FREAKofSTEEL08 said:For one they Beat your asses earlier this year. What , your 2 win Team should be ranked higher than them ? And according to the Experts , Pittsburgh Lost to KC and Oakland Much more than Oakland and KC WON those games. The experts have spoken, for what thats worth. Aint getting Pittsburgh to the Dance so who freaking cares anyway.. Yea, I will agree that the Steelers LOST all three games....by not being as good or playing as good as those other teams. Here's the deal: In 2005, the Steelers overall record gave them only a 6th place finish in the AFC, meaning of course that they may have been the 11th or 12th best team in the league. But, they squeaked into the playoffs and got hot. No power ranking would have ever had them as the best team in the league. By all logical rights they should have been ousted in the first or second round. But like I said, they got hot., and won. The same is true in reverse here: By their overall record, they are not in the bottom feeders of the AFC, but by recent performance, they indeed are. Just as they got hot and pulled out an unexpected win then, here they got cold. If you want to claim they were #1 that year because you say they proved it on the field, this year then you have to accept that they are #32 (or near there) because they have proved it on the field. I mean, when you lose to the worst 3 dregs, that means you are the worst dreg of all. The Browns, Chiefs, and Raiders have the 3 worst records in the AFC. Steelers lost to all of them. What does that make them? Maybe it is a good thing they met the Lions early on when they were playing better. I mean, what are you gonna do against good teams like the Packers, Dolphins etc. But, if it is any consolation to you, here's hoping you beat the Ravens and knock them out of the playoffs as well.
