BTW fins backup center Samson Sateles dad was my good friend growing up in the same town in Hawaii. He always had my back when trouble came my way and no sane person wanted to mess with him. He was huge just like his kid, also a highly recruited college center wth NFL potential but he flunked out of college. So happy his kid is having a long NFL career.

no way we beat NY Jets, Dolphins and the Pats. We will lose one of these games and it's probably vs the Pats or Jets

Disagree.

Miami and the Jets have QB issues and the Pats are due.

This schedule is a piece of cake. I see no tough stretches. We should end up with a first round bye and home field throughout the afc playoffs. Since Bad Ben shows up every once in a while I will say 15-1, 14-2 at the worst. Only thing that changes this would be a rash of injuries like last year. Looks like Ben will get #3 next year. And the franchise will get #7.

And I thought I was a doom and gloomer.

Anyhow, this is the 1st year in some time I have not thought the league was out to destroy the Steelers. Going back to opening in Denver after losing there [2011] in the PO's. A game which was supposed to be a game here but was changed. Then last year opening in NE. It would be impossible to dream up any worse scenarios to start seasons, I thought, although there was disagreement. But the net results in all these years was the one strange PO win in Cinci last year.

But the optimism is not unfounded. However, a solid draft [very possible] and a confirming TC will be needed before I drink the Koolaid.

btw: your user name belies your extreme optimism.

No major injuries and I see 11-5 as the floor.

14-2 the ceiling

I agree with you floor and ceiling. Its all about avoiding key injuries.
