Only hope of a playoff win is playing at Houston/Should we rest if Broncos and Chargers lose?

[rooneytunes]

Baltimore or Buffalo either will hang at least 30 on our soft overrated Defense. That will extend that NHALS streak of giving up 30 or something points in consecutive playoff games. That on top of offensive mistakes and pathetic play calling will not be enough to win at either of those places.

Only hope is get as healthy as we can and beat Houston like 15-13

Editing the thread title to add this. If somehow Chargers lose at Patriots and Broncos lose at Bengals, should we rest last week? We would be guaranteed at least the 5 seed even with a loss to Cincinnati. Treat it as a bye? No way with DTR at qb will Browns win at Baltimore. Baltimore is winning the division

[Orangesteel]

I agree at this point I would posture to get to play in Houston for Wildcard round

Bus crash

IF

We get 11.5 points

I'd rather get boat raced by Bills or Ratbirds as that will HOPEFULLY/FINALLY get Jibba Jabba out of here. 6 straight PO butt whooping's may finally get that old drunk Rooney out of his stoper.

Steelers have a post-Thanksgiving losing streak of at least 3 games for the 5th time over the past 7 seasons.

It doesn’t matter. We will lose to Houston too…this team just drinks too much fucking elf cum! @Jizz Mop They all start sucking down Galikers, Sani-Dairy, Vale Wood Farms and Turkey Hill egg nog and start slowing down! They move like raw eggs through a coffee filter, after Thanksgiving!

Fucking elf cum!

[anpsteel]

They can’t beat the Texans either

That’s a scheme loss, and Tomlin has shown no ability or willingness to make the appropriate changes

[rooneytunes]

Would winning the "early Saturday Houston hosts a playoff game because their division sucks" game thrown on Amazon Prime count as winning a playoff game?

I guess for our desperate ass it would lol

[Steelperch]

Houston coaching staff will coach circles around the Steelers and win by two scores. Demeco Ryans and Bobby Slowick absolutely will shit on Mike Tomlin.

Far from a lock. They’d better root hard for chargers to lose.

[Gonzo]

if the bengals beat the doncos … i think chances are high steelers lose to bengals next week … so 10-7 and i believe that makes them 5 or 6 seed depending on chargers last two

[Gonzo]

6 seed gets them bills or rats … so they need the 5

[rooneytunes]

If Bengals beat Broncos Saturday, that helps the Bengals yes but KC will be resting starters last week of season and Bengals need to win against us as well and also as well have KC win that game which may not be likely with them using backups.

North Division is done. We are not getting that. Best hope for 5 seed is we somehow win against Cincinnati but that will hard with the current product.

SBI is kind of all over the place. For this weekend I guess it's Broncos and Chargers lose. If Bengals loses to Broncos then they will not have much to play for last week so I guess that helps us out too

The best realistic outcome going forward is for blowout losses to the Bengals and whoever we play on Wildcard Weekend, and for Russ to look like dog shit so hopefully we don't re-sign him.

Praying the Bengals drop 40 on us while continuing to watch Najee get handoffs on 2nd and 9.

The only realistic way out of purgatory is for Tomlin to be embarrassed enough that he decides to retire, or Art Jr. finally gets fed up and pressures for Tomlin to move on. A sixth straight playoff blowout and having no answer at QB going forward could be the right mix for this to happen.

Some on here thought I was insane for rooting for it to blow up this year, but GD we'd been better off if it had happened. I hope you all enjoyed all the empty calorie wins against a one legged Herbert, an aging QB in his first start back from an achilles injury who looked like a statue, a rookie in his second career start with his head swimming, and the layups against organizations who were hoping to tank along with Boswell saving the day time and time again. Oh yeah, and I hope you all enjoyed the 250+ more carries from Najee Harris, who hopefully you all can finally admit you all were f'n wrong about. We're trying so hard to be a dominant rushing offense and our starting RB f'n blows and should've been replaced years ago.

And speaking of calories, I'm going to be burning quite a few this offseason with all the GD victory laps I'm going to be taking on this board.
