Why are yall counting steelers out like we arent inconsistent ourselves? yes steelers may lose to pats and saints but they could also win.
 
Playoff Picture ... to me, after week 14 begins the time you can start trying to break down the rest of the season to see how things must break to make the playoffs. The dust has settled and I'm afraid that bullshit hook and ladder crap that got Miami the game could prove deadly. MIA has the Vikes this weekend (who are playing like shit right now), the Jags who may have completely thrown in the towel and the mighty Bills. Even if the Vikes wake the fuck up and win this game - it is out of conference. If we lose to LAC and tie with them at 9-7, they will win on conference record.

And what if they win them all? They will be 10-6. That forces us to win out to get to 10-6. It would seem that, since we currently hold the 6 seed, that we'd win that tie-break. But that's not necessarily the case. This situation is in place only because we lead in common games - but they are yet to play Buffalo. Once they play them and beat them in this scenario, they will be tied with us in common games. After that, it will come down to strength of victory and God knows where that puts us - but the fact this crackpot win came against NE is going to help MIA's strength of victory a lot.

It is just feeling like that wild card spot is tenuous, largely because 2 games this past weekend DID NOT go our way: MIA over NE and IND over HOU. It presents a situation where it would appear sweeping the final 3 may not guarantee anything.

So we must then really hope PIT continues to crumble and drops games to NE and NO. Then - even with a loss v LAC, the division is ours. Looking at the landscape, that is not only our best option, but perhaps our most likely option. So fuck this wild card shit and lets see Shitsburg GO DOWN.
Don’t forget the H on the end of Shitsburgh....lol
 
Winning out is the best option and I think we can all agree with that..

I actually think we stand a decent chance at beating SD.. erm I mean LA(I hate you Spanos). It's going to be far from easy, but it's doable.... We're gonna get blown out aren't we..... Goddamnit.

Petition to call the thread, if we win the game vs the Chargers

The Good, the bad, and the FUCK YOU SPANOS?
 
If the Steelers are playing the way they have they lose the next two. But if they go into full Pitt mode instead of SHit mode like we have seen them 100 times before, they will cream one team and keep it super close with the other. Ive seen this shit too many fucking times. They already did it once this year and also in 16 and 17.

This year: starts of 1-2-1 Wins 6 straight
Last year: 3-2 and getting killed by the Jags, roll 8 straight, starting with the then undefeated KC in KC
2 years ago: Lose 4 straight to rack of 7 straight wins and make the playoffs.

Im tired of them doing this same shit over and over when we can never LIKE ACTUALLY NEVER get 4 wins in a row. It pisses me off so much ugh. I don't think there is a chance Pitt loses 5 in a row just being honest.

We have to win out or we are out I think it is as simple of that

The thing is though, Patriots just own them and I see no reason to doubt they will again and then you combine that with going to NO and I just do not see how they make it to the playoffs as is. Odds are for them finishing 8-7-1 and missing the playoffs.
 
so apparently Ryan Jensen has been terrible since he left

Michael Pierce said that Buccaneers C Ryan Jensen was his workout partner. “I’m acquainted with everything he does.”

that could be a real fun matchup sunday lol no matter how jensen's been playing you know he's gonna be well up for this game
