DEVELOPING: Steelers Join Packers In Dallas

Okay, folks...

Figure out who you're rooting for starting...

NOW!!!

it's the Packers meeting the Steelers in the Roman Numeral Classic...

It was, really, a game of two halves as the world thought with a 24-0 lead, the Stteelers had it all wrapped up by late in the second quarter. BUt a field goal to end the half, and 16 more unanswered points made the Steelers earn it, 24-19 over the New York Jets.

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger was solid, if not downright unspectacular going 10-of-19 for 133 yards and two interceptions. But Rashard Mendenhall picked up the slack running for 121 yards and catching 2 passes for another 32 yards.

The Steelers defense clamped down on the Jets holding them to a total of four net yards by late in the second quarter, but Mark Sanchez rebounded for 233 yards passing on the day-when both teams knew the Jets were going to throw in the second half.

Here's Ben's TD run where, seemingly, the Jets ignored him until it was too late...

You know you can spend a few hundred bucks and watch the game outside JerryWorld on big TV monitors...??? Attendance of the game is supposed to exceed 100,000 butts-in-seats...

More when we know more...
