what the rest of the schedule looks like

[skinsdad62]

the 49ers game could be key , it could be 2-2 in the others if we beat the 49ers we could have 7 wins enough to bastard ourselves into the playoffs and get to face the bucs at home

the only way i see us being a legit playoff team is if we beat a team with a winning record and get to 8 or 9 wins

the boys played the steelers tough maybe we can too but it will take more then another 6 yds per att out of CDC to do it . same with niners and hawks . we need 2 out of 3 plus sweeping the eagles and panthers

I feel like we match up well with Big Ben. He will be under siege. Hopefully force him into a few TO.

Ben is so underrated. I did not see the entire stat but he beat Rodgers to 50,000 yards in less attempts. Dungee said I would never have guessed it.

I think the Steeler D shuts down our WTF team. Hope I am wrong but don't think so.

I’m sure it won’t surprise you you that I think we could surprise in this game. Hee! At minimum be competitive...

Waiting for the gametime line and I’ll bet ya we meet it

 

[skinsdad62]

I am hopeful for competitive , dreaming about a win , but expect a manhandling .

We have to beat the Steelers , Seatle , or the 49ers for me to think we are legit as a playoff team

And beating the panthers or the eagles. Aren’t givens

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Feel like the Eagles at the end of the season is a very winnable game...have to see where momentum and injuries land us when we get there.

Of the others I think we’ve got the better shot with Seattle and Panthers to eke our a possible win. Niners D is a tough ask but never know with all their injuries. They are getting healthier.

 

[skinz2winz]

Let's just start with the Steelers and apply big time pressure on Ben, lets see how he handles it. As we all know, he is not running.

 

[dcrising]

we are also getting the steelers on a very short week for them. an advantage for sure.

 

[tomcat1]

Don't sleep on the Panthers. Even though their record is not very good they play hard for a very good head coach and they came within a whisker of beating the Chiefs in Kansas City.

My thoughts are...our squad is gonna play extra hard to get a win for RR against the team that fired him.

Unless they come away with several injuries, I'm not so sure. Playing Tuesday, then getting right back on the bike Sunday may prove to be an advantage compared to our 11 days off. (Rust) and several 3 & outs to start the game in our foreseeable future.

i guess we will find out.

It is a short week for Pittsburgh, but not as short as playing on Sunday and then playing on Thursday.

Nope does not surprise me and as Tomcat said I like your optimism. Often undefeated teams lose to someone you wouldn't suspect. We fit that bill.

Odds are on Pittsburgh, but they still have to play the game. You could see DH this game, Alex can't escape their pass rush.

Gonna have to release extra fast. I don’t want him injured. Ai ya yi

Yep and I think the Steelers will try to take away the run and zone up the D with emphasis on RBs slipping out into the flat. Would love to see the hesitation wheel route that McKissic has been running ... he has been wide open twice that I know of and not one completion on it.

I agree with you on that but I see a lot of Panthers football in the area I live in and they don't quit. Obviously I hope we will win that game but if we do we are going to have to bring it.

Our best chance going into this game is that the Steelers take us lightly which sometimes happens to heavy favorites in all sports.

We don't want to be behind by two scores in the second half against the Steelers because they can literally run over half a quarter off the clock moving the chains with their running game and they have done this for many years against some good defenses.

Looks like it’s Monday 5 pm
