Yeah I have to agree that you will indeed be contenders.
The back-2-back wins over the eventual SB finalists was a fantastic achievement and shows that this is not a fluke year - that they can consistently match up against the best in the NFL.

I would stake fairly large money that we are going to see alot of 8-in-the-box stuff against the Steelers this year - forcing Ben to throw.
What the Steelers need to do is add a bit of spontaneity to their play calling - the bash bash smash mouth football will only take you so far before D coaches work you out.
I would like to see more passes on first down, as you could almsot stake the house that Pitts would run on this down almost everytime last year.
