 All of this and we still managed to come out on top, even if only by 1 point.  Ben looked pretty good this game throwing for over 300 yards and not ints, though he did manage to get sacked a few times by a team that hadn't registered a sack in the past two games.  Seems like all an ailing defense needs to do to get their sack numbers up is swing on by the burgh and take in a game.  That being said he performed well and didn't seem to show any signs of rust.  Mabye Big Ben is on the mend.

 Regardless of what I have read a lot of others saying.  Lesnar earned that victory he took down the champ and now holds the belt.  I do agree that I think his title shot was a little pre-mature only have 3 MMA fights and being 1-1 in the UFC seems a bit soon, but the guy is HUGE FAST and electrifying.  I think he iwll be a good champ and tough to dethrone.  He is strong as hell but moves like lightning and if he gets tired he can probably just lay on a guy for five rounds.  I'd like to see a Gonzaga Lesnar fight next maybe.
