if you cant stop the run... play the steelers.

if you cant sack the qb.... play the steelers.

if you can return a kick more than 5 yds... play the steelers.

Why don't you think it is okay for fans to be upset when their team plays a pathetic team and loses?

I for one thought the steelers were better than this but apparently I was wrong....they showed not once, not twice, but three times this year that they cannot be a consistent football team

I was thinking the same thing...

We're still atop the divison by two games - I'm looking ahead, not back. Am I pissed about the loss? Damn straight. But what good does 20 straight posts in all CAPS of "We suck!" "Fire Arians!" "Bench Troy!" "We'll never win again!," etc., etc. do? Does it erase the "L?"

well, we are playing for the 3rd seed now. we are begging for other teams to help us out if we expect anything better than that. i dont think thats gonna happen.

if we know any one thing it is that the steelers dont handle success well.

OK - so now what?

IMO they will beat the Dolphins & Bengals at home, get smashed in New England, and win in St. Louis + Baltimore if they need to.

So the Jax game probably is the key to 11-5 or 12-4.

Since i do not see a repeat of 2005, is one and done in the playoffs a successful season? I say yes.
