Steelers legend Mean Joe Greene says Oakland slipped this year and Raiders star Kenny Stabler leads a favorites bid to advance to the AFC championship. Steelers rebut the view as Stabler targets a fierce Steelers secondary led by Wagner Edwards Bowser in a clash that recalls last season’s playoff drama. Rick Cleland plans a South Seas two week swimming clinic with Southern Oregon College over Christmas and New Year, missing home for the trip.
