    The Rats and Bungles won so the pressure to keep up the W's remain. Keep the wins coming and we should be able to make the playoffs. Rats game will more than likely be huge. Also Bengals will be a tough game and will probably pull the same dirty tricks against Bell that the midgets did at the end so we have to protect him no matter the consequences.

    This team plays better with that wall pressing against their backs.

    Yep. The Rats and Bungles beat two teams easily today that we lost to earlier in the season putting us in the predicament we are in today, on the outside looking in!:rant:

    I'm not worried about the Bengals they're done especially with that tie. The Steelers just need to win out and they will win the AFCN.

    Every team is a worry... Especially a buffalo team who's not too far from the Jekyll and Hyde status we roost on

    any word on why williams didn't play? i thought tomlin said he was planning on playing. it would be nice to get bell out of there during garbage time at least before he gets his neck ripped off

    Why was #26 still in the game at that point. Is Toussant more apt to fumble?

    The weather shouldn't be a problem. The early forecast for next weekend in Buffalo is in the 40 degree range with maybe a few snow showers.

    Well, we beat the Giants who beat BOTH the Ravens and Bengals.... and we beat the Redskins who beat the Ravens and tied the Bengals... and we beat the Jets who beat the Ravens. It's not like anyone in the AFC North has taken care of business consistently. We're on the outside looking in right now because of the head to head loss in Baltimore.

    It's always been the "Steelers" Achilles heel playing teams that use the wide nine, other teams like the Ravens and Bengals have no problem with it. it also helps that they were both home games I believe.

    The Steelers play the Bills, Bengals, Ravens and Browns. (the last 2 games at home)

    The Ravens play the Patriots, Steelers, Eagles and Bengals. (3 of those games on the road)

    We have a very good chance of taking the division.

    If it comes down to it, The Bengals will fold like a lawn chair.

    Every game is a must win from here on out.

    Great win. The best over all win of the season IMO. Maybe Tomlin's best win in 5 years.

    I worry about the Bengals.

    That team has single handedly been responsible for knocking out the 3 best Offensive players over the last 2 years.

    Give them absolutely nothing left to play for and the fool leading their defense in the second to last game of the season trying to spite the Steelers and.....

    This was a good win... no doubt about it, but not nearly as good as the win over the Patriots in 2011. That was epic considering how the Patriots had slapped the Steelers around for over a decade prior.

    Aye - if the defense keeps playing like this, and the offense steps up a notch with a few more TDs, then we're looking good. Ben using all his weapons, solid commitment to the run, pressure from the defense and some turnovers. What's not to like?
