Hey y'all. Thanks for your patience this week while I've been down in Southern California hanging out with my folks. Nice Thanksgiving, for sure. Hope yours was as well. I'll do my best to make it up to you this week and down the stretch of the 2010 season. For now, we turn our attention to the Pittsburgh Steelers' tricky Week 12 road game against the Buffallo Bills. Lots of folks are high on Buffalo despite their 2-8 record. To their immense credit, they've won two straight. I personally think the Steelers take care of business tomorrow but we'll just have to wait a few more hours to find out.
Here's a few facts, trends and stats on the two teams' series history, as well as up-to-date season stats for both squads.
