I’d love to say the offense will improve from here on out and we could win out and go 13-4 but that’s not very realistic. Could happen. Probably won’t. So that being said, will it be 12-5 or 11-6. Obviously the ravens will be a nailbiter and will probably decide who wins the North. One game that worries me is the patriots. Say what you want about Belicheck, post Brady, but one thing that man knows how to do is defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers. Either way, I think we have exceeded expectations from a lot of non steelers fans, considering all I heard was we will be in the basement of the AFC North will be either 9-8 or 8-9.
I predicted 10-7 before the season started, so I’ll stick with that. All they have to do is finish 3-3 in their final six games to match my prediction, so it seems safe to me. In fact, the only way I can see the Steelers finishing worse than 10-7 is if the injury bug starts to bite harder. They’ve managed to endure their injuries pretty well so far, but I don’t think they can suffer too many more before it starts to negatively impact the performance of the team.
