What? What if a Steelers win meant that the 'Boys made the playoffs? Would your head explode?

Pretty much it would explode, but that isn't the situation here. he's asing about the mental makeup of a team coming off a win vs a loss. the whole premise is ridiculous.

Like I said-I know this sounds like an awkward question, but I am still contemplating on who I should root for, b/c if they win, then MAYBE they won't have this big sense of urgency going into next weekend?

What do you guys think?
I think you believe your team is inferior to the Steelers, and are hoping for something to happen so that the best team doesn't win and your team does. Grow a pair and just believe your team can beat the Steelers, and stop placing your hope in stats like your opponent doesn't do well after loses to team with an R in them on rainy afternoon games in odd numbered weeks.

The Steelers have played the toughest schedule I have EVER seen on paper - is there a great team that DIDN'T make it onto their schedule?
When you play the Ravens twice a year, you get used to getting banged up for upcoming weeks. Personally, I think Dallas has it coming and I'd love to see Pittsburgh wipe that silly grin off Romo's face.

Granted, but it did not merit your disgusting reply.
