can some1 please explain to me why pittsburgh are still favs

they have already lost once to the ravens aand still have to go to baltimore.i they lose as i expect then baltimore would also win a tiebreaker

the steelers have done a gr8 job of patchin holes down the years but this year it will be too much for them

im a longtime steeler fan and watch them weekly btw.on the d-line the best player is out for the year and the secondary is still a weakness when the offense runs the spread

however the state of the oline is the nail in the coffin.both starting tackles are now out for the season.unfortunately one of bens weaknesses is not making quick reads which is essential to take the pressure off

i hope im wrong but i cant see it

im sorry pal,i wish i could share your enthusiasm but im finding it increasingly difficult.

the pats have the blueprint for beatin pittsburgh and i expect the rest of the nfl to try and imitate it.

blitz the **** out of them and go to a spread offence

our dline looked a lot weaker at the point of attack yesterday and the running game becomes a viable option once again

on offence our most effective plays are not by design but when ben adlibs

however the overiding theme is that both our lines arent up to the job

fingers crossed im wrong

I'm with the Ravens for the big gig and their chances become much easier if winning the North.
6-3 having won some tough road games, their 3 combined losses total 13 points, 4 home field games to go, it'll go to the wire with the Steelers I think

with a full strength d-line i would be on the steelers strongly.pittsburgh can normally take away the opps rungame and go from there.however tommorow they will have 2 mix it up more.dick lebeau has had the luxury of such good personel in recent times he hasnt had to vary his gameplan.when he does as per last week he has been found wanting.

i still favour pitt but only 60/40
