| In the ugly but true game
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Tennessee Titans
This was one of those game where unless you were there you wouldn't believe it. Right from the start things were just not looking good for the Steelers. Vince Young's first past attempt was intercepted by Polamalu and after a return of a few yards he fumbled it and it was recovered by the Titans. The Titans then marched down the field and capped off the drive with a Young to Troupe scoring pass. The Steelers offense took the field after that and good never get the offense in gear. Punt after punt for the Steelers. The Vince and Ben show hooked up again for a td score at the end of the first quarter making it 14-0. In the second quarter Young threw another bad ass which was intercepted but again during the return the Steelers fumbled it again. Roethlisberger wasn't helping the Steelers case either as he was erratic all over the field throwing his share of interceptions. Bironas kicked a field goal near the end of the half making it 17-0 at the half.
The second half was nothing more than a turnover-punt fest. The Steelers D was holding up the best they could and the Titans D was all over Big Ben like a flies on crap. Back and forth the teams went as neither could get any points. Everytime one of the teams was driving it was stalled by a turnover. Including yet a third inteception by Young that was fumbled by the Steelers on the return. Thats right, three times the Steelers fumbled the ball after a interception. The Steelers threw more red flags this game than they had. The Steelers tried to remove the goose egg off the board by countless turnovers in Titans territory ended any dreams of that.
In the end the teams combined for 16 turnovers. 12 of which came on interceptions. Roethlisberger threw 4 while Young out did him with 8. What an ugly game in Tennessee. The Titans get the victory and the Steelers go home wondering what if?
