They have played 3 bad football teams, lost 2 and probably should have lost in Miami but the Dolphins were even less disciplined.

Buffalo likely beats them by 3 TD and I’m not sure Carolina is a W either. 1-4 very possible.

Just looked at the schedule and I have them for 3 likely wins remaining:

Saints, Jets (split), Titans.

Beyond that, I don’t see it.
This team will make the playoffs.
 
Hendo is not a RB good for between the Tackles.
I expected a faster start especially with his preseason. Hoping he can carve out a James white type career for us.
 
Remember when I told you in the offseason that Diggs was toast?

Was I right?
Remember when we told you last year that the Bills defense was like a crocheted prophylactic?
 
I think Pop has sucked but it wasn’t a gimme conversion like it’s being made out to be IMO. He stepped back because he thought they were going to stuff him and thus tried to make a move.
Pop took a step back because that's where the ball was thrown. High and behind him. It was bad ball placement as much as anything.
 
This team will make the playoffs.
Really I had them off to a Fast Start...2-1 I would feel optimistic: now not so much. I don't think you had them losing these Two games especially @ Home.
 
Of all the things to be angry about I don’t think the defense should be near the top.
The Stealers have given up 30 points a game. They held the Patriots to 14. The turnovers were inexcusable. The second Stevenson fumble was like a flashback from last year.
 
Frustrating game because the Pats completely outplayed them and the D was actually pretty ****ing good.

But there's a reason turnovers are the stat most correlated with wins and losses. Horrific...

Rham is a microcosm of this team in a nutshell at the moment. Nice big plays here and there, but catastrophic moments that cost you the game.

If they can clean this up, this is a team that can deal some damage, compete for a playoff spot and such....****, it's frustrating in the meantime.

Also, my preseason W-L predictions are exactly inverted at this point.

The game in New Orleans in early October is the pivot. Lose that...and the goose is cooked.

Yes, it could happen. But it shouldn't.
 
Could have a truly solid OL but with Campbell at LG and Wilson at center. So a true franchise LT in the draft. Just sayin.
Beat on a stunt. His third game dude...

Steelers defense sucks. Pats should’ve had 35 offensive points today. Just carelessness and stupidity prevented it.
