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.

    A lot better than I predicted but with Canada gone they could make a run at the division title. 11, possibly 12 games in the win column.

    The Steelers COULD beat any of the remaining teams on their schedule but they will lose one or two of them.

    I’d say 11-6 with a Wild Card spot.

    10-7 realistically. I think we probably drop the Ravens and Colts games and potentially the Seahawks/Patriots.

    I said 11-6 in January when I saw that schedule and I still firmly believe in 11-6. 12-5 would surprise me, 13-4 is just not being realistic (but if it happens I’d obviously be stoked).

    12-5 seems likely. I hear a lot of people saying the patriots possibly a trap game, however, this isn’t a typical year for the belichek patriots. I honestly think he is trying to lose for the number 1 overall pick. Think the cards are dumping as well. Realistically, we may not have a game important to both teams until week 18. The next 2 teams have already been eliminated. The colts maybe being a possible as well, but if they drop a game in the next 2, and depending on what happens elsewhere, they may be basically done for the season. The bungles are done. The seahawks may likely be done by then as well. Leaves just the ravens and I think we playbthem for the division week 18.

    I think 12-5 is a decent and ballsy pick. 13-4 is almost impossible you never know

    Well I’m thinking realistically they go into the Ravens game at 10-6, with wins against ARZ, NE, and Cincy, the two losses coming on the road at Indy (because their D just utterly balls out) and Seattle (because well, we like the west coast as much as the Chargers like the east coast). And I think Baltimore comes into the game with the same record because of games against Jax, San Fran and Miami they could be rolling into week 18 on a 3 game slide turning the game into a playoff seeding game with 3/4 and 5/6 being the spots up for grabs.

    I feel like I need to see what the offense looks like before I can honestly answer this question. But right now I’d say 10-7. I also feel like it could be 9-8 with a loss to Cincy.

    AZ - W NE - W IND - L CIN -W SEA - L BAL - L
