    This Steelers team can rebound and win the next two games against Baltimore at home next Sunday and on the road at Minnesota on that Thursday night the following week and get to 7-5-1 and keep their chances at a wildcard alive?? Looking at the standings the 7th wildcard spot is still somewhat up for grabs but if the Steelers are gonna have any and I mean any chance of hoping to compete for that spot they MUST win these next two games with the Ravens and Vikings. I think a loss in either one and all playoff talk at least from where I sit will be officially done.

    I think with a lot of these teams in the AFC in the mix for that 7th wildcard spot all playing each other a lot the next 2-3 weeks I am gonna hold off in saying they are completely done and out of it until they lose to either the Ravens or Vikings the next 2 weeks. I think a loss in either one of those games and they are all but done realistically.

    No. They've been trying to lose games for several weeks now and are finally playing teams who can deliver the L's. This one feels like it's going to last a while.

    I think they can afford to probably lose at least one more game but it absolutely can’t happen in the next 2-3 weeks. They pretty much have to win the Ravens and Vikings games and probably the Titans game as well if they wanna stay realistically in the wildcard race.

    I have seen it all so anything is possible but its not just one bad game this year. I dont know how this can get fixed with the huge dropoff in depth vs talent, skill, etc

    Always a chance that`s why we watch. But I would like to see this rebuild get underway with a high draft pick.
    We have been kicking ass for a long time now. It about time ours get`s kicked around.

    id love to see some changes or something to find a spark but the cupboard is bare and the philosophy seems to be filed in the can’t teach old dogs new tricks. That was embarrassing no doubt but alas now it’s ravens week LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!

    I think you meant game but oddly enough it could be a gene thing as it appears they might be a chromosome short in some ways hahahaha

    Of course there is a chance but the way the defence is playing I just don’t see it. We can’t stop the run or the pass

    The hardest part for me resides in remembering the lean years. Those teams didn’t have the talent but they were all guts! This team regardless of talent be it aged or no depth or lack of urgency/acumen just does not seem to have guts! They caught lightning in a bottle in the 4th last week and came up short and sure... they had to have the ball bounce their way to get it going but that was awesome! Today was just flat out embarrassing. No pride to be found from my view point in much if any of it.
    you used to be able to count on rival week atleast having some sort of pulse to it but that is now 2 showings against the bengals where the team just quit. That’s hard to swallow.

    Just not in the playoffs. TOMLIN doesn’t win those games. He’s not going to be winning many games for a long long time.

    They get one more win to finish 6-10-1. This is an untalented and soft football team that right now fundamentally stinks and is poorly coached.

    Yeah they had some serious discussion going on . Didn’t look like nothing against each other, but more like at certain players(I maybe reading more out of it, but Don't think so)Would loved 2 have heard. Anyway I believe this will Be brought up during the week of what they are seeing out there. Sure can't hurt.
