Steelers better not sniff the Super Bowl. But lucking out by starting their season with the Browns, getting Minny at HOME without their starting QB, and now enjoying an away game vs the lowly Bears will do wonders for their psyche.
They should be no worse than 14-2 with their schedule. It technically is a first place schedule but they play in the pathetic AFC North then the get the ultra pathetic AFC South division plus they travel the fewest miles of any team by far this season.
Their team is as healthy as it gets right now and they added a good CB in Joe Haden who will probably prosper now that the Browns released him. And to top it all off, they get the best officiating in the NFL. In this area, we are the polar opposites of them.
Yes, I can definitely see the Steelers winning the Super Bowl. It seems all their main competition in the AFC are suffering huge injuries to some of their best players. Everything seems to be falling in place for them to hoist another Lombardi.
