Probably because the Steelers have a good run defense. Well except for last week. Don’t know what happened last week. 

My hope is that the Steelers are losing their will. They pretty much know they are not going anywhere near the post season at this point. Hopefully that leads to some smart business decisions this Sunday.

I think this is going to be a helluva game. Both teams are fighting for their coach and a lot of pride. In our case, we're also fighting for a very distinct possibility of a miracle on the season. 

The two teams are remarkably similar in their weaknesses and strengths. They both want to be better teams than they are. And they'll field a roughly 50/50 assortment in the crowd on Sunday.

This could be a classic.

I think it's going to be a great atmosphere even with all the Steelers fans.  Hopefully the stadium will be full with people actually in the seats.

The only game in the last 4+ years at BOA that has had a truly great atmosphere was Cam's return last year, and that was short-lived.

This should be playoff level intensity, which is ironic for two 5-8 teams, but I think it could be.

Also, if we win, that game against the Lions will be an intense one to close out the season at home.

...anyone else feel like this is a trap game for us? It just feels that way. Media picking us. 2 game win streak. Just feel like there's an outside chance that this team might be high on the wins and not focus. Technically I don't think that this team has played MEANINGFUL December football. If Wilks directs this pack of men and keeps their heads on straight. Man...January football could be beautiful. Here's hoping that they don't fug this up. 

Sunday is the biggest game this team has played in YEARS.  If we win, and the Bengals beat Tampa, we will be in first place in the NFC South.  Its amazing to even be in this situation after how utterly pathetic this team was under Rhule, and after trading away one of the best playmakers in the league, your WR2, and your opening day starting QB.  poo like this just does not happen in the NFL. God, I hope we win.  By Sunday evening we could be in first place and in a playoff slot.

Your prob right and that's kinda sad really.

Yeah if we can't win a home game against a bottom 10 team with their starting qb out, we don't deserve to have our sights set on the playoffs. Come out unprepared and lose and it would take a miracle finish for Wilks to have any chance to keep the head coaching job. This is where he shows his mettle. You have to have the entire team firing on all cylinders.

Well last week is on tape, so we will see if Wilks can earn his job by exploiting the weaknesses the Steelers displayed last week.

    • TNT crew loves them some Colorado. I did hear one of them say "King" at one point, so I'm fairly sure that's who they're playing...lol
    • This is just a different type of draft. There's no top shelf compared to recent drafts. In the last ten years or so, there was a clear group. The issue with this draft is the best players are at lowered valued spots. Plus I said before Id always take the 8th best edge/de over the best safety. Panthers have always overrated LBs and RB compared to the league, but they did get safety right in terms of not valuing it. Mike Minter was about it, others die hards can bring up...  Still in order to better receive this draft, once you drop the positional value and just take the best player, its easier to understand. Very odd draft and the first time in history I can recall needing to do this. Just memeber coofus and NIL have changed the draft. There's lots more older players, cause now money to a guy that maybe 6th or maybe UD..... I mean Id take the college girls and 800k too, I think....
    • Good write up OP..... I may be the outlier here but I like our WR sans XL. Metchie is sneaky good and just like Dowdle last year he WILL BE the biggest under the radar singing of this year FA moves. I am warming up to the idea of Sadiq at 19 over defense. I'm just ready for every BY excuse to be gone, he doesn't have this or that. No he just sucks and we need to move on. Honestly I've said it before but this team has been depleted of so much talent over the years we really could go BPA and be fine. In DM I trust..........for now
