I mean goddamn this conference seems wrapped up doesn’t it? Not trying to jinx us but it really seems like injuries are our biggest opponent at this point.
The Ravens are fucking frauds. They’re a warm up for us. We literally made these guys look like the JV squad the last 2 meetings.
And sure the Bills and Titans may make us work for the win, but in all honesty we have to play pretty goddamn shitty to lose to those guys.
In order to have any shot at beating us you need 3 things:
1. Elite pass rush
2. Top 10 QB capable of making critical plays
3. Overall talented roster
Steelers are the only team in the AFC that has those 3 things, and even them it’s not like they’re some serious threat like the Patriots a couple years back, but they seem like the best of the rest.
I think at this point it would be disappointing for this team to not get to the SB 3 straight times.
We’re just that good, and we keep drafting well and get better and better. [Reply]

It's not an argument about who has the softer schedule, it's determining if the Steelers are for real... and at this point I'd say that's inconclusive at best, and they're probably no better/worse than any other AFC playoff contenders who aren't defending a SB title.
This is where I'm at.....it's not about how "soft" the schedule is, it's what you're doing with it. Very inconclusive to say the least... [Reply]

Chiefs by at least 10 if and when we see them.
lets face the Chiefs lucked out and drafted Mahomes, if not for that it would of been another 50 yrs before you'd win a Super Bowl. Without him the Chiefs are way below average. Just barely above a bad defense, Medicore backs and a coach who rode Mahomes coattails to a championship. Thank your lucky stars that you were blessed with the greatness of Mahomes or you would be just another mediocre franchise. [Reply]

Well... isn’t that story of every great franchise, dumbass?
Like they all have to hire good people, draft great players, specifically quarterbacks.
The Chiefs finally tried for the first time since ‘83 and hit the fucking jackpot. Meanwhile the Squealers have a rapist at QB who can’t go anywhere in the playoffs if his defense isn’t elite. [Reply]

As far as the Titans go, Vrabel needs to answer for his defense. His ego may be the demise of this championship caliber team. Andy Reid was on a similar path last year and he turned the defense around. Just like this years Titans will
Leave it to a guy named jeff fisher for a moronic QB take.
Mahomes is on pace for 4600 yards, 42 tds, and 2 interceptions and a 14-2 record. That would be one of the best seasons of all time.
Which is better in EVERY AREA than last year. [Reply]

They are definitely our biggest competition. Unfortunately we may have to go 14-2 bc their schedule looks way easy. They look like a 13-3/14-2 team if the ball bounces the right way
CLE
@TEN
@BAL
@DAL
CIN
@JAC
BAL
WAS
@BUF
@CIN
IND
@CLE
Looking like the only real threat is BAL one more time. Not sure who would have the tie breaker if both are 15-1 and their lone losses came from the #2 teams in their divisions. Pretty wild if it plays out that way. I would think strength of schedule but IDK. [Reply]

Jeff.Fisher is glad you joined the conversation..... [Reply]
I just re-watched Steelers / Ravens, and yeah, not impressed (nor have I been watching any of their games, sans 1st half against the Tits, in which they were equally unimpressive in the 2nd half)
Lamar Jackson was simply awful in this game, but the thing that stood out to me was that it seemed like the Steelers played a lot of single-high safety, with the other 10 bodies within 6-7 yds from the line of scrimmage.....Chiefs would feast in that situation..... [Reply]
