Bi- Polar Steelers and what to expect?

So far this's season the Steelers have looked like a playoff team, and a lock to draft in the top 7 of the 2015 draft. I've come to the conclusion this team resembles some of the women I've dated I the past in that you never know which one will show up? So, what do you expect over the next two games, and beyond? On paper we should win both, but we play down to lesser teams, and the Titans seem to always beat us in Nashville. ( seen them play there several times and have never witnessed a victory) iF they continue to play at this level on offense a mediocre D will suffice, but will this continue? The only thing I know for sure is to handle it like the ex's- drink heavily and enjoy the good times. So, how do you think we look from here on out?

 

I think the football fairy sprinkled Super Bowl dust on the team in that magical 2:54 timeframe against the Texans and the spell won't wear off until the seventh Lombardi is being hoisted in Arizona in February.

 

I think these nxt two games wont be as prty as the last two where, but we will squeak out wins just the same.It would be nice to see Ben throw 6 more td's but in actuality i think we will run the ball more and try to get the running game going . I think Bell only has 1 rushing td ? this year.

 

Relax they will be fine through and winning their 7th SB this year.

 

This. Our guys are just now starting to gel together and good things are happening. I don't think most people know how much confidence has to do with play on the field (for any athlete). We probably won't win out, and we might struggle at times, but this team is finally starting to realize how good they are (and can be in the future) and it shows.

 

Agreed. Especially the O line. I think they are starting to believe in themselves and the system they're playing in and realize they can get the job done. That confidence alone is huge. I think sometimes when you're struggling like they have in the past things can really snowball and get out of control and any confidence they had becomes lost. I think they realize their potential more now that they've been on a bit of a streak and they see just how good this offense is capable of being.

 

I agree. I believe we should easily win the next two games. If we don't, I will be doing a lot of Rumplemintz shots.

 

Sounds kinda scary ftb lol. are these alcohol shots? lol

 

I would love to sit back on a Sunday afternoon and not being chewing my finger nails down to the bone for once... Get a lead early and bury the next two teams. I would love to see them be able to get key players out of the game like Ben etc. because we are so far ahead.

 

Oh yeah!

 

Actually until the two quick D turnovers, both the O and D weren't pretty in the Ravens game Sunday and we all were probably thinking "Oh no - here we go again - falling flat in the biggest game of the year on national TV!"

Interesting though how the final outcomes of both the Ravens and Colts game were similar but the way we got there were quite different. The O was on fire from the very beginning in Colt's game but it took big D sparks to energize the O in the Ravens game. Who knows - maybe even Dri Archer could cause a special teams spark in one of the next two games to motivate the rest of the team. Whatever it takes - just do it!

 

Expect the worst and hope for the best. We have the talent and firepower to "ground " the Jets. Let s just hope we have learned our lesson from all the other dissapointing losses that have cost us playoff spots. There are enough guys still here to remember the pain of those fiascos. The Jets can't beat us but we can beat ourselves. Don't give them a glimmer of hope early and they will implode on their own.

 

Man you're old!

 

To the O.P....

Just keep the cheap Vodka away from yer girlfriend/ our Team, and we`ll be fine...

I get what yer sayin, and I feel ya...

Let`s see if we can play at the same level, when we face the "weak" Jets...

That will tell me a lot about if our team has "turned the corner", or not...

We been kickin sum ass... Hope they don`t get lazy...

I wanna see LOTSA pressure, and 41 points on the board at the end of the day...

No reason we shouldn`t do that, as long as we do what we can do!!!!

GO STEELERS!!!!

 

we should see some good play mixed in with some bad play at times for this bi-polar team.

 

The jets defense is actually pretty good, but I don't think their offense can score enough points to win. I think this will be a lot closer than most people think.

 

Steelers are favoured by 6 so I think your right. It will be closer than anyone thinks..

 

Im a one game at a time guy. So Ill only comment on the Jets game. As I and others have posted here....We do sometimes play to our competition. Lets hope that doesnt happen this week.

I see 7 throwing 3 TDs against that D and 26 running for 1 28-10.

 

Lithium anyone?

 

As long as the Steelers have Tomlin, I see nothing more than an average team who will occasionally win playing top tier teams like we saw the past few weeks, and loose to teams at the bottom of the rankings as we are seeing now. The Steelers under Tomlin will remain inconstant.
