Realistic Expectations?

[whatever]

We have Tomlin. He is the reason for the Steelers success the past 12 years. His greatness will carry us to the super bowl.

[Oh wow]

drama didnt seem to help us last year.

It was already over when it all fell apart in the last game.

Even still, we were a Browns FG from the playoffs.

We also had a FG kicker who forgot how to kick which cost us.

I don’t think any of the drama stopped us from the playoffs.

the bell drama started long before the bengals game

[Ernie]

other than that you are right in that we were close to the playoffs. drama is never a good thing though

[whatever]

I thought I heard we didn't have any drama. The media made it up

[Oh wow]

the bell drama started long before the bengals game

I don’t think it impacted our first game.

Remember we were up and had it under control before the fumble by Conner.

That was an ugly game.

Even still, the team rallied around Conner and we pushed through.

This offseason was so quiet I think players forgot it was go time.

Said no one ever.

Well we have still have an awesome defense to fall back on

honestly if we can cut down on the 3 and outs and actually sustain some drives... i can see the defense keeping us in some games.. they were gassed in the 2nd half

[Steel Maniac]

Questions fellas ,

What do you expect in this game in Frisco? On offense and on defense; specifically.

Yup. I think we see a healthy dose of Vance and the running game.

Also think Mason and Rudolph create some magic.

[NorthCoast]

Pessimistic view: the Steelers battle the Browns for last place finish in the division

Optimistic view: defense gets its act together, Rudolph steals a few wins from unsuspecting opponents and the Steelers grab a wild card

I'm an optimist until further notice...... anyone want to join me?

[tiproast]

Also think Mason and Rudolph create some magic.

Those two guys have already developed some real chemistry.
