NFL wants Stealers in SB 50

[juck]

Ratings. Ratings. Ratings. The AFC is weak. Even NE is throwing games so they dont have to play them. NE threw the ball almost not at all. Get ready for another Stealer love fest.

I would think the NFL would want at least 1 traditional power with a big fan base, ideally for them would be GB vs Pitt

 

[juck]

It will be Stealers. The AFC is trash. They get AJ Mccaron next weekend. Win. Then they get Denver in Denver. Denver is not that good. Only hope is Chiefs. I hope Chiefs go to the SB.

Steelers v. Cardinals I think will be the Super Bowl

 

[Hoofbite]

Not sure this makes sense but I'll go with it.

 

[Staubacher]

Denver / Carolina

The way Seattle looked today makes it appear highly possible that they make a 3rd straight superbowl appearance. Maybe it's a Pitt vs Sea superbowl rematch.

 

[Everson24]

It's going to be the Steelers vs the weakest NFC team in the Super Bowl. Probably Washington or a banged up Vikings team. Just like 2008 when a 9-7 Cardinals team beat the better NFC teams only to lose in the Super Bowl.

All the Steelers have to do is beat AJ McCarron, Brock Oswieler or an old and injured Peyton Manning and then probaby Alex Smith or Brian Hoyer to get to another Super Bowl. When have we ever had it so easy?

Can this nightmare of a season end already?

Thanks for nothing New York Jets!

I think the Cards beat the Pats in the SB

This year should've been a cake walk for Dallas.

The East stinks...............

A lot more people seem to care about the Steelers success/failure than I do.

I know the Cowboys / Steelers had an intense rivalry 40 years or so ago, however, I just don't care about them any more.

I could care less if they win/lose a Superbowl vs any of the other AFC teams.

Am I the only one who feels this way?

The Patriots have lost 4 of their last 6 and are so banged up I really believe that they are one and done this year. This weekend was not kind to them. They did not want to face KC in the divisional round. They can rush the passer and have a good secondary. Also,every year the the Steelers have gone to the Super Bowl they have been lucky to avoid NE. It should happen again this year.

New England's offensive line is awful. Brady is taking a beating. Denver is infinitely beatable. Dalton is going to try to go, but we'll see. Houston is a joke, and the Kansas City balloon is about to pop.

Yep, I can see the Steelers getting there.

In fact, I think we could see an all wild-card Super Bowl because Seattle looks unstoppable right now.

All good points. I hope you're right because I actually dislike the Pats (I lived in NE for a few years). I;d love to see Denver get there just because of DWare.

My only hope is that the NFL gets on the "One More Super Bowl for Peyton Manning" campaign like they did for Ray Lewis and Jerome Bettis. That would be the only way they may get a call against the Steelers.

 

[jazzcat22]

Well, the Steelers always has the refs and Goodell on their sides. I can see them steering another feel good, look what we did type SB.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Steelers D is awful. No way they win with it. They were lucky against Denver. They wont beat them at Mile High. I think KC loses to Zona in a great game.

 

[TrailBlazer]

Steelers aren't that good.

Didn't the Steelers lose to Ryan Mallet and the Ravens last week? Not saying they won't go to the SB, but they gotta beat 3 teams before they do.

I live in Pittsburgh and 3 weeks ago this was a nightmarish prospect to consider, and while I was greatly disappointed in the pathetic Jets performance yesterday, The Steelers arent playing that well.

Consider: They were absolutely unhinged and dismantled by the very Brock Osweiler mentioned earlier in this thread. They allowed 27 points to him in 1 half. This after Brock only managed 12 for an entire game against the Raiders defense.

The Steelers then lost to the 5 win Ravens.

Yesterday, they led the more pathetic then the 2015 Cowboys, Cleveland Browns 17-12 with 10 minutes left. This despite the pathetic Browns starting essentially their 3rd string qb and 2 safeties at cotner yesterday. In fact, the Browns turned it over twice inside their own 20 and that led to the Steelers last 11 points.

Factor in that while Big Dumb has thrown for a boatload of yards this year when healthy, he also has 16 picks. The Steelers also employ the league's 31st ranked secondary. So while I'm certainly depressed that these jerks made the playoffs, I'm hopeful someone beats their ***. As usual, F the Steelers.
