Meanwhile, the undefeated Bengals look to an easy win on Monday night to continue their historic march to glory.

The big question is: what are Steelers fans excited about? Is it because they are barely in playoff position with 8 whole weeks to go and a decimated roster of weaklings? Or is it because they allowed a poor team to hang 35 points on their soft defense? Perhaps it's because the return of Big Ben did not culminate in a  supposedly world-class offense that has only ever appeared on paper? Or maybe it's because all that matters to the Steelers is having a "respectable" season this year, given that the standards must lower since the talent clearly has.

I personally think Steelers fans should stop thinking playoffs and start thinking franchise relocation. Their fanbase will dwindle by at least 90% if they do not win a Super Bowl in the next 2 years, a pipe dream that causes any sane person  chuckles at the mere thought of.

What say you?

Johnstownsteel has returned. Could this signify that the return of BenGirlSmasher is inevitable and soon upon us?

WTS, the Steelers are currently outside looking in. Jets and Bills are 5-6.

Even making the playoffs will be tough for them.  They play 4 straight games against playoffs contenders coming out of their bye[@Seattle, Indy, @Cinci, Denver], then play back to back division games on the road against rivals who will be looking to spoil their season.  They are well behind on the Wild Card tiebreakers, with a 2-4 conference record and the Raiders owning head to head.  They will definitely need 10 wins to have a chance.

(11-14-2015, 05:28 PM)IsaacCurtis Wrote: you have an interesting view of assumed math. The Steelers can easily make a wildcard and are only 2 games behind the Bengals.

youve seen the Seahawks lose and only beat weak teams while the Steelers have won with back ups and you think Seattle will be tough?
Indy is dead.
