    Take care of business against a winless Browns team like you should and you should get help in Dallas today with the Ravens losing to the Cowboys. This will set up a chance for the Steelers to get back into 1st place next week with a win Thursday against the Colts. The Ravens play the Bengals next weekend so either way you get help there, but it probably would be best to have Cincy win that game.

    IDEALLY

    But

    the ravens have an identity that allows them to go and beat the lliving *&^%$#@ out of teams in their house
    AND
    play well when it counts the most

    them knowing that their closest threat is a game back in the division will be enough to fire them up

    us Steeler fans will be on edge all day as we hope our team won't give up a win to a winless team

    Pretty bad, here we are in week 11 wondering if we can beat a winless brown team because we play lousy on the road, and we have 4 road games left in our last 7 games, the clock is ticking on any playoff hopes....

    The Cowboys are due for a loss, and I think Baltimore gives them one today. Pittsburghs wins though

    Yup. That loss due belonged to us but Balt actually has a defense unlike us

    Dallas at home and help from the zebras will allow them to add a W to their record although the game will be close!!!!

    The rats have one thing going for them, they have the number 1 ranked run defense, and if their new OC can get flacco out of his shell I can see the rats beating dallas, If I were betting this game I would take the 7 points and bet with the rats to cover....

    I did bet it just that way but I'm pretty sure the Cowboys win at home in a close game.

    It's not so much we are now tied for first as much as we are tied for third from the bottom.

    Ravens are still in first. 1- they have the head to head victory; 2- they have a better divisional record.

    After the Steelers beat the Colts on Thursday they will be alone in first place. I hope Butler keeps the blitzing going the rest of the season, the Colts have a bad O-line so keep blitzing.

    For now they do. The Ravens still have to play at New England and here at Heinz and also have two tough games with both Miami and Philly and two games with the Bengals as well which won't be gimmie games. They are gonna lose a few more times. Need to root for Cincy next week when they play in Baltimore.

    UnFortunately I think the Bengals tank this game intentionally to hurt our chances.

    We need to take care of business Thursday, then cheer for the Bengals against the Ravens.

    Bad part is AJ Green is out. However, with as bad as the AFC North is the Bengals aren't out of it, so hopefully they give the Ravens a game.

    Yeah, the bengals are done, besides losing green for the rest of the season their starting running back giovani bernard has a torn ACL done for the season as well, and Dalton isnt playing well this season, changing OCs when hue jackson left has made dalton shaky at best this year and now without his two pacifiers he will only be worse off, so dont expect any Division help from this group......


    ESPN:
    The Bengals have also reportedly lost running back Giovani Bernard for the season to a torn ACL. Bernard was in the game until the final moments and caught four passes in the final two minutes. When he got hurt is unclear.
