The Steelers chances of getting by New England this year just got a whole lot better

Chris Hogan killed them in the AFCCG, 180 yards and 2 TDs.

 

It would help if the Steelers could get a lead on the Pats, instead of always playing from behind then Ben has to throw just about every down.

 

Very true. As I posted before, a healthy Bell and a healthy WR last year would have made us much more competitive.

 

Chris Hogan is now hurt, and suddenly the Pats are playing in a much more competitive division. I live in New England, and can tell you that my numerous Pats fans friends are very apprehensive about their team's fate this season. They only beat the Jets because of a bad call, the Falcons game was played in the fog, and they were hardly overwhelming against the Chargers yesterday- who shot themselves in the foot repeatedly and still took them down to the final play. Not your Patriots of the past, this team is dying to get dethroned.

 

Unfortunately all those asterisks are still W's, just like their super bowl wins. They're hurting but still finding ways to win.
