Last night was a hard fought game against one of the best teams in the NFL. How many times was it said "this could be a Super Bowl preview"? Personally, I don't agree with that because I think getting past New England is going to be next to impossible, but this is still a very good team.
We're not missing the playoffs, but the game against Pitt will likely be for the North, and they at this time look like the more complete team with Big Ben healthy and that offense clicking (hey we couldn't stop Palmer, and his no name receivers). It's not far fetched to think we get in via the wild card. Even if that seems like a letdown after the 8-0 start. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we lost the north. The Steelers aren't that far behind us with a game against us left. They don't look like they are losing anytime soon.
