    Currently at 9-5, after the W @ATL, what do you think our final record will be?
    Worst scenario being 9-7, out of the playoffs, and best-case scenario 11-5 and Division Champs.

    Holding onto my pre-season 11-5 prediction. And 11-5 = Division Champions. :D

    I picked 11-5. Not just because that's what I hope for, but I really do believe that they can pull it off. Pittsburgh has caused some real head-scratchers this year and laid some pretty rotten eggs, but it's my hope that they've begun to gel at the right time. The defense still needs some serious work, but if they keep up what they're doing, they can win out.

    It's often been said that what matters is what team gets hot at the end of the year (provided that they haven't lost too many for it to matter). Let's hope that's the Steelers this year.

    Man I'm torn on this, sticking with my 10-6 no playoffs, but I think 9-7 is a possibility. I'm afraid KC is going to gash us with the run. While winning the past 2 games, we've been giving up too many y/c, but no one is sticking to the run. KC will and I think it will hurt us and they will put pressure on Ben all day. I say we lose that game, KC and Ravens win out and we're on the outside looking in. We beat Cinn in the last game (though I think it can go the other way), but it's not enough.

    I think they can stop any team that runs with the right mixture of personnel and adjustments. We have seen them do fairly good against the run in a number of games. Not great but enough to allow for Ben to take to the air.

    I thought a win outta 2 clinches a birth. But we can still go 1-1 and miss the playoffs that sucks

    I am staying with 10-6, Wild Card. If we only need to win one, then I'm pretty sure we'll only win one.

    11-5 division title. Atlanta was the hump game, I think they will win the next two now. Bell should be able to run all over the Chiefs, their rushing defense isn't very good but they are very good in the redzone which will be a challenge for us, need TD's not FG's.

    Still think we'll win this one, even if they stop Bell, they will be keying on the run and open things up for Ben, we really do have a nice compliment on offense now, can hurt teams every way. Just have to punch it into the endzone when they get the chances.
