Do the Steelers realistically have a good chance to win tonight?

    I’m going to be there as well. Want Steelers to win out and Ravens to end like they did last year

    I think we have a decent chance to win tonight. The Colts are very beatable, but so are the Steelers.

    If Watt had no injury all year, we would be at least 5-5 IMO. I wonder if bettors and computer models factor that in properly.

    Raiders game is a guaranteed loss. Doesn't matter how bad the Raiders are because they own the Steelers.

    Not at Heinz Field.....or Acrisure.... whatever the hell it's called. We get Raiders at Pittsburgh.

    Steelers lose on the west coast.

    The result tonight is an indictment of why Saturday should have never been offered the HC position.

    what? that he has a makeshift Oline and an old QB that can't pass any more? How did his coaching lose that game , last night? Steelers took it to them / him in the 4th Q. Colts had BRAND NOW OC too, is that Saturday's fault? that plus 2 TO's won it for us. Saturday did not fumble the handoff to Taylor.....

    Here is some other crazy thinking:

    1. We win out, finish 10-7. (EXTREMELY unlikely)

    If that near impossible happens first then:

    2. Ratbirds: Lose just one more game other than the two they will lose to us. They finish 10-7. We would have tie breaker head to head. (VERY probable)

    3. Bungles: Lose 3 games (they have Buffalo and KC left). They finish 10-7. We would have better division record. (VERY possible)

    Guess who division champ is if all that happens.

    Knowing the passing game is weak, they had no commitment to the run in the first half. Then abandoning the run in the second half after it got them back in the game. And the time management in the end. It’s not like they lost to the Chiefs last night. They lost to the Steelers who have similar issues to what you pointed out.

    I don't see the Bengals losing 7 games. Plus, they get Chase and Mixon back. Steelers lost to the entire AFC East division, so wild card would be near impossible even with 10 wins.

    Agree wildcard even at 10-7 is doubtful.

    Regarding division: Bungles losing to KC and Buffalo likely. They also have @NE and Ratbirds. Very possible they finish 10-7.

    The crazy part is us winning out.

    No. They have no chance at all. Not a snowball’s chance in hell of winning.

    Biggest reason wildcard will be difficult, even at 10-7, is that we lose tiebreakers to all 4 AFC East teams.

    The key word was "realistic." As bad as the season has been, it was a legitimate question. They almost looked like they were going to do the same thing in the 2nd half that they did with Cincinnati, but thankfully they turned it around.

    We'll see if Cincy is the real thing next week, against KC. If they are, our 1 td loss to them starts to look better.

    How does it look better and to who? Style points don't matter as much as W's and L's. Losing by a TD to the bungholes isn't going to get a team way under .500 into the playoffs.

    Really that only matters if You tie with a AFC team. None of us knows what those AFCE team will finish with.

    Walking out of Lucas Oil Field I overheard two Colts fans talking and one of them said that "Kenny Pickett is a rookie and he didn't play scared at all. Matt Ryan was playing scared all game long."

    To me, hearing an opposing fan say that was very encouraging.
