You know what, Tour? If you would have told me before the season started that we'd have to beat Pittsburgh at our house at the final game to be in the playoffs...I would have said, "Hell freaking yeah!"
It's a terrible match up for us, we're up against it, and we're in uncharted territory, but sooner or later we've got to become a post season team. We get two games at the end of the effing year and we've got to win ONE.

A quick perusal of the stats Tour. The Steelers had 20 count 'em 20 rushing yards against the Colts. We may not be able to beat them- but with that pathetic running game the Steelers are one and done in the playoffs...

Well....it is possible that that one they may have to play could be The Browns!!

Tomlin’s call on who plays and who doesn’t is the biggest report this week.
Of course our COVID list too
What are they playing for??? Home field over Buffalo if they make second round.
The Steelers are pretty beat and haven’t had a bye week since Week 4.
They had their “get right” game today. Do they want to press their Health against a rival fighting for their playoff life?

We can’t cover and our defensive coordinator doesn’t believe in blitzes. Any chance we have in January will be ground and pound score TDs over FGs and limit opposition possessions.

I don't see them letting up. I would think they would want to put the nail in our coffin if they could. As much as people may deny it....this is still THE rivalry of the AFCN.

No it is not.
You saying it over and over doesn't make it so.
The Steelers and Ravens are THE rivalry of the AFC North. In fact, it's probably the best rivalry in the entire NFL.
The Steelers vs Browns rivalry is akin to the bully kicking sand in the face of the 95lb weakling on the beach.

Maybe- they seemingly understand the rivalry better.
It is has been a long tough year mentally and physically a bye week could help them this next stretch too.
And I could see them being comfortable with potentially playing us again 3 vs. 6 game. Sitting guys...giving us a vanilla look and then bringing out the heavy artillery to beat us in Pitt the following week.
one sports book has assumed it already and we are -7.5 favorites

What do you mean the Steeler's understand it better? Having a "better understanding" means they have had the better Owners/ GMs/coaches/QBs players. I am not sure that is better "understanding"....it is better competence however. I guess you can surmise that our litany of crappy coaches and crappy GMs and crappy QBs didn't understand the rivalry.....or you can say they just sucked at football in every aspect of the game...not just rivalry comprehension.

Again, not sure where you are coming. Steelers will NOT be in for any bye week. Only one team gets a bye before the playoffs, and that is already clinched by the Chiefs.
And I could see them being comfortable with potentially playing us again 3 vs. 6 game. Sitting guys...giving us a vanilla look and then bringing out the heavy artillery to beat us in Pitt the following week.Well....they could, I guess....if they had such a thing.
But I still do not see them holding back, for their own reasons.

I don't think so. You see that last game, those boys came to PLAY. I never get the sense the Browns get that pumped to play the Steelers. I don't think they were even pumped for today's game against the Jets. It's almost like they forgot what was on the line.

I am talking historically.....like the past 25 years. While the Bengals had a few decent years.....for the most part this has been a two team division in terms of competitiveness. Fair to say?

sounds likely guys will sit.
the “bye week” would be week 17 for guys that sit.

Well, yes. I still think that is gamesmanship and will only believe it when I see it . Steelers CAN still get the #2 seed and what comes with that: 2 home playoff games.
That is...unless the league goes into the Bubble like I suggested.

What is home field this year? The Bills can’t even have fans at their stadium. Pitt to Buffalo short bus ride
If I had to guess I think Ben plays a quarter maybe. Maybe the WRs follow that plan. Watt sits- he goes down they are done.
Probably Heyward/Tuitt vets in the trenches.
Maybe guys that have nagging injuries this year.
I would probably give the Oline a little more burn and try to fix the run game
Anyone know what Tomlin has done in the past?

Did you see the Green Bay game tonight? THAT was a home field advantage.
Like I said in my Bubble thread, I would like to see no one have a home field in the first two rounds......but I doubt the league is going to go with that.

I am guessing that their starters will stay in the game as long as it is competitive. I would like to see them all go out after we get up on them like we got up on the Cowboys and Titans.....

He's rested players.
Case in point was 2017 when in Week 16 Ben and Bell played vs. HOU, but both sat Week 17 vs. their bitter, bitter rivals, The Cleveland Browns.

Yeah the Steelers and the Ravens. The 0-16, 1-15 Browns were penciled in as a W. Maybe the current players heard from their dad or grandpa about the big rivalry with the Browns. Outside of the Kosar years, it's been lopsided. Roethlisberger has more wins in First Energy than any Cleveland qb since 1999.

Thank you for looking that up...
I think there is still remnants of the rivalry. I think Ben certainly enjoys beating us. I think they (Tomlin, Front Office) prefer us being down and making a playoff spot doesn’t fall in line with that...but I think they actually want to play us more this year than say the Ravens.I think they are worried too if Mason starts there is jawing, maybe suspension type altercations and you can’t have that the week before the playoffs. In that case, I’d probably play Hobbs instead of Mason.
