No respect. As an osu guy ill bring up an example. In 2014 buckeyes won title preseason rankings come out next year alabama number 1 just like they have been for the last 9 year. In this analogy steelers are alabama. We wont and will never get any respect by the national media. But that is fine by me bc we have the best team in the nfl the last 5 years. Ill take best team over respect any day.
What amount of respect would a team with 0 playoffs despite being the "best team in the league" for half a decade deserve, anyways? I'm not sure I follow this line of thinking.
