00:00Well, the Steelers did it.

00:01They got revenge on the Browns after the snow game.

00:05They got them in Pittsburgh, and they owned them all day.

00:0827-14, and Russ was doing his magic again.

00:12A couple of tutties.

00:14A pedestrian game for him.

00:15He didn't put up huge numbers, but no picks.

00:19Got sacked once, and they dominated the game.

00:23It was easy work, and now they have 10 wins.

00:26They do now have 10 wins.

00:28They go to 10-3 on the season, and as you mentioned,

00:31maybe not the biggest numbers for Russ.

00:33Only had $1.58.

00:34Now, let's also remember, he was missing his best target.

00:38Pickens didn't play.

00:40Was, of course, a late scratch.

00:41They held him out.

00:42They wanted to be cautious with the hamstring injury

00:44that he picked up, which I think is a smart move,

00:47because they were able to take care of business without him.

00:4927-14.

00:51I figured we'd play this one,

00:52because this went to the window for us.

00:54We had Fryermuth on Friday as one of our tutty picks,

00:58and sure enough, Russ finds him on a 20-yard strike

01:00here on CBS.

01:02With the guy who's done that for us.

01:04Second and 10.

01:06Down the middle.

01:07He's got him!

01:08It's Fryermuth for the touchdown!

01:11Moves!

01:14He likes throwing to him.

01:16The guy's become a huge part of the offense now.

01:19Should have been the last couple of years.

01:21Now he is, and he's scoring touchdowns,

01:23and he paid off for us, and he keeps coming up big,

01:27and Russ likes throwing to him, and it's smart.

01:29And the other guy, I like Washington, too.

01:31Enormous guy, 300-pounder.

01:34He'll run right over you and smash you in the head.

01:36So I like all of their receivers, but no pickings.

01:39They still get the win in, you know,

01:43dramatic, beautiful weather.

01:45Think about it.

01:46It was like 46 degrees yesterday.

01:48Perfect in Pittsburgh.

01:49You'd think it'd be a lot colder and miserable,

01:51but it was a beautiful day, and they got it done,

01:54and they had to.

01:55And now they're tied with the Bills.

01:57For me, that was huge.

01:59That is huge, and they have a full two-game lead

02:04on the Ravens, which is really 2 1⁄2

02:06because they beat them once already.

02:08So, you know, they're sitting there now,

02:1010-3, Ravens 8-5, and they do play them next week.

02:13Now, this is a tough stretch for the Steelers.

02:16At Philly, at Baltimore, home for the Chiefs,

02:20and then, of course, finishing with the Bengals at home.

02:22So, road, road, home, home with three playoff opponents

02:26the next couple weeks.

02:28Steelers got, I think, Scotty, two out of three

02:32if they do want to get that two-spot with the Bills

02:35because I think the Bills could lose again this week.

02:37That's going to be a very hard game for them

02:38in Detroit against the Lions.

02:40Well, we'll find out what the Steelers are made of

02:42when they go to the link.

02:43They're going to play a team that's, I think,

02:45one of the best in the NFL,

02:47and it'll show them who they really are

02:49if they can play well against the Eagles

02:51or beat the Eagles.

02:52That would be crazy.

02:54I don't really like their chances at the link.

02:56I think the Eagles are a notch above the Steelers.

03:00I think they're going to play the Lions

03:01in the NFC Championship, but it'll be a good test.

03:04And then, Baltimore in the Charmed City,

03:08and then having the Chiefs on Christmas Day is crazy.

03:10So, those are enormous games for them,

03:13and we're going to find out how good they really are

03:15in this three-game stretch.

03:18Of course, after a win,

03:19we always have to hear from Mike Tomlin on a Monday.

03:22Well, of course we do.

03:24Very proud of his team with the effort yesterday.

03:27Appreciative of the efforts in-game.

03:30It didn't start off the way we would like

03:32in terms of fluidity.

03:33We weren't converting third downs there early on,

03:36but the guys found their traction.

03:38I appreciate the defense providing some short fields

03:40and some splash in an effort to kind of get us going.

03:43It's a team game in that way.

03:45And then, obviously, the special teams

03:47with the splash play down the stretch

03:49to get us out of the stadium.

03:50And that's what teams do.

03:52They make plays in all three phases.

03:54They uplift one another.

03:56When a certain component of it

03:57isn't rolling as smoothly as you'd like.

04:00Thankful for the win.

04:01It's AFC North football,

04:04and we'll take it and keep moving.

04:06Let's go.

04:07Come on, let's go.
