It's hard being afraid of the Steelers, when Brady has had their number for so long. Plus, they've played very inconsistently all season, and their record on the road isn't all that impressive.
Funny that you didn't have anything to say about the Chiefs. They're probably the most balanced team in the AFC besides us. They have a good special teams unit, and their defense is very solid and great at producing turnovers (I think they currently lead the League in turnover differential) and their offense (while not dynamic as Pittsburgh) is underrated.
I know Alex Smith doesn't get a lot of respect in these corners, but the Pats have been beaten by lesser QBs in big games like Mark Sanchez. While his passing is limited, he's very efficient and can make plays with his feet.
The biggest thing holding the Chiefs back...is Andy Reid. His play-calling is very conservative, his clock-management is poor, and he doesn't have a strong record playing us.
I think Kansas City will have a really hard time stopping the run against us
