I had to wait a while to write this poem
After a heartbreaking loss to the Bengals at home
Willie ran wild - we were running at will
Unfortunately, we found a need to throw it still
Ben threw some picks - these we might have gotten past
Two other fumbles though sent us down hill fast
First was Ricardo's messed up punt
The game killer if I can be so blunt
We had Cincinnati on a 3 and out drive
Next thing - they're in the end zone - hope still alive
Minutes later Verron's fumble is returned
And once again the Steelers got burned
We still had a chance at the end - Ben was on fire
Marching the Steelers downfield - it came down to the wire
One more interception of Ben and the game was done
We manhandled those Bengals - this game we should have won
Unfortunately neither team played well at all
Coming down to who could hold on to the ball
The road team usually wins - but we both go down fighting
It just makes New Years that much more exciting
It's our bye week now so no Steeler football game
But lots of football to watch just the same
The Ravens beat the Chargers to continue a winning trend
The Browns overcame the Raiders in the end
The Patriots beat the Bengals - that was really great
Even though it's both teams we like to hate
We travel to San Diego to play the Chargers Sunday Night
We're defending champions - we won't give up without a fight
