    I'm not the most knowledgeable eye while watching a game. But the Bills just didn't impress me as they beat Miami. Remember just 4 weeks or so ago, a lot of us was ready to get rid of everyone starting with Tomlin. The team looked sad,(not all) some even looked like they were quitting on the field. We had no Quarter Back. Than boom, what happened? Look were going upere, our guys are believing ,the fans will be there and there ain't no QB debate. We got a shot !

    It is great to be underdogs, If we can contain Bills QB to inside the pocket
    we have a chance . Play disciplined gaps and hope we get turnovers,and don't have
    turovers. Lets ride.

    Time to shock the world!

    Yes the Bills have a 5 game winning streak but they have only 1 blowout in those games....Their game vs pats and chargers were very close....

    The Steelers have been playing as good as any team in the AFC for the last 3 weeks, but it's obvious that they are big underdogs because of TJ being out. That's understandable though, look at their record without him

    I mean, this is expected. Logically, and especially without TJ, why would anyone pick the Steelers? That said, football is often very random.

    Some of our recent loses in the first round I was sure we were winning. This one I'm sure we are not. May I be wrong again!

    I hope you didn't think that the steelers had a chance to win 2 years ago vs KC.....I was not confident vs Cleveland in 2020 too because the steelers were awful in their last month of the season,so they had a very poor momentun come playoffs time who is never ideal

    I think they have more chance this week and I think the backup of Watt will be much better that the others in the 11 others game that Watt was out

    For me… TJ being out is bigger than the first 14 games of the season.

    Who is basing their predictions on how red hot the Dolphins were 10 weeks ago? Nobody cares. How are they playing now?

    If you only had the last three games to go on, you would certainly give the Steelers a chance… Until you heard that TJ was out.

    They would've beaten the Browns easily without the franchise QB throwing 4 interceptions :facepalm:.

    They would have a much better chance but I don't think they would beat the Browns easily....The Browns were playing much better than the Steelers in the last month and it wasn't close.The steelers had also zero running game back in 2020,likely their worst in franchise history

    Ben threw three interceptions in the first half, and add in Pouncey's bad snap on the first play, that was too much to overcome.

    Of course,100% agree with that but if those thing doesn't happen, I still don't think the Steelers would have won easily like you said since they played as bad like the Eagles right now in the last month

    The steelers could not run and stop the run in the last month

    I think the team who runs the football with the most success and takes care of the football the best.

    Wins the contest.

    Expectations very low from everyone. You have to hope the Bills buy into that and take us lightly.

    Nick Herbig at OLB. He's played well for a rookie.

    I dunno I must be looking through rose-coloured glasses because I see a team that has +11 turnover differential and a Bills QB that has 18 interceptions in the league( second most in the league) . I like our chances
