, and get a much needed first round bye. However, in order to potentially do so, they have a three game season on their hands, starting tonight.Is Ben going to play? I'm not a betting man, but given that the Steelers essentially need to win this game and the next two, I'd say smart money's on him playing. We'll certainly miss James Harrison and Maurkice Pouncey, but winners win, no matter who's on the field. So, without belaboring the point too much - it's go time. Time to strap on the pads and hit some people in the mouth. And certainly no time to waste any more words on the upfront of this blog post. So, I implore you, Steeler nation...Hit the jump an...
