| st the Titans, posting a total of 45 yards on 15 attempts. Look for the Steelers to return to a run-based offense this week, giving the Bengals a large dose of Bettis. Pittsburgh has no shortage of receiving weapons in WRs Hines Ward and Burress either. Ward exploded against the Titans, snagging 10 balls for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Stewart has a tendency to look Ward's way and that should give him another big day this week. COMING UP: The Steelers hit the road to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars next Sunday. |

Hutchinson, who has started the past two games for the Cowboys, has shown that he isn't ready to win a game by himself, and going against Indianapolis' Cover-2 scheme could be very confusing for the young passer. COMING UP: The Cowboys will return home to host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12. |

When the Giants run the ball they will turn to Tiki Barber, who has 601 yards from scrimmage (365 rushing and 236 receiving).
