i am sure 99% of pats fans would love to see this happen. Steelers aren't going to be good next year. It will be between cincy and balt for division winner
This franchise did a remarkable job of maintaining consistent excellence. I wonder what has changed? There may be something here to be learned by other franchises that have a long track record of excellence. I'm curious.
Can Cleveland just make the playoffs already?!

The Steelers defense had a great 8 year run, but it's time they experience the sudden crumble the 2005/2008 Pats had to deal with. Their secondary may of been #1 last year, but it's on the brink of collapsing with their #1 CB leaving in FA, both safeties running out of gas, and Taylor unable to cover 1 on 1 anymore.

is that you celebrating the Steelers' woes in that gif?
Short version is that the Steelers have not been able to build a pipeline of NFL competent talent to replace their elite playmakers while also growing younger elite playmakers at other positions.
The short story is that the Steelers had an elite core group that has both gotten old AND injured AND not been displaced by a similiar number of elite but still younger and cheaper players
If TP is healthy this year and DeCastro is fully recovered from his injury, they'll be right back in the playoffs.
if they are lucky enough to snag a wildcard spot
