[NU Sports] If Pittsburgh wins does the "curse" get broken?

[mlinhardt at netzero.net]

Bentley played, but Essex was inactive.  

If the situation continues and Pittsburgh wins does it break the streak?  

To me the person has to be on the active roster to be considered.  I don't believe they even would travel with the team to Detroit if they were inactive.

NFL Inactives for AFC Title Game -- Trai was inactive

Defense pulls the plug on Panthers -- Lots of good Bentley quotes especially regarding Smith

I thought we played well in the 1st half vs. the Ill-whine-I.  You say I am nuts?  Well we played 34 seconds of great defense each possession only to have them hit an off-balance NBA-range 3-pointer.  We on the other hand could not hit any easy shots.  We trapped mercilessly and stole the ball quite a bit.  We did not get dominated on the glass like we did against PSU.  Some more balanced shooting percentages and I think we could have won.
