And by definition, a division game is NOT a coin flip when the spread is -7 or higher. If I am getting 7 or more against the Ravens I am taking the Steelers all day. They may lose but only by 3-4 points IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 This possibility just goes to show how incredibly influential schedule and luck are. For the Bills, this season has been a remarkable combination of injuries, bad luck, a brutal schedule, and legendary mistakes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 @YoloinOhio go away. Please. We don't need you here anymore. You had a great chance to go cheer for a contender (like the Steelers?!!). Everyone being so kind to welcome you back. I ain't gonna do it. You'd have been smart to find a new team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way they have been winning is not sustainable and they will not likely keep it up. Think of them as the Giants from last year. Yes, you are what your record says but watching that team they don't have the talent, especially on offense to keep going without a TON of luck.

frostbitmic Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 The Chefs are about to go on a roll and take the #1 seed. I think the Ravens will win the North and take the #2 seed The Sunshine state gets the #3 & #4 seeds ... Pittsburgh #5 ... Houston #6 ... Los Angeles #7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strive_for_five_guy Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I’m pulling for Ravens or Steelers to land the 1 seed. Don’t want to see the Chiefs or Jags get the easy path. And if somehow we squeak into the playoffs, could see us going into either of those stadiums and winning, if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billl Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 This same thing happened in 2020. Pittsburgh didn’t pass the eye test, yet they were 11-0 to start the season. They lost 4 of 5 down the stretch before losing in the first round of the playoffs. Nothing suggests that this season will be any different.

They’ve lost to Zack Wilson, the corpse of Russ Wilson (at home) and Mac Jones, and they tried their damndest to lose to Tyrod Taylor. The Bills have had an EASY schedule this year, up to this point. They’ve played three good teams. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we actually had a tough schedule we’d be 3-7. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 18, 2023 Author Share Posted November 18, 2023 8 hours ago, Richard Noggin said: You can see how all the evidence you're presenting actually suggests Pittsburgh will regress to the mean, right? That they've been incredibly fortunate so far in 2023, and that's unlikely to continue? (I guess Minnesota last season was this way for the entire REGULAR SEASON, winning close games despite being outplayed. But it's not the likely outcome.) what if this is the mean? the difference is tomlin: “Mike Tomlin finds a way in these muck-and-grind affairs. Somehow, the Steelers have won a franchise-record eight consecutive one-score games. They have won 95 one-score games since Tomlin became coach in 2007, more than any team in the NFL, according to a graphic on the CBS telecast.” https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/joe-starkey/2023/11/12/matt-canada-patrick-peterson-elandon-roberts-mike-tomlin-packers-afc-north-standings/stories/202311070166# 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 13 hours ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: I hear you. But given that collection of QBs, their defense will score for them and they will win all those games, except possibly the Baltimore game. And that is a divisional game, which will be a total coin flip. Every win has been a coin flip for them this year, and they have won them: “ All six wins for the Steelers this season have come by a single score. The Steelers are 6-3, but outscored on the season by 26 points and for the ninth straight game were outgained by their opponent.” https://www.audacy.com/937thefan/sports/pittsburgh-steelers/steelers-gain-ground-with-a-6th-one-score-win Steelers D has scored 2 TDs....
