I'm still holding out hope. The Ravens could easily lose their final 4 games. I'd put their losses over/under at 2 1/2

Nope. The Steelers team has to keep focused and win one game at a time. We can look ahead alllllll we want! And the next four weeks, are pretty dang exciting if you ask me.Quote:

I can see your point if you only read the first sentence. There is no way "we" could ever win a game on the field. I think the post in total is quite clear that I am speaking about the Steelers team. However, nitpick away.Quote:

Thats right,seven exclamation points.
Next 4 scenario
If the Steelers go 4-0
If the Ravens go 0-4
if the Bengals go 3-1 (that loss to Pittsburgh)
Steelers set at the #4 seed division Champs, Bengals would be #6 seed.
The Ravens would be at home on the sofa watching
also if the Ravens lose out and Steelers and Bengals both go 3-1 both Steelers and Bengals are in and Ravens out....
if our only loss under that scenario is to the Bengals then
Bengals and steelers are tied for 1st record wise , considering the spit under that scenario and being tied with division wins The steelers would win the division based on a better conference record ...
Wasn't clear to me - but again, I've been at Steelers bars where people say the same thing once someone starts talking about the next game, or that we're looking good for the SB, and tries to shut down the conversation.Quote:

I was using the playoff machine at ESPN - and found a scenario where the Steelers end up as the number 2 seed. I laughed. Now THAT's far fetched!Quote:

Unless we crap the bed in the next few games, we're in the playoffs. That's good enough for me.
