It's about time

Oakland has finally finally started to come through. Of course, it's only the beginning, and they might as well continue losing a lot. The offense is still pretty lame, with total of 17 (!) passing yards, but the defense is pulling their act together with two interceptions returned for TDs (and two more just intercepted). I'm especially happy for Warren Sapp who was (and probably is) one of the best all-round defensive players in the league (with LaRoy Glover and Brian Urlacher). Of course, they also have Randy Moss which has been far from stellar since he moved from Vikings to Raiders, but this can be blamed on a never-ending QB rotation...

Pittsburgh on the other hand can't seem to recover from the loss of Jerome Bettis. Their best rusher is not in the league's top 10, the quarterback throws for 271 yards but has four interceptions and a fumble, and the leading receiver is not even in the league's top 20. The magic was there for one spectacular season, and now it's all gone. How about letting Roethlisberger sit out a week or two after a concussion?
