The bottom line for me is that this team has been banged up since day one. We have dealt with a patchwork line and worked around inexperience at key positions....QB....DE...OT...WR....TE...SS....etc.

We have had to simplify our offense in regards to line assignments and route running. Our RB and QB have had to deal with collapsed holes and communication breakdowns at the line.

After all this...we are winning our division and are the #2 seed in the AFC. We have one of the best Run defenses in the hisroty of the game. We are looking at the prospect of being able to rest some of our key players and possibly even get Aaron Smith back for the playoffs. With all our problems we are still playing teams tough and will roll over any team that looks past us.

With all the adversity that we are overcoming...I am already happy with the season. As Steeler Fans we are spoiled...thinking that anything short of another Lombardi is a dissapointment.

Not me....I am already happy that the Steelers have overachieved to the point that they have.

Lombardi or not....This team has proved they are winners.

As a Steelers fan I go into every season believing that my team has what it takes to get to the playoffs, and from there compete for a Super Bowl.

This season is living up to my expectations perfectly.

A-freakin-men! :applaudit: :applaudit: :applaudit:

Though I'd love nothing more than to see our Steelers win a Lombardi every season, common sense tells me that is impossible. I go into every season wanting to see a team who gives it their all whether or not that "all" results in a playoff appearance or Super Bowl trophy. I hold no fantasy land expectations and make no demands. Just give it your best shot is all I ask.

With that being said, I'm going to be right there cheering our boys on their Super Bowl run this season. They have more than earned their place in this season's playoffs! I BELIEVE! :tt02: :tt03:

AMEN!!!

Mike Tomlin has done an incredible job this year after the Steelers had a disastrous off-season.


10-4 is really very good!

I like where we are at as well and, we have a good chance to win it all. It seems we embrace adversity.
