Ben hasnt been hot going into this years playoffs. He was on fire in the beg of the year towards the middle. Hes cooled off lately though. Alot probably has to do with that ankle. Hey they had there chance to take the division against the 49ers and failed to capitalize to get healthy. I wouldnt be suprised if we made a run to the superbowl, but I also wouldnt be suprised if we had an early exit. Via Bronco's
if...and it's a big IF...our offense can score some points...like 24+ we could get to the super bowl again. our defense is good enough to hold teams out of the end zone...problem is BA is equally as good at holding our team out of the end zone.
"Today, I'm officially retiring a Pittsburgh Steeler. And as much as I will miss football, my teammates, coaches and everything about the game, I don't want to play it in any other uniform. The black and gold runs deep in me, and I will remain a Steeler for life."--Hines Ward
And I'm bashed about having no faith... It was either get 1st or get healthy and personally I think a healthy 5th seed would have been better. 2 weeks of rest > 1 and it's not like the Steelers are going to get more calls at home as we saw this year. Steelers play the best underdogs on the road.
But, they got neither and now we have to suffer.
Amen RaleighSteel re Bruce Arians!!! Only positive of Steelers possibly coming up short this year will be the long-awaited firing of BA.

About the other ankle injury.... How has Pouncey been this week, anyone hear?
Have Terrible Towel, Will Travel.
Going into Super Bowl XLV, the Packers had 16 players on injured reserve. The will to win will be more of a determining factor than just healthy players in the Steelers road to another title this year. If Tomlin and his coaching staff are smart, they will view the Broncos game as a tune up to the much tougher Pats and Ravens. I think the wildcard gives the Steelers an advantage going into the next round. The bye teams may come out flat. The Steelers need to jump on that.
