That's an interesting stat.

If we can get back to form, I think we'll be competitive with any of the playoff teams.

If we play like we did against Cincy and Washington, we lost by a fair margin.

It's pretty obvious, but I think we need the D to keep generating turnovers + at least average play from Ben.

Yeah but is losing 4 of your last 5 games to end the regular season the right formula for making a Super Bowl run?

IMO one of the most important factors in winning football games is confidence. When Ben was at his prime and the Steelers were down 4 points with about a minute to play, the team was 100% confident that Ben would lead them to a TD. And they were right since Ben rarely failed to win in those conditions. Tomlin obviously feels that the team has regained its confidence, and that rest is more important than building more momentum heading to the playoffs.

If my memory serves me right, if you count the teams in contention for a seed Indy, Dallas etc for all teams, it changes from
KC 4-0
STEELERS 6-1 or 6-2 depending on Dallas or Washington
Ravens 3-4
Colts 2-4
Miami 2-4
And I think the Browns 3-3
To name a few.

The Steelers and Ravens add a win, if the Colts make it Steelers add 2 if Dallas makes it or drop1 if Washington makes it. Bills drop 1 if the Cards make it. Etc

We're about to go to 9-3 vs. playoff teams

[SteelerMaine83]

We’ve played 5 of them and beat 4 of them. Bottom line: having a winning record against playoff teams is a good indicator. We play our best against the best.

I hope you are correct.

It's time for my nervous breakdowns to begin.

We hope you are correct.

Vegas has us behind the Chiefs, Bills, and Ravens in their current SuperBowl odds.

Our numbers look better because of our hot start. But it's now how you start, it's how you finish.

Our recent trends don't look so good.

I find that liquor helps.

I don't think that's unreasonable.

I'd probably put us ahead of the Ravens because we should face KC a game later.

But the Ravens have looked like the much better team since our last game.
