Expectations?

On-field talent, I agree.

Outside the sidelines talent , not so much.

 

The Bengals will be one of the worst teams in the league, I see them as a 6 win team. They have a new first time HC, and their best player AJ Green can't stay healthy.

 

... and it wouldn't surprise me if the Steelers split (1-1) with them this season.

 

Absolutely nothing will surprise me this year with the Steelers

I wouldn't be surprised if we were ranked in the top 2 or 3 near the end of the season and I wouldn't be surprised if Colin Kaepernick leads a gay rights/civil rights on-field parade at half time of one of the Monday night home games!

 

I expect the Rooney’s to right the ship.
I expect this team to get back on track and at the minimum make the playoffs this year.
Very much looking forward to this season.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Steelers split the division 3-3 this season.

 

Ben and the Steelers own the Bengals

 

Nah maybe 4-2, split with the Ravens and Browns

 

How about 3-2&1...

 

I want these so bad I can taste it.
I half way expect these.
But I won't be a bit surprised if the circus continues simply because of the way Art has conducted himself.

Here is the real difference for me, If the circus continues, and Art continues to feign anger when the media references the circus, I will know that the once proud organization is done; what will you do? Expect the Rooney's to right this ship next year too?

 

The bengals play the same teams we play, afc east nfc west plus 6 division games, every year the bungles have to play the same teams everybody else plays in our division minus 2 different ones so schedules are basicly the same only in different weeks...

 

Yeah, but Bengals play the Patriots @ home in Cincy.

Steelers play Patriots @ Foxborough... which is a guaranteed loss.

 

But they are at seattle and at the rams and we have both games at home plus they play the jaguars and we dont..................

 

nah we beat patriots but then they go on a 15 game run to win another championship lol while we go 7-9 still celebrating that win

 

Patriots are our Super Bowl now... like Browns' Super Bowl is the Steelers.

 

West Coast games don't matter much. Steelers will be unprepared and usually lose everywhere in the mountain and pacific time zones, except for San Diego... no matter how sh!tty the team is. Chargers are in Los Angeles now, so Chargers will whoop the Steelers, too.

 

So what you are saying is this season is over before it even starts, even though i'm not very confident in this years steeler team and coaching staff they might be improved enough to surprise us but I i'm not expecting any amazing things from them based on their previous struggles, if they win in NE to open the season that would be a shocker.....

 

Yes... 7-9 is realistic. Steelers could lose the first 3 games... and start 0-3.

Patriots at Foxborough... no brainer
Seahawks... Wilson will not be as rusty as "September" Ben. Plus Carroll will have his team prepared.
49ers... west coast game

 

What will I do? I’ll continue to cheer for my favorite team.
If the product becomes something I don’t like I’ll do something different.

If you’re so disgusted with Art Rooney why are even worried about this team?

It is what it is. Some fans keep their expectations realistic and enjoy their team.
Some think the world revolves around them and they are owed perfection by the team every year.

Also do you really think it’s necessary to call people Mental Midgets or unintelligent just because they don’t agree with your point of view?

 

Like all the games in Carson, this will be a home game for the visiting team. Advantage: Steelers!

 

No ties this year

 

My prediction is 11-5.

 

I don't know for the best case scenario,but the worst case scenario for the steelers is 8-8.Tomlin always finds a way to not finish the season with a losing record even if the players and coach look awful all season long.

 

• I think we are fooling ourselves. AB was a big deal on offense. He created single coverage for JuJu. Also Ben found him on broken plays time and time again Offense will struggle and I think this is the season joke Haden jumps the shark.
