    The Bengals win and are now 8-6, the Ravens lose and are also 8-6, they went for two at the end for the win and it failed :hehehe:. Let's go Raiders tomorrow and beat the Browns, the Steelers are 7-6-1.

    We have beaten Buffalo, Baltimore and Tennessee. We will crush another AFC champion favorite next week the Kansas City Chiefs and this board will still b!tch like spoiled feet…..

    Steelers are the team to beat, they’re not even playing their best football right now and still putting up wins. They teasing the naysayers, the pu$$y willows on this board.

    we going to the super bowl read this and weep. Haters!

    Steeler path is clear

    KC beats Bengals (Chiefs 66% chance to win)
    GB beats Browns (Packers 76%)
    Steelers beats Browns (Steelers 51%)

    and either

    Bengals beats Ravens (Bengals 54%) and Browns beat Bengals (Browns 60%)

    or

    Ravens beats Bengals (Ravens 46%) and Rams beat Ravens (Ravens 51%)

    In that case, the Steelers would win the AFCN if the Steelers beat the Ravens in Week 18



    If the Steelers pull the upset in KC (KC 82%), it could allow them to win the AFCN if

    Steelers beat Browns (Steelers 51%)
    Bengals beat the Ravens (Bengals 54%), lose to the Chiefs (KC 66%) and Browns (Browns 60%)
    Browns lose to the Packers (Packers 76%)
    Ravens lose to Bengals (Bengals 54%), Rams (Ravens 51%)

    Browns - Raiders and Ravens - Steelers game become meaningless

    The biggest odd against the Steelers is @ Ravens in week 18 (Ravens 67%)

    But honestly, who wouldn't take a shot in week 18 (essentially it's a playoff game) even if it is 2:1 against given the way the year has gone to this point.

    Bengals are going to be tough for many years to come. They have a little "Joe Montana " brewing at QB. Burrows has the " It" factor.

    There are three losses that hurt far more than the tie

    1. Bengals loss at home
    2. Chargers loss
    3. Raiders loss

    The good news is they have a family ownership that is very reluctant to spend money so a supporting cast for Joe may not be there.

    They'd still be in a tough spot - they lose tiebreakers to Cincy, Chargers, Vegas and probably can't catch Indy in conference record.

    If they were 8-6 right now, they'd still be on the outside looking in with Browns win over Vegas tomorrow.

    I watched the game, not only did he go for 2 again... he went for it on 4th down very early in the 4th quarter on their side of the field, which quickly turned into Packers points. The game was practically over at that point.

    The dude is an idiot.

    So next week assuming the Steelers lose in KC and drop to 7-7-1 you probably want Baltimore to beat the Bengals and then lose to the Rams the following week, and then the Bengals lose to KC at home the following week. If that all happens and the Steelers beat the Browns on Jan 3rd and the Browns lose to either the Raiders tomorrow or In Green Bay on Christmas the Steelers can win the AFC North with a win in Baltimore in week 18. The Bengals would come into that game 8-8, the Browns 8-8 and the Ravens 9-7 if that scenario I talked about above all plays out. Winning in KC somehow next week would be huge and change everything and really put the Steelers I feel in the drivers seat to win the North.

    I didn't agree with him going for two against the Steelers, but I understood it. Doing it against the Packers seemed to me to be him telling his defense he didn't trust them to stop the Packers offense. Well, maybe you wouldn't have had to make the call if you hadn't gone for it on 4th and given GB excellent FP when the attempt failed. Two pretty bad decisions by Hairball today. I can't convey to you all how terrible I feel about it.

    This has the resemblance of what someone would post using acquired nonsense absorbed from our current governments public educational system. Please tell me you still are in grade school. JMO>

    There are no tiebreakers for the Steelers anymore this season with the Detroit tie in there. They are either gonna have one more win then somebody else or one more loss that will either get them in the playoffs or ultimately keep them out.

    There were many people on this board praising Hairball for going for the jugular couple weeks ago when he made the same decision against us. I wonder what they think of his decision now?
