Pitt lost last yr to Cincy @ home to go 7-5 and put them in danger of missing the playoffs and we all know how that turned out. It appears & pains me to say that (this season) the Steelers play better w/ Batch @ the helm.

Most people take 3 or 4 weeks to recover from an appendectomy. The fact that he's playing is admirable from an "iron man" perspective, but he's hurting the team. Just like McNabb did when he played hurt last year.
Ben didn't play his best game, but back to back turnovers, one inside our own 10 and the other on our own 30 really didn't help our cause. There were lots of catchable balls dropped as well. The Steelers need to just pull it together. They look very disjunctured. FYI, the Bengals are overrated. They won't get far this year either.

Right now, the 4 best teams are; Seattle, Indy, Chicago, & the Bengals.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not writing the Pats off for the season, but right now they're just not insync offensively like they should be. And faced with that highpowered offense I would not want to be BB this week.
I'm curious to see what Baltimore's D does to the Steelers and Ben. It might not be pretty. I'm with BF1. I don't know if Pittsburgh can make the playoffs. They lost some key guys and it shows and I'm not sure Ben Roelisberger gets back to his normal self as fast as the Steelers need him to. I think this team needed the bye week more than any team in football right now and they should just go from there with Ben. If he needs more time, don't rush him back.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BearsFan1)</div><div class='quotemain'>is obviously in effect, i doubt this team is going to make playoffs at this point.</div> After week 3 we can say that? Sorry - I'm not drinking that water. The Steelers have a great coach and a proven QB. He is playing poorly right now (maybe he shouldn't be playing?) but is a proven player. Give this team a few weeks and then decide if they are going to miss the playoffs.

The Ravens barely beat the Browns this week. If Stover misses that 51 yarder, are we talking about the Ravens falling apart? It will be interesting to see what happens this week if Chicago drops one at home to Seattle.....

I've got a $100 bet with a friend that the Pats lose by at least 20 points. He thinks that they'll do like they always seem to do and bounce back big time after a miserable loss. Me thinks he's DEAD wrong, as dead as the Pats are against Denver. I want to be optimistic, I really do, but that was scary sad last Sunday against the Broncos. I've never seen such a piss poor attitude from the Pats before.
