They did this during the game last night. Lots of Steelers go to the SB predictions.

What is yours: One for the Steelers and one for the NFL, in general.

Things that shouldn't qualify:

Watt will be better than JJ
Bell will be hurt by the playoffs...

Mine: Steelers will end the season in the top 3 teams for sacks. By the Defense, not getting sacked.
NFL: *'s do not make the AFCCG (not sure this is "bold")
 
The Steelers will win a game

That is my bold prediction... my optimistic one is they will win super bowl #7 and beat the Pats to do it
 
my bold prediction is that the Steelers D gets 3 players in the ProBowl
 
I think we go 12-4. I think the roster is good enough to do it. To me it's one of the best rosters I've seen going into week 1 in a while.

Of course, that means Tomlin has to do his part. Don't have much faith in that but Tomlin has to find a way to win more games than he loses for us.

Bye week/home game in the playoffs should guarantee AFC Championship game and then who the **** knows. Might run into a 14-2 New England team or something.

but what's the Bold prediction? Cockrell shoots himself on his **** at a club?
 
My 2 bold predictions:

1. Our defense will become a Top 10 defense again...in all thre major categories. Yards allowed-Points-Turnouvers

2. Justin Hunter will have more receiving yards and TD's than JuJu.

Steelers Go to SB. Without Leveon Bell, due to injury. HIs replacement runs for tons of yardage throughout the playoffs. Bells Power is diminished.

NFL - Jaguars get a wildcard berth.

Steelers will pick up a safety from another team that is cut within the next two days.

I'll second that. Matter of fact, I think something may already in the works due to Dangerfield and Mitchell both being out.....how much money we got left ?

They can always restructure a contract if they need wiggle room.
 
I see an 11-5 type of season. The defensive back field has been upgraded with the addition of Haden, and the pass rush with the addition of Watt.

If we do not make the playoffs it will be an epic level type of fail. Our schedule is on the easier side with few quality QB's, and most of the team is in their prime now.

What happens in the playoffs will define is the season is a success or not.

I'll set the bar with one playoff win, beyond that its all gravy.

We did 11-5 last year and AFCCG with a worse D and missing some key Offensive people. This team should do better than 11-5, barring too many injuries.

Yes, we should be better, but sorry Tomlin coached teams blow an easy game or two. Its the history of his tenure losing more often to sub .500 teams that the other top teams do.

Getting a #1 or #2 Seed is important. We do not want to face New England unless it is the AFC championship game.
 
Steelers will have a top 5 D in the league this year. That is my prediction.
 
Steelers go 13-3
AYERS somehow plays second 1/2 season with 2-TDs and 1-PR TD.


NFL--------- t*mmy b*y injured misses extensive play.





Salute the nation
 
PS my most BOLD prediction: AFCCG Hines Ward standing on side lines wearing NOTHING but converse tennis shoes and 2-G strings (one on correct and the other on backwards), also a "Walkman" CD player with ear buds......... He is hollaring out the cheateriots plays to our defense and the Heinz Field crowd is ******* going CRAZy !!!!!!!!!!


(we win 37-19)

Salute the nation
