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?

I want to see them win the home games.  Browns, Broncos, Raiders.  At 5 wins, so that makes 8 wins.  That leaves going to Baltimore, LA Chargers, Cleveland, Pittsburg to try to get 10 wins.  Win At Home, Split On The Road would bring 10 win season, maybe play-offs.  A win at Baltimore makes them 6-4 and sets up still in play-off picture. I Quit on Bengals during Saints game, but coaching changes have me back Rooting. GO BENGALS.
