I got a lot of rolling eyes and laughing emoji responses .. Who takes the Steelers seriously? They had a 4 game lead in the division and everyone was saying Baltimore was going to win the division anyway. Nobody thinks Pittsburgh is any good. Texans would crush them. There is no part of the Steelers game that is elite.

There's definitely something to the pressure of "never having won" in sports that gets to players and probably coaches too. Get one early and then it's all gravy. You did it, and no matter what happens you'll always be a SB champion. That goes a long way toward loosening your team up in future title games. When you go somewhere that wants a title so badly and you hear it all the time and you as a player start to really feel that it can be good but also can be a detriment.

the Steelers are a 5-12 team that is coached up to a 9-8 ish team every season. They are awful. I cannot remember the last time they outplayed a good team and won. IF they beat a truly good team it's always fluky and usually involves special teams plays like blocked kicks and also several turnovers by the other team. They're frauds and win with smoke and mirrors. They can't line up and beat you. Nothing about them is scary. Couple that with the "Bills are done" talk percolating nationwide on sports media and here we go again. Narrative buster time where all the WR suddenly do great. Coleman goes for 75+ yards and a TD or two. It'll be like the Tampa Game but with a Steelers score: Bills 47 Steelers 13 If I were a gambler there is no amount of money I wouldn't bet on the Bills winning this game.

Most of Beane's talking points that he went on national media tours to brag about have turned out to be flops.

It's a done deal I think. Raiders are horrible and unwatchable

The Rams do everybody eats except those guys are actually good. In fact, almost any good offense you can think of is everybody eats. The problem is without talent nobody eats.

The team posted Mangia! On social media on trade deadline day. Beane seemed mad after not making a trade but maybe it was because he took offense to the idea that a WR was needed and was irritated about that. I'm not sure what's going on but it seems there is a schism forming between Beane and McDermott. Was this build truly a shared vision and now Beane is getting thrown under the bus for what was a shared philosophy?

IMO McDermotts camp is subtly hinting that he has actually wanted WRs all along. If you notice this is becoming a veiled talking point in local media and even Sal has hinted at McDermott wanting more at the WR spot. When that happens there is something going on.

Lots of John Gruden talk tonight... I wonder if he's not as radioactive now?

Rams should stop throwing so much.... Stafford is taking shots late

Some say "it's not like they didn't try!" As if that matters. Trying isn't the job. Results are the job. Everybody tries. I don't blame Pegula for not firing Beane yet because the season hasn't played out. What if we go to the Super Bowl?

If Atlanta subbed Marty in up 28-3 they easily win that Super Bowl. Every huge comeback involves turnovers and bad management by the other team. Atlanta did all of that and still almost won if not for a phantom holding call taking them out of FG range up 8 with about 2 minutes to go.

This week we'll basically end Pittsburgh's season. Steelers cannot beat a good team unless they get a blocked punt, kickoff return or 2-3 turnovers If all that happens it'll be a close game in the 4th quarter. Otherwise, we steamroll them because it's what we always do after a bad loss. From there we just need a couple wins to make it. It's almost a sure thing.

Dude is an all time great but nobody knows it.

Dallas is such a weird team No lead against them is safe. Or they could score 3 points.

Myles Garrett in a super bowl would be cool to see. Not on the Browns though.

Dirty hit to the legs by Cleveland imo

Jacksonville is another one .. Garbage team that somehow has a good record because they catch every break and play bad teams mostly

I feel like there's a sack every other down in Browns games. That DL is insane.

Go Cardinals!

Wow, Sanders with a beautiful throw, then Jeudy fumbles it away

Every time I see a team wear their throwbacks I think they should switch full time

This league is wide open right now Very few teams are truly out of it

Gotta exercise those demons!

Brady is an above average to good announcer Couldn't stand him as a player but he's pretty good at this too it seems
