Everyone seems to think that the Ravens are so far ahead of the Steelers.

I disagree. Let's take a look...

The only difference between Steelers and Ravens are two games, a piece: Steelers=Raiders,Titans; Ravens=Browns,Cowboys.

What? Yes.

The only difference is that the Raiders and Titans managed last ditch effort scores against the Steelers, but the Browns and Cowboys failed at similar attempts.

On the complete flip side of all four games, the records would be: Steelers=4-1, Ravens-3-3
If both teams split those two games we'd have: Steelers=3-2, Ravens=4-2

There are only small differences that separate these two teams, based on these games... If you look at it, closely, the Ravens would probably have lost if they have played the Raiders/Titans based on the last score scenarios. The only reason they beat the Browns/Cowboys was because those two teams failed to execute. Otherwise, the Ravens were not stopping them. Conversely, Raiders/Titans did execute.

That's the only difference.

It's not all bad, people. Steelers just need small tweaks and tighter focus/discipline.

actually we are 2 1/2 games back of the ravens not 2.. Thats like being 3 back.. and we have lost to 2 of the 4 easiests teams we play this season.. our ez part of the schedule is over.. and the injuries.. they got suggs back.. we lost troy.. mendy and redman hurt.. decastro is still out but they got suggs back faster than we got decastro.. shane is out for the season.. pouncey is hurt.. sure they lost ray ray and a couple others.. but we are banged up and so are they .. but the fact remains we are 2 1/2 games out and they stilllllllllllllllllllll look better than we do ..

I didn't say we were two games back. I made a comparison of the two teams based on two games. Different deal. And 2 1/2 is 2 1/2 not 3. Otherwise, it'd be 3.

They look better? Based on what? Of course they have the better record, but that wasn't the purpose of my post. So you're arguing what? Personnel only? Each team has a 53-man roster. Game time.

Agree to disagree.

Are we watching the same games? Our D could not stop the Raiders or the Titans. Two of the worst team in the Nfl. What do you think is going to happen against the good teams like the rat birds, giants, pats, Houston, etc. Do you think the rat birds would loose to the raiders or titans? Sorry but we don't have a healthy team and our back ups are not coming through.

That doesn't make me feel any better. Our defense is struggling in a major way.Our offense has to execute to cover up for their inability right now.The defense have been doing this for years for this offense.
