they'll have to go on the road every single game to get to the SB. This is THE test. I just hope after this win, and possibly 2 more, that the Steelers don't get too high on themselves for two home wins, that better Steelers teams should win.

I have to agree, and I'd say additionally they're trying to convince the fans, one of which (myself), really doesn't believe it.

so does that mean abandoning the running game and going with all deep bombs to Wallace?

I echo that.

Truth be told, not too confident in their chances this year as I was a week or two ago. I have been saying for weeks that they are gonna be turning things around now with getting guys like Polamalu, Mendenhall, DeCastro, Colon back in the lineup, and it really looked like the Steelers were turning a corner, and totally under the radar. I thought they were gearing up for a playoff run.

Then they layed a big, fat, fucking egg at Heinz this weekend to a bottom dweller.....yet again. That game kinda dashed my hopes on the rocks.

Their loss to the Chargers was a perfect representation of everything that went wrong with this season-- injuries, undisciplined play/penalties, aging veterans given too much playing time over fresher guys, broken offensive line, unable to score more than 27 points per game.

I am just holding out hope that with all the guys just returning from injuries; Brown, Polamalu, DeCastro, etc. that maybe it is not too late for them to get it together and gear up for December football.

These guys CAN do it-- it is just a matter of WILL they.

to whoever is hatin' on Tomlin; SHUT UP! hes a great coach, it's our team that needs to improve, his coaching is fine. He was totally right to suspend selfish mendenhall for now showing up to work.
The Cowboys present a great test this weekend. They are playing good right now and in a playoff race. If we can beat them preferably with out looking like a bunch of clowns) than we have a shot. If we lose(looking like a bunch of clowns) than go ahead and flush us down the toilet, forfeit the next two games, Draft a running back with out 7-9 redcord we might end up getting a chance at a good half back. Hey if we win, lets steam roll the bungles and clowns and keep it going in the play offs. I would be happy ig this team just wins one playoff game, I dont think we are capable of beating the Broncos, Patriots or Texans, sorry. Unless we magically transform into a team that can get control of the ball, and maintain control of the ball, not look like a bunch of clowns that look so pathetic I hear circus music while they are chasing the ball around the field like a bunch of stupid idiots.

We win and we're in. That's all there is to it. 3 wins gets us in the tournament. That would put all the BS losses behind us and gives us a shot. Here we go...!
