Yeah it was a bad Sunday

Yeah it was a bad Sunday, as a Steeles fan I am feeling low after Sunday's defeat against the Oakland Raiders. For a fan, the loss is especially painful because the Steelers were favored to win the game. Turnovers and missed opportunities combined have me raising the obvious question - did Big Ben come back too soon?"As much as I like Ben, I still think he needed another week off. He's great. He had a couple of plays here or there. We're Super Bowl champs, we're going to make it but I feel that the team has lost its heart."They came in with big heads and haven't delivered on their promises as Super Bowl champions. The only bright spot was that I got to watch Cincinnati get Vick-timized by Michael Vick who had his way with the Bengals defense Sunday, leading the Atlanta Falcons to a 29-27 triumph over Cincinnati. Carson Palmer kept it close for the Bengals, throwing for 266 yards and two touchdowns, including a 55-yard scoring strike to Chris Henry that cut the Falcons' lead to 29-27 with 3:41 to go. But Vick helped the Falcons run the clock down to 19 seconds before a punt pinned the Bengals at their 17-yard line, where Palmer fumbled one play later while being sacked.
