You assume the transitive property* for football, which is NEVER correct. You also say the Steelers are #1 in football, despite having a loss. If the Pats are worse than the teams that beat them, why aren't the Steelers worse than the teams they have lost against?
Oh... right. Because they can't exist.
*Transitive Property: if Y > Z and X > Y, then X > Z.
I corrected my original post thanks but I still defend my overall point. They're all about the same, but still a notch ahead of us IMO. We just lost Adalius Thomas & we have an undrafted rookie running the ball. Do you honestly believe they can go all the way as presently constituted?

How do you figure? We may not even be the best in our division. The Miami Dolphins embarrassed us not too long ago. They've gone on to prove they belong in this discussion IMO.
The Titans are clearly #1, Steelers #2. Yet Pitt just lost to the Colts who also beat us last week. So that's 4 teams better than us. Did we forget about the Chargers beatdown?
While yes Matt Cassel is improving, I'm no more confident in our chances come January than I was 2 weeks ago. Sorry to be a Debby Downer, but the reality is we still have an uphill battle.
How is Pittsburgh clearly 2 when they are 6-3 like us? They lost to the Colts at home, we lost in their house, only because of a stupid penalty.
If you elimnate us from being 2nd best because 3 teams beat us, then everyone else gets eliminated too.
After the Titans, I think there's a whole host of teams that would play each other pretty even, but there's some teams that match up better against us than others.
Dumb question - Right now the Steelers are far and away the 2nd best team in the conference
Just because they lost sunday does not force them down any pegs - Even the Colts are moving back up the ladder,Don't be stupid enough to count them out,they may not win easily but FIND ways to beat 2 playoff contenders the past 2 weeks and pulled out wins along the way to stay very much alive
The Patriots losing top players every week on IR hardly makes them the #2 best team,I would put NE at about 4th or 5th best right now and only a hairline above Miami - Get real

You're better than that mod, take your L like a man and eat it, you've lost 4 out of the last 5 to us
Oh, and Colts are the second beat team in the AFC, beat divsion leaders Baltimore, Steelers, and Patriots, and took the undefeated Titans down to the last few minutes of the game

ill have to believe that BB can take care of a rookie QB quite easily....even one playing as good as flacco
