Don't look now but your Pittsburgh Steelers are all alone in first place

6-2 heading into the bye week hopefully some guys get healthy and come back.

 

Not to mention we are heading into a week off and some more pieces coming back.

I know it is a tough second half, but overall I am happy with how things have gone so far (6-2).

 

Division games are always tough but the Browns aren't good and the Bengals are pretty much the Burrow show. We just need to split with the Ravens.

 

No reason we can’t go at least 5-1 in the division games

 

can’t ever break down em division games accurately. Browns beat ravens… bengals arent bad as it’d appear. Appreciate the standings fer now, Brutal back 9 comin up. Get healthy n see what’s what. Here we go!!!

 

I would love for that to happen, but I see them splitting with the Ravens and Bengals.

 

Going 5-4 in the last 9 games might win the division, they have to at least split with the Ravens.

 

Don't want to put a damper on things, but DC Austin needs to change things up. If it weren't for Watt, this D is a bottom 10 unit. Outside of a couple of games our rush D has been pretty good, but tonight got torched by a rookie. Heyward looked every bit his 35 years and Benton had one of his worst games as a Steeler. I mean the run gaps were huge, virtually no contain and got sealed off consistently. Don't get me started with their coverage schemes either

 

Kings of the North thus far. Where they belong.

 

Repeat of last year's division record would be great. It would put them at 11-6 if they would happen to lose to the 3 remaining non division teams. Anything above 4-2 in the division might be enough to win the North with them winning one of those out of division games. I haven't looked at the Ravens scenario with at least a 4-2 Steelers record within the division. One of the stat hounds can answer this.

 

And to think most of those talking heads had the Steelers finishing in last place .

 

One game lead with 9 to play. Get em Bucs, I mean Steelers

 

6-2 best we could have hoped for. Get healthy (maybe add a WR) and get ready for a brutal last 9 games.

4-5 or 5-4 is probably realistic down the stretch. 5-4 certainly gets us in and maybe wins the North pending on how we do vs Baltimore.

 

3 more wins and the streak of non losing season of Tomlin will continue!

 

Normally I would go that way but my nephew and niece got us tickets to the game in Cincinnati and a party bus ride down so we will be there representing the Steelers

I figure that should help with a win

Unless I get beat up for wearing my Steeler gear

 

Bengals defense blows. Just have to play ball control and keep Burrow on the sidelines. I can see the Steelers winning both games against the kitty cats. Cleveland and Baltimore will be more of a challenge in my opinion.

 

There will be tens of thousands of Steelers fans there to back you up. If the Bengals keep losing it will be another home (away) game for the Steelers.

 

Can we start a Playoff/SuperBowl win streak please?

 

The Bengals defense stinks but on some days their offense can put up some points, that's why I would be surprised if the Steelers swept them.

 

This team could finally break through. It will be imperative to not start with KC However. Not sure any other AFC team I feel we would have no chance against. Bills and Ravens I think would be the other two most difficult. Texans are solid but I don’t think unbeatable by any stretch.

 

We are BOWL ELIGIBLE!!!!

 

It would be great if the steelers win the division and being in the top 3 seed to avoid team like KC,BUF,BAL or Houston in the wild card round.Play a team like the chargers,broncos or colts at home would gave the steelers a better chance to be in the divisionnal round!

 

I guess the only problem there is we would be favored to win a playoff game. A loss in that scenario would be brutal for MT
