    Of course certain posters wanted other players drafted. I just remember any of them saying the player we actually selected was a terrible, no talent pick.
    The only thing I’m blaming the fans for is being hypocritical.
    Praise our picks, predict 11 or 12 wins and then turn around and say we have no talent. Especially when we lose to a terrible team and then hear ‘every team in the nfl is talented. All teams have great players. Wins/Loses usually come fine to turnovers. Parody paroday parody.
    if you can then do it.. lol.

    Why do I have to provide proof when this thread is filled with the fans you lied about praising all the picks. They are telling you how they reacted.

    anyway.. you just admitted you predicted .500 and said they could’ve won more which is odd since you think all the picks sucked.. but we have talent?

    Hell, I’m still confused what your actual argument is about.

    Mad at the fans?

    Do we have talent or not?

      What’s more interesting is you predicted 12 wins but claimed we had no talent.
      You also said they wouldn’t make the playoffs.
      Not sure how you thought 12 wins wouldn’t get them in but, whatever.
      I predicted 11 or 12 because I’m a Steeler fan.

      I will predict 11 or 12 next year too. Maybe more depending on how I feel.

      Anyone who is smart will realize people can make bold prediction and also have realistic expectations.

      Do I expect the playoffs next year with our current roster and Mason at QB? Nope..

      Will I predict our record to reflect it?

      Hell no.

        Obviously you are confused.
        You said 12 wins.
        With no talent
        And no playoffs.
        How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

          So you’ll hedge your bet to try to save face.

            o-ine... really no need to say any more there.

            d-line was an injury thing...

            Ingram also kinda shafted the OLB rotation, but it was still sufficient...

              Sort of saying, "I wish we can go 12-5, but in reality, I think we go 9-8".

                its really that simple.. lol.

                and the reality is after the 1-3 start I damn sure adjusted my expectations because guess what? I can.. lol.

                still not sure how going 9-7-1 when I predicted 11 or 12 wins is so far off that its some crazy prediction.

                  Shame on you. We only work in absolutes in this forum. "we are the greatest", "we suck", "the draft picks are all-pro", "we have no talent"

                    basically..

                    you really take these W/L predictions seriously? lmao.

                    Just cause your name used to be squidkid doesn’t mean this is Squid Games where you get killed if your prediction is too high or too low.

                      Have to remember whatever changed his name because he lost a bet.

                      He is one of those “I bet we lose next game and the loser has to leave the board” type of guys.

                          LOL, well played. I get the point, and it's fine to be a fan filled with optimism.

                            Another lie. I never had to change my name because I lost a bet.

                            Ironic how ‘I don’t have a life’ yet you chase me and maniac around every post.

                              You said 12 wins.
                              With no talent
                              And no playoffs.
                              I said 11 or 12 wins..
                              with some talent
                              which makes the playoffs

                              but there was never a time where I said we had no talent or a ton of talent.

                              but my prediction isn’t really much different than your “we suck, we have no talent, draft sucks again… but I can see us backing into the playoffs” prediction a few weeks ago.

                              See how easy it is to do?

                                yes.. you literally just did it the other week when you said you could see us backing into the playoffs.

                                and guess what?

                                no one cared.. you based it off the stats in front of you at the time.
