This team simply is not very good. Coaching, player mental toughness, scouting. We are just a mediocre team with some good talent. If you think this team will go 6-2 the rest of the way, I am taking all bets. They simply lack a true understanding of what they are playing for, and what urgency it takes to get the job done. Do not be surprised if the Raiders punk them next week. They have had our number that last few meetings.
 
Steelers coming off back to back losses will be ready to play.

Bet you didn't see us winning the year of the 6th seed...

you then would have been 5rings if your prediction rang true huh?



go Steelers !
 
I think alot of the losses this season can fall on the shoulder of Coach Tomlin and his clock management and decision making.

I'm not ready to say won't but I don't see them going 6-2 the rest of the way. I hope I'm wrong!
 
Not a fan of the intelligence of some of the team, but think we still make it to playoffs. Know it's a loooooong shot...but

That 05 team did have a lot of talent though Slash. The Steelers now I see as a wild card again and thumped out

Steelers have

Heyward and Tuitt, and Dupree who is improving. Mitchell is having a better year. Gay is solid.

Antonio/Williams/Bryant/Heath/Bey/ Wheaton/ and Ben

there is enough talent on this team

I am focused on this team right now. When is the last time we even went on a true winning streak? I can not remember. Two losses would affect most teams, but I can see this team losing again next week. I know my team. I do not feel good about this team moving forward. We are at 4 losses too soon in the season. I do not see them making 10-6. 9-7, or 8-8 is my bet. The Ravens would be winless if it was not for the under achieving Steelers. We can not even take care of business at home. We have 3 straight home games, and I do not even feel good about that. This team is just too eratic.
 
The AFC is not very deep this year, and Roethlisberger is going to be an asset again sooner than later, as he gets healthy and back into a rhythm. Williams is not Leveon Bell, but the offense is not going to lose nearly as much as it did last year when Tate and Harris had to replace Bell.

This team's going to score some points, and the defense is looking legit, holding two of the highest scoring teams in the league to well under 20 points over the past few weeks.

Things are not looking great at the moment, but the pieces to make a run seem to be there.

They haven't had their QB healthy for most of the season. Let's see how they fare once he gets going again.

*****.
 
I will hold out hope we will make it until the are officially out. If we get Bell back and the rest of the team can stay healthy (a big if this year), no team will want to face us in the playoffs, not even the Cheatriots.
 
The only thing saving us is that a lot of the AFC second place teams are not very good. Looks like Jets will fall to the Raiders, keeping them both at 4 wins. Everyone else is behind us. We've shown flashes of greatness on offense and defense, and I don't want to jinx us but we appear to have a good kicker. If we can get it together and gel and finish strong we have a decent shot at a Wild Card spot.
 
I think the defense is playoff caliber.. as for the offense, I don't know.. they've only played one great offensive game with Ben.
All I ever hear is how great our offense is or will be.. I have yet to see it. The talent is there, they just need to put it together and stay healthy.
Bengals have had a great year because they haven't had any serious injuries to their star players.. luck has a lot to do with winning seasons.
 
offense is our down fall...to much, supposed, talent. If that talent played as a team, we could be unstoppable. Tire of people like Brown whinning about getting the ball, then acting like a jack *** after he gets it. It's not just him, but there isn't much accountability for actions on this team. Work, win, succeed....

Thank God for Heath. He defines Steeler's football.
 
Too many key injuries all season. Losing Bell really hurts. DeAngelo Williams is a good back but not Bell.

Leveon is great, probably the most complete back in the league but a healthy, on point Ben can win games. We just need to hope Ben becomes that very soon.

Ben needs to be that 4th quarter QB he was for the three SB runs.

That part of his game he can sharpen...
