I don't mean after the season either.

What would you need to see on Sunday that would make you think that maybe this team can in fact go to the playoffs?

How about the next 3 games?  Not just winning.  As that would definitely help, but what type of win would make you regain the faith that was evident earlier in the season.

For me personally, I would like to see sound tackling.  The defense not looking so lost on the field.  To know where they are supposed to go and to do what they are supposed to do.  I would also like to see Pittsburgh lose the next 3 games, as that would put us over them.

The next 3 games are crucial for us.  Winning at Baltimore and the next 2 at home against the Browns and the Broncos would give us an 8-4 record.  If the Steelers lose the next 3 (@Jacksonville, @Denver and at home against the Chargers) and then their record would be 6-5-1.  Even if they win 1 or 2 of those games then they will have a 7-4-1 or 8-4-1 respectively.  If they win all 3, then they do have a 9-4-1 record with us a game and a half behind.

So let's say we do win the next 3, what would make you think we go on a run and not only make the postseason but make some noise while there?

Like you said, sound tackling to go along with better coverage and some passion honestly.

Need to get some of that fire, some of that want, that is what the best teams get going into the Playoffs.

Stopping Offenses on 3rd down is the big one. This has to happen. Cannot be frickin' automatic, DAMN!

Young guys coming along like Billings, Ross, Vigil, Evans, WJ3, Price would be a great start.

I think all of these guys have lots of talent but it has yet shown Price obviously cause of the injury.

Will also add that Geno needs to get to his earlier play this season, seems to have disappeared lately.
