Steelers Hotline: Lee Flowers among others say that the Steelers will run the table for the remainder of the season. Meaning, they will win the remainder of their seven games. Impossible? No. Unlikely? Yes. I can't see the Steelers winning seven straight with Oakland, Washington, and the New York Giants on the schedule. Then again, they get the Raiders and Skins at home, and have Cincinnati and the Giants on the road, as well as finishing the season in San Diego. They also take on the Jaguars at home. So in reality, it might be possible to win outright. For now however, the team must concentrate on this weekend, and getting an advantage of playing at home set in the right direction once again. They will do just that. This defensive unit for Pittsburgh is the best in the NFL right now. No questions asked. If they had a more potent offense, this team would be in Super Bowl contention. But that is not the case, although I see Kordell Stewart finding some offense against Philadelphia this Sunday. You simply cannot keep Stewart from having an exceptional game all season. Won't happen. And I think this might be the day we finally see sparks coming from Plaxico Burress. The Steelers will win this game, and could win it easily. 

Pittsburgh 34, Philadelphia 9
