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]

They'll end up losing before we get the chance.
As it stands now, they would play Miami, Vegas or Indy (assuming we beat Baltimore). Of those who would have the best shot at beating the Steelers?
I can't remember if the NFL is reseeding the bracket this year or not. If they don't reseed, Steelers would play winner of Vegas/Indy and we would get winner of Buffalo/Miami [Reply]

Miami seems like the toughest out right now of those 3 teams. Indy could beat anybody but with Rivers at QB, they could literally lose to anybody too. [Reply]

You have to admit though...that would be beautiful. I have ZERO complaints about our Superbowl run, but it sure would be nice to beat the shit out of some old AFC teams that gave us issues over the years. (Patriots, Steelers, Broncos, Colts etc) [Reply]

Yeah that FG had no chance but a bad penalty or something happens right before it and we lose. Yes hypothetical, but hardly "never in doubt"
Noodle arm teddy bridgewater wasn’t ever going to make that Hail Mary. But it had a better chance of douche McGee kicker making a 67 yarder. Rhule made a bad call there.
In any case... we’re not going to win every game by double digits. We will quite a few of them though.
Has Pittsburgh had one single “convincing” win yet? I’m actually asking because I’m too lazy to check [Reply]

The Browns are 6-3, and the Steelers blew them out 38-7. Other than that don't see any. Very weak schedule. [Reply]
