We're on to Pittsburgh

[AtomicDawg]

I'm not sure but I'll assume that the Steelers will not score only FGs next week, but the Patriots won't have three turnovers either. That's gonna be the difference.

 

[Deus Irae]

Two big winning margins on Saturday
Two "last minute" wins on Sunday

Good stuff, and I'm glad the Patriots are facing the Steelers rather than the Chiefs. May BB&Co. have a great week of practice.

Oh, yeah.......


Go Falcons!

Big ben has been pretty mediocre on the road this season. And hasnt exactly been lights out this postseason. If we get to the superbowl we are facing better offenses in falcons or green bay. So this should be a good test

 

[ScottishPatriots]

Will the line be over or under 6.5?

It's NE -5.5

 

[Haterproof]

Their defense played better than I thought. Still don't think they are all that especially in the secondary. Pats should win fairly comfortably if they bring their A game.

True but KC's offense is really not that good! They're pretty one dimensional TBH

 

[MoreBellhorn]

Hey, Collinsworth just gave the Pats defense credit! "Most underrated defense in the entire league, they have been sensational."

I was waiting on him to say they've only beaten tomato cans, but he didn't! Someone must've messed up the teleprompter.

You got him and Felger mixed up. "Easiest strength of schedule in the league!!!!!" *insert stroking of his mic here*

I think this is the game we've all been waiting for. Steelers and Patriots. We will be favored. Make no mistake though: This isn't the Texans offense.

Pittsburgh's road offense has been much closer to the Texans offense than it has been to Pittsburgh's home offense.

 

[AtomicDawg]

That kind of protection and NO TDs speaks volumes....

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

Now the playoffs officially begin! Next week will be tough. I will favor the pats but I'm not gonna act like the steelers don't have a legit shot.

This defense of theirs is a lot better than I thought. Great pass rush. Should be a very good game.

seemed like most of their pressure came when they rushed more than 4......the pass rush that gives brady problems are of the non-blitz, up the middle pressure (or Denver, but this ain't Denver)

 

[SVN]

Brady generally has no problem woth that defense. Just need to clean up the errors from last week

That is an old narrative. They actually played good defense vs us during the regular season. Forced us to run blount and for the middle stretches of the game pats did nothing. It took gronk on the seam route to blow it open.

 

[Danger Zone]

STEELERS SCORE ONLY 18 POINTS AGAINST THE CHIEFS. WILL THIS BE A WAKE UP CALL FOR THEM?!

Pats put up 40 that game if not for numerous key drops and turnovers.

 

[SVN]

Its going to take more than 18 points to beat us next week. Probably at least 27.

You can forget about this week , just like the pats game. Every game is different.

nor is it the Texans D

 

[SVN]

Pittsburghs offense isn't as good on the road, Ben had 77 QB rating on the road this year and like 107 at home.

Bell worries me the most.

 

[Soul_Survivor88]

Kudos to the Chiefs redzone defense... they got let down bad by Alex Smith, Andy Reid, and the offense

"Mike, if this comes down to field goals we saw what Boswell did, and we know Gostkowski..."

 

[SVN]

Good stuff, and I'm glad the Patriots are facing the Steelers rather than the Chiefs. May BB&Co. have a great week of practice.

Even after how KC played today esp on offense ?
