Congrats to the Steelers, who snuck past the Baltimore Ravens in the final 43 seconds of the game to win, and cement their place as the 2008 AFC North Division Champs.
The score was a paltry 13-9, a real defensive battle.
To me (and I'm sure to the Steelers as well) - it was just DAMN nice to beat Baltimore, especially on the road.
Their record improves to 11-3.

Special shout out to Santonio Holmes for that outstanding -and quite lucky- footwork (above), reeling that touchdown in at the end of the game. Wow.
Once again, they pulled a win out of their butt in the fourth quarter. I much prefer the 'blow-the-other-team-out-of-the-water' type of game. I get way too nervous when they are behind or nursing a minuscule lead.
But hey, a win is a win. And this was a sweet one.
Now the Steelers are assured a first-round bye in the playoffs. They meet the Tennessee Titans (who lost this week - yay!) next week in another tough one.
One game at a time, guys.
It's only a matter of time.
