    ... is not in Eastern PA, but in Western PA. Or are they? The Steelers are 10-1 with wins over Philly & New England, but are they the best team in football? You decide. I was curious what football fans across the continent thought about the Steelers.

    A lot of threads are dedicated to Favre, Manning, the Eagles in general, but little discussion about the Steelers winning 9 in a row with a rookie QB have permiated this forum. Thoughts? Overrated?

    What's up guys?

    i think the steelers are great. Great to see Bettis having a great season. Wish deuce would have stayed healthy, bettis would have 9 TDs with like 25 yards rushing. Def. not over rated by any means. AFC playoffs will be incredibley interesting this year!

    i definitely think the steelers, then the pats n eagles tied for 2nd. the colts are a team that can look great at times, then terrible at others. so id put them 4th and behind the packers.

    I like the Steelers, alot, but still think between the Pats and Eagles it's anyones game now. The Pats and Eagles underestimated the Steelers, but if they were to play again it'd be a different game. I just don't think their's any way to tell until the super bowl, if one of the three make it

    Steelers are number 1, pats 2, colts/chargers are 3, eagles 4 and green bay 5, unless green bay wins then green bay 4 falcons 5.

    I like the way the Steelers play. Making it a point to run the ball, play solid defense and not beat yourself with stupid mistakes is as old school as it gets. That's because...it works!

    Eventually, though, the Steelers are going to run into a team that stuffs the run and Big Ben will have to beat them with his arm. He's looked great. He's looked average. He's looked bad. When that team shows up to stuff the run, Steelers fans has better hope it's on one of Ben's "good" days. [​IMG]

    I think it'll probably be the Steelers and the Pats in the AFC Championship game. The healthiest team at that point will probably win.

    I think this is the week.... This is the week the Steelers could lose. Jacksonville isn't a great team by any means, but it's a night game, nationally televised, in Jacksonville, and it's a must win for the Jags. The Steelers get Staley back but most likely won't have Burress. So it's going to rest on the defense and Roethlisberger. Of course the offensive line, Staley, and Bettis will have a big impact on the outcome, but I have a feeling Ben gets his first true test this week.
