Steelers still leading the division

Ravens collapse. Browns lose.

Now, if we can change the HC, OC and OL by Thursday, we be golden.

 

Yes we got loads of help today. Miami was down 28-7 at half and come all the way back to beat the Ravens. Cleveland also relinquished a nice lead to lose to the Jets.

Bengals don’t look all that sharp so far this afternoon either. They’re 7 point favorites @ Dallas. One could argue that last weeks game between Bengals/Steelers was so physical it took a lot out of both teams tanks

 

Borrows is still getting killed... makes me wonder if Steeler DL was dominant or Cinci OL sucks real bad - they sucked in SB as well last year.

 

Steelers can be all alone in 1st place Thursday night

 

Maybe the steelers will be lucky and win the AFC north at 9-8,so it mean playoffs for the steelers(and one and done after that) and no losing season for Mike Tomlin, and no major change after that.

 

Damn that sounds so right and what's sadder I'd be thrilled this team wins 9 and makes Playoffs.

 

Didn't Saints win their Division several years ago at 7-9 and then go on the road and beat the highly favorite Seahawks? Any given Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Saturday and in the case of 2020, Tuesday....

 

It was in 2010 and it was the seahawks who was 7-9 and they were at home.The week after in Chicago,it was not good too for the seahawks.

 

Thank you, fuzzy memories.

 

This was a bad loss, we have a much better Roster than the Pats do.

 

You know I was just thinking, if it weren't for a shanked field goal attempt by the Bengals last week we would be 0-2.

 

Yeah but only 1 game back.

 

better roster yes, better play calling no

 

The Bengals are in last place, the team many picked to repeat as division champs .

 

Honestly...I figured we would be 1-1 after week 2...just not the way it happened

 

Yea overall everybody else losing today made this day not as bad as it could have been. Overall, if the Steelers win in Cleveland on Thursday they will be 2-1 overall and 2-0 in the division with 2 wins on the road and the Browns would be 1-2 with a loss to the Steelers, the Bengals would still be 0-2 going into next week and the Ravens have a tough game at New England next week. So let’s hope things turn around in Cleveland Thursday. A few things here gotta find a way to get more pressure on the QB without Watt, and Trubisky has to start playing better this week or it’s gonna be time for Tomlin to strongly consider going to Pickett either during the Browns game or for the game with the Jets at home the following week.

 

Steelers suck without Watt. 0-5.

 

Jets may not be as easy as people think.

 

Steelers are not very good at home openers either; now dropping four of their last five.


Coincidentally, the previous two were without Watt. For that matter, this is now the second time in the Mike Tomlin tenure that the team has been too reliant on one player; the man in my avatar being the other. Alex Highsmith is good but he is not that good to single handedly win games. Cole Strange gave Cameron Heyward some serious fits; the likes of which I have not seen in some time.


Minkah is still Minkah at least. That said, outside of Minkah and Myles Jack, not too much to speak of on the defensive front. DeMarvin Leal though has been solid if nothing else imo.

 

Agree. The Pats are not one of the better teams in the AFC. To lose to them at home is making my 5-12 prediction look a lot better than it did after last weeks Win..

 

we will have a winning season and make playoffs

 

Woulda, shoulda, coulda.
