Looking at the game last night any Steeler fan would seem to be happy with the score. However, it wasn’t all good news for the Steelers last night as Willie Parker, the NFL’s leading rusher, broke his leg in the first quarter and will miss the rest of the season - including the playoffs. In Parkers place came Najeh Davenport who put up 123-yards and 2 touchdowns. With the playoffs coming up soon the Steelers will have to hope that Davenport will continue being a serviceable replacement for Parker. We should know what the Steelers running game will look like for the playoffs after a couple more games as Davenport becomes the featured back.

The only highlight for the Rams in the 41-24 shellacking was the retiring of former all-pro running back Marshall Faulk’s #28 at halftime.
