If you have, you realize today is virtually a must win.

@Cinci. They are simply are better team than we are, if we are being honest.

Bye - finally a can't lose week.

Browns. With Baker, they are better than we are, have a better D to start with.

@Ravens. They already knocked out our teeth in our house, we couldn't score 1 point in the 2nd half. We were embarrassed.

Panthers. smh

@Jags. Dear God.

@Denver. sigh

SD.

@Oak.

Pats. Hopeless.

@Saints.

Cinci.

This could get real ugly. If we don't win today, our season could be over.
 
Steelers wont win 7 games IMO..I have already looked at it.
 
I haven't thrown in the towel yet. Give these next two games of the same and I'll be less than optimistic of a double digit win column.
 
I will be at the browns game at the end of this month. That guarantees loss based on history.

Sorry
 
This isn't necessarily a must win but our next 3 are as they are in the division and we are already 0-1-1 in the division. One more loss and we probably don't win the division and have to hope for a wild card.
 
This team has no hope...they might go on a decent streak but they suck and they're no playoff team. we're better off finishing 6-9-1 and get a decent draft pick.

How is your team doing?
 
It is an absolutely brutal schedule.

It's why it was pivotal to get off to a strong start.

Winning only two games through the first five is going to be hard to overcome.

I agree. Cincinnati won today, Baltimore is in overtime with Cleveland.

To win the division, we need to go 3-0 vs thee teams, 2-1 at worst.
 
The Clowns won and we won but we still must win the next 3 division games. Lose to the Bungles and we are pretty much out of the division race already unless the wheels fall off for the Bungles and we win out.
 
I meant to predict 10-6 this year instead of 13-3 but I forgot.
 
@Cinci. - They still have Dalton at QB. Pressure him and he folds. Their defense has been weak.

Bye

Browns. - gone to OT in 3 of 5 games. Offense is still not clicking. Run game is mediocre. Trading Gordon was stupid.

@Ravens. - couldn't crack the endzone vs the browns. If defense doesn't make a ton of mistakes, Flacco is Flacco. Run game sputtering

Panthers. - when did the panthers become some great team? Not much of a passing game aside from checkdowns to McCaffrey

@Jags. - didn't the steelers light up this great defense in the playoffs? Jags offense still not that great. Bortles is streaky.

@Denver. - Case Keenum showing he's a backup. Defense is OK but not elite.

SD. - If Bosa isn't there, the defense is nothing special.

@Oak. - no pass rush at all.

Pats. - Defense spotty. Brady's arm strength is fading. Gronk starting to look old.

@Saints. - ****** defense, just like Tampa and Atlanta

Cinci. - If the playoffs are on the line? I like the steelers chances


If the steelers actually play all 4 quarters like they did against Atlanta, i Like their chances against any team. If they don't show up until they are already in a hole like against the Chiefs and Ravens, then they will struggle.

It's probably better if they play a tough schedule. They constantly overlook teams when they are heavy favorites.
 
we usually play cinci well, but it could go either way. I think we will take care of the browns. Who knows with the ravens? We will want revenge, but were totally dominated by a team that scored 9 against the browns. Denver is a scary place for us. SD, NO, and the Pats will be tough. Jags, Car, and oak are definitely winnable just a matter of which team shows up.
 
The Steelers had the toughest schedule in the NFL the year they won their last SB...so who knows, this may be the year!
 
The steelers have lost due to their own mistakes. Poor execution on offense. Blown assignments on defense, and tons of penalties.

The Steelers issues are all fixable. We saw that this week vs Atlanta. Aside from a missed tackle on the Sanu TD, the defense played really well. Didn't give up anything cheap. That's all this defense has to do to win games.
 
If the Rats-Browns game yesterday is an indication of their trending, CMT and his band of coaching miscreants should definitely spend a few more minutes reviewing tape.
The division rivalry is the Bengals. Matt Ryan is a better QB than Dalton IMHO, but Ryan's pass protection has been hobbled with injury lately.
Put Dalton on the ground (without a FaKing penalty) and hurry him up he becomes quite average.
The rest of the schedule except the Cheats? Meh, but Phil Rivers had a good day yesterday.
 
This schedule isn't and has never been hard. With parity in the NFL most teams don't have a HOF QB and a stable organization. The Steelers have both. Which is why the Steelers will win 10-12 games as long as Ben is here. Seriously how anybody can think the Steelers are going to lose more than 6 games with Ben healthy is beyond me. Who's going to beat them? Atlanta with their swiss cheese OL and no defense? As bad as the Steelers played against the Clowns all they could do is tie. The only teams left on the schedule who even have a chance of beating the Steelers are the pats*, Jags, and maybe the Saints. We always split with the rats and the clowns won't get 5 TOs again. The bungles are a joke. I don't care if they did beat Miami.. the same team that got plastered by the pats*.

Good stuff, Tape - you know you and I only disagree on SEC football.

What the Dripping Vajays, around here, don't take into consideration is that we TIED the Browns because our kicker is having mental lapses - should have been a W for us but oh well. Oh, let's not forget our rag-tag defense who allowed KC to go up 21 points BUT, hmmm, I wonder how we tied the game up and only lost by 5 points - I like our chances against KC 95% of the time. We lost to the Rats because the DC failed to call anything remotely similar to a blitz package and stayed in man-to-man coverage all night---even Bert is going to figure that out.

Personally, I'm glad the rest of the schedule is ranked as the second toughest schedule left in the league. If Ben and AB figure their stuff out - it's a wrap. AND - I know I'll get crucified for this but, suck it up and drive on, THE RETURN OF BELL in the lineup (I'd keep Connor as the starter until proven wrong) adds the dimension on offense that the WHOLE FACKING league is scared of...

Just let that marinate a bit.
