    Yeah, the Detroit game got me.

    Before the Detroit game I was believing that Mason and Canada were the future for this team.

    I've never been aligned with that philosophy. You have a chance to make the playoffs, you give it all you got. It's good for the organization, it's fans and the city. You get to the dance, and anything can happen.

    I didn’t see any of this happening. The thing that makes me the happiest is watching this team play with some heart ❤️

    As much as most will hate to admit it, but Tomlin completely outcoached Harbaugh today, or at least his staff did, because that was some terrible playcalling by the Ravens. Absolutely brutal.

    If I were on the other side, I'd be livid.

    Thought we would win against the crows but not the jags, not only beating Indy but crushing them

    Just to spread the love, let me add...


    Everyone's on here saying they didn't see the Jacksonville win coming. But, they forget about participation in a thread that said we wouldn't win 3 more times back when the team only had 1 win. So, yeah, there's a lot of crow to be had.

    Yeah you can. Just for the sake of your argument I found it humorous. But hell to your point when they did draft high for Devin Bush, they botched it.

    I definitely thought we would lose today as the game went on. I am glad I was wrong.

    I didn't post any of my opinions, but I admit to being pessimistic about the Steelers chances for even having a winning season, let alone being in the playoffs. I am glad things turned out as they did, particularly sweeping the Browns and Rats. I am glad the Rats got away from what was working for them, that being run the ball right over that bum Bush's position. Is he even trying?

    Not counting sacks, the Steelers were last or nearly last in every offensive and defensive category. The fact that this team made the playoffs is remarkable. It has to do with veteran players like Ben, Cam, Haden, Minkah, TJ etc. playing in a lot of close games in their careers and knowing how to win them.

    Barring a very unlikely tie later on we are in. Definitely wasn’t expecting it and if we are honest this is not a playoff caliber team, certainly not on offence anyway.

    Still delighted we get another game, screw the draft position

    When you have to depend on another team for your playoff hopes then that means you were not good enough take care of your own business and just got lucky.

    This is so wrong. Heck, loose as many as you can every year for 20 years, and get lots of high picks.

    I'll take luck. It's a new season now. We have a puncher's chance at best. But we're in it.

    If, by some miracle, we went to or won the Superbowl, NOBODY will care how we got here.

    We still have a chance to win with Lamar in the game today. I also think TJ would break the sacks record of LJ played.

    I don't know what it is but when LJ is in the game, he presses a bit too often to make plays. He'll burn you for a bunch of yards and then turn the ball over enough to give the other team a chance.

    Huntley isn't as talented but he's more decisive.

    I said somewhere in the game thread that the game was over when they started running the ball down our throats. I was wrong.

    Would you say this might be one of Tomlin’s best coaching jobs to date? :hmm:

    Didn’t think there was a snowballs chance in hell they would make the playoffs this season. The pie in the sky fans can have their crow moment. Tastes good.

    Still think there is a strong possibility that they are embarrassed again like last year but the fact that they got there, especially with with how much Ben has fallen off, gives me some hope they could advance past the first rd.

    As Ray said, anything is possible now that they are in.
