2009 Week Five Steelers Commentary
The Pittsburgh Steelers as expected took care of business by defeating the Detroit Lions.
Even though the score doesn’t reflect it the game was not close.
The Steelers sacked Lions quarterback Duante Culpepper seven times.
That is just pure dominance defensively.
The one area that many Steelers fans will be happy with is the running game as running back Rashard Mendenhall as he rushed for 77 yards on 15 carries.
In the end if the Steelers are for real their next step is proving that they can run against a top notch defense.
