We haven't talked a lot about the fact that Troy is banged up.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5919494We need to come up big and beat the Jets, while the Saints step up to take down the Ratbirds.
Then the Steelers can rest Troy vs. the Panthers. Seriously, I know, "any given Sunday" and all that. But the Panthers are beyond deplorable. It is painful to actually try and watch them. The Steelers can beat them without Troy, seal up the division, and then have an additional week to rest him. No need to risk further injury if the Browns game is meaningless.
If, If, If...now IF it would only come true.
