Perfect Timing...

Wow!  How lucky are we to have a bye week when almost all of our players are banged up?  Ben Roetlisberger has to be the happiest guy in the NFL right now.  First we beat Baltimore in OT, then we beat Jaxsonville IN Jaxsonville, where everyone thought we were going to lose, ( mainly because they beat us in Heinz Field twice last year ) he threw for 239 yards in the first half alone, finishing with 309 yards, and now gets a bye that would allow him to rest and recover from the bad shoulder.  Willie Parker also is pretty happy that he will recover during the bye, and will play against Cinncinnatti, who is 0-5.  Casey Hampton is also dealing with a groin injury, and is expected to play against the Bungels.  Mr. Automatic ( Jeff Reed ) hurt is calf in the Jaxsonville game, we still do not know how severe, but lets hope it isn't to serious and he will be in perfect shape for the rest of the season.

                         But boy oh boy!  What a perfect time for a bye week for the perfect team!!!
