So much for this season. The Steelers were obliterated last night by the league leading Indianapolis Colts, who held the struggling Pittsburgh offense to under 200 total yards. It was pathetic. The Steelers looked very strong earlier this season, but the offensive line, and subsequently the running game, have fallen apart. Gone is the dominant, clock-controlling rush attack from last year. The defense did all they could - including an interception by Polumalu that set up the only Steeler points of the night - but with an offense that can't even get a first down, it's tough to win games. Peyton Manning was perfect as always - the very first offensive play by the Colts was an 80 yard touchdown- Edgerrin James easily rushed for over 100 yards - the first back to do so against the Steelers since early last year - and the undersized Colts defensive line beat up on the uninspired Steelers.



All is not lost - the Bengals come to town next week, and the Steelers whooped them in the last meeting. This will be the biggest remaining game on the schedule, and the Steelers absolutely have to win it to hold on to their playoff hopes. Earlier in the season, I'd be confident that Pittsburgh would squish the Bengals, but right now, I'm not so sure. I can only hope that the Steelers find their offensive rythm again - they look like the friggin' Ravens right now.

On a personal front, I've got a job interview coming up, part-time job with great pay. I'll write something on this forgotten blog of mine if I get the job.
