    NFL: MIAMI (0-10) at PITTSBURGH (7-3)

    <h3>After bad loss, Steelers hope to continue Monday night dominance</h3>

    PITTSBURGH (Ticker) - After an inexplicable loss, the PittsburghSteelers hope to create some more Monday night mayhem.

    The Steelers seek an NFL-record 13th straight Monday night homevictory when they host the winless Miami Dolphins.

    Pittsburgh (7-3) is currently tied with the Oakland Raiders, whowon 12 straight Monday night home affairs from 1970-1985. TheSteelers' last home loss on the day came in 1992.


    This will be Pittsburgh's second Monday night appearance of theseason at Heinz Field. On November 5, the Steelers routed theBaltimore Ravens, 38-7.


    In that game, Ben Roethlisberger tossed a career-high fivetouchdowns, tying the Steelers' record held by Mark Malone andTerry Bradshaw.


    All three of Pittsburgh's losses this season have come on theroad, including last week's 19-16 overtime defeat to the NewYork Jets, who had dropped their last six games.


    New York's Thomas Jones rushed for 117 yards on 30 carries,becoming the first running back in 35 games to surpass 100 yardsagainst Pittsburgh.


    But while the Steelers have struggled on the road, they havebeen nearly unbeatable at home, outscoring their five opponentsby a combined margin of 143-53.


    Pittsburgh's closest call at Heinz Field came two weeks ago,when it held on for a 31-28 victory over the Cleveland Browns.

    Last week's loss sliced Pittsburgh's lead over the Browns to onegame in the AFC North.


    The Dolphins (0-10) remain the league's only winless team, andit is hard to imagine them getting their first win against aSteelers' team that figures to be in an angry mood.

    Miami has come close in recent weeks, suffering 13-10 losses tothe New York Giants and Buffalo Bills before falling to thePhiladelphia Eagles last week, 17-7.


    Miami is the first team to start a season 0-10 since the DetroitLions opened the 2001 campaign with 12 straight losses.

    Dolphins rookie quarterback John Beck struggled in his firststart last week, completing just 9-of-22 passes for 109 yards.

    Miami's offense could have more trouble against the Steelers,who lead the NFL in total offense, yielding only 236.2 yards pergame.
