News Flash!!!! The road to the playoffs is never easy. Especially if you are a wild card and all your games are on the road. I don't think anybody really thinks so.

If the Steelers are performing well in November and December then it won't matter who the opponent is.  That's part of being the Champs.  Beating every other team, regardless.  The Ravens will be desperate.  I believe they will be the Steelers toughest opponent.  I see that Oucho Stinko sent deodorant to the Ravens secondary and to Ravens linebackers Lewis & Suggs.  Is he saying that the Ravens secondary stinks?!!!

Some guys just can't leave it alone.

GO STEELERS!

quoting Dunio:

After we were noted as having one of the NFL's weakest schedules, I don't think our remaining schedule is a walk in the park. In fact, we have some difficult games remaining.

Broncos in Denver

Bengals at home

Ravens twice

Packers

Dolphins in Miami

(Then we have games we should win against KC, Raiders, and Browns)

6 of our final 9 games are going to be difficult games. The other 3....any given Sunday.

I feel better doing it this way, but we are definitely going to have to earn our way into the playoffs.









Im pretty sure the dolphins will be looking at our last tapes against the browns to see how they had successful plays with the wildcat against the steelers defense. Being that its the last game in the regular season it may be a meaningless win but i sure hope that Tomlin & lebou has the guys ready for that one




A meaningless win? AFC North is just about a three way tie and you are comfortable saying the last game of the season will be a meaningless one?! I would disagree and say that it may end up being quite a pivotal game for us and for the Dolphins... i do not know where u get saying that from...

try rereading my post a few time until it clicks! See where i said being that it is the last game it may be!!! If the steelers win out from here and are 13-2 going into that game then a first round bye would be a lock, possibly even be the #1 seed(it could happen)so that could very well be meaningless, just like in 07 the steelers could have swept the division if they had played the starters in that last game against the ravens but instead it was "meaningless" to them and they lost

As Tomlin would say...we'll take one game at a time playing hard 4qtrs in all aspects of the game and let everything else take care of itself.



 OK. But where have these Steelers been?

Every season is different and some are more parity than others.  This season has parity to it.  But that type of season can still boast well for the Steelers.
