Bettis loves the bunt

RB Jerome Bettis broke off a 39-yard run Sunday, his longest in three years, and he appeared to need oxygen afterward. "Well, I never had much gas," He said, after bullying his way to 101 yards, 100 in the second half. "My job is to get all the yards I can get and live to fight another day. ... There's a big difference between me and Willie Parker. He's the home-run guy. I'm the bunt guy -- get on base, manufacture a score."

From Joe Bendel's Tribune notebook.

In other news, the Steelers signed Ty Wigginton to the practice squad. They apparently like the plays Bones drew up for him.
