    The AFC playoff situation is insane right now. There is a possibility that the Colts could go 11-5 this year and still miss the playoffs, depending of course if the Dolphins, Ravens and Browns all win on Sunday. I'm excited to find out who the Steelers will play in the Wildcard. At best, the Steelers will be a 2nd seed. At worst, the Steelers will be a 3rd seed. The Steelers wildcard opponent could either be the Dolphins, Ravens, Browns or Colts. Who would y'all rather see the Steelers play in the Wildcard?

    Browns
    Colts
    Dolphins
    Ravens


    In that order. With that being said if we start out flat like pretty much all season, we will lose to any of them.

    browns -great offense but it’s the browns

    ravens- know us well and we can’t stop the run. Really tough to beat 3 times in a season.

    dolphins- defense as good as ours but rookie qb or fitz who we own.

    colts- hard to beat twice but rivers does choke.

    I think if they face the Bills they are done. Other than that game on.

    I'm sure we all have our preferences but reality of it all is this... It don't matter who they get if they don't beat them then it's on to the couch. It's a tournament and may our boys win regardless of who they share the field with.

    I’d want the Fins to go from balmy Miami to play in frigid Pittsburgh. Throw in a blizzard and it’s the ultimate home field advantage.

    I don't fear many teams, but I would hate trying to beat the Ravens a 3rd time.

    I want Lamar, his turnovers & that over-rated defense. Exposing Harbs in big games is the cherry on top.

    Personally I don't have a preference. They are their own worst enemy and just can't beat themselves. Their is no easy way in the playoffs.

    They play who they play, let the chips fall where they may... a rhyme for the time...

    GO Steelers

    I'm fairly confident against the Bills. They played them really tough while the offense was absolute trash. I don't want to see the Chiefs and MAYBE the Ravens, end of list. If Ben is even close to second-half Ben from last week, they can beat anyone.

    The defense is really good, actually. They're a well-oiled machine. That said, I agree about Lamar. The dude just can't play well consistently against good defenses. I'm more worried about Dobbins and Edwards, they kill us.

    Yeah Dobbins & Edwards could give us fits, especially on the outside. I don't think Ben would have any trouble with their "vaunted secondary" just with his own decision making.

    Their defense gave up 42 against Cleveland a couple weeks ago?

    Any of them. I know we aren’t playing very good, but we should take anyone and not look for the easy way to advance. Bring ‘em on, whoever it is.

    Division games are tougher. I’ll take anyone outside our division.

    I honestly think the Steelers could and should be the best team in the AFC. If they open up the offense a bit like they did in the 2nd half of the Colts game they can hang with anyone, but what puts the Steelers over other teams IMO, even the Chiefs, is the defense. This defense is a game changer. If the offense can put up 24 points or so, which means there are some long drives that gives the D rest, I just don't think there is a team that can beat them. Where the D has gotten into trouble this season is when it's been on the field the whole game, like the Bills game. The D played lights out almost that whole 1st half, but they were on the field for 3/4th of it. I know thats optimistic, but it is what it is.

    Let's Go Steelers!

    That would be like laughing at the Browns losing to the Jets (with no receivers), and excusing our loss to the 'gals. It is what it is, but take care of your own business and stand proud.

    no doubt just stating a fact in general is to avoid them and hope you never face them

    They just need to be ready to play their best no matter who it is. If they can't beat one of those teams, the big game won't matter since they won't be in it.
