Will we have 2 "perfect" records in one season?

[tlance]

You guys are forgetting to mention the fact that the Steelers may very well have their seed locked up before week 16... Meaning they have nothing to play for against the Colts or Browns and would likely play Mason Rudolph at QB.

The coaches & players have all said the same thing... They are not chasing a perfect season, rather chasing the Lombardi.

That said... I have them at 14-2 or 15-1 to close out the season. BAL, BUF, & IND are the games that will be tough outs even with the starters playing.

Unlikely.

The Chiefs aren’t going away.

Chiefs have a tougher schedule it seems.

Chiefs have a tougher schedule it seems.

and a better team

one bye this year makes the top seed that much more a big deal

Frank Gore said he ain’t retiring on a 0-16 season. So it appears he’s going to play again next year.

Honestly, I don't blame him.

 

[We Are Decent]

Thanksgiving will be a great game to watch
Washington will be an easy win (hopefully)
Bills will be the toughest game, might be a 50/50, maybe 60/40 favoring the Bills due to being an away game+nonstop playing from the Steelers
Bengals couldn't beat the Steelers if the Steelers only had Sportshoopla users playing
The Steelers own the Colts, though this might be tougher than usual Colts matchups, I wouldn't be surprised if the Steelers still won
Browns might beat us, but we'll have our backups in, so they can celebrate on their super bowl victory there

first, a rose for miss Moxie...

Jets definitely have a big shot at o-16. Steelers? don't get me wrong, i don't dislike them, but an undefeated season is super tough to pull off, which is why it's only been done twice. Have a great shot at #1 seed, though...

I don't think the '72 Dolphins have a ton to worry about
I mean, it would be phenomenal, but let's keep it real. This week is going to be tough, then add the rest of the 7-3 teams we'll have to face? Dios mio! Better make sure the liquor cabinet is stocked!

Steelers (10-0)
Ravens (6-4)
Denzels (3-7)
@Bills (7-3)
@ Bengals (2-7-1)
Colts (7-3)
@Browns (7-3)

Jets (0-10)
Dolphins (6-4)
Raiders (6-4)
@Seahawks (7-3)
@Rams (6-3)
Browns (7-3)
@Patriots (4-6)

That WEEK 17 PIT @ CLE matchup could be huge.

I could see the Ravens beating the Steelers and very possibly the Colts.

Don't forget that the Steelers had their "bye week" super early because of the stupid ass Titans. These guys have GOT to be tired AF. I can see myself breaking shit at my SIL's on Turkey Day because of the ravens

they did......but I dont see that or hear any of that......now at least. Kudos to tomlin and staff, as always

 

[SteelersPride]

Idk....just seems like a good bet to me. Ravens Bill's colts and browns all 7-3 atm. 2 of those 4. Like mentioned above if they lock early they will pump the brakes for sure.

i dont disagree, was jsut curious if you had a hunch

I see the Steelers losing probably 2 games.
Losing one somewhere during the season & then sitting starters in the final game. (to avoid injury)

Jets have a good chance to go perfect.

They're gonna lose........like i said they still play bills, colts, ravens, browns......they're gonna drop one or two or three

yep

Debatable ........ Let not pretend the chiefs have not had some less than stellar games as well. They're the defending champs, we'll defer to them. But definitively the teams with the two best records. The best point differentials(steelers lead). Both have top 5 offenses in PPG. Steelers #1 d, Chiefs are #7 in ppg allowed........these are both really really good teams

 

[tabascojet]

ill go bills and browns....

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

I could see the Ravens beating the Steelers and very possibly the Colts.

I honestly don't see the Ravens winning Thursday. Nothing creative on offense and 2 RBs out for the game. Ravens are in a bit of a freefall right now. Might very well miss the playoffs.

Now they've got the 'vid running through the locker room, so maybe that will bode well for the Steelers.

I don't see Washington as being an "easy" win. They are playing much much better as of late.

 

[flyerhawk]

I would be surprised if the Steelers go 16-0. Their schedule so far has been pretty soft. Titans are really their only good win. Colts and Bills will both be tough games.

 

[PhilSimms11]

Steelers (11-0)
Denzels (4-7)
@Bills (8-3)
@ Bengals (2-8-1)
Colts (7-4)
@Browns (8-3)

Jets (0-11)
Raiders (6-5)
@Seahawks (8-3)
@Rams (7-4)
Browns (8-3)
@Patriots (5-6)

We still have 2 perfect seasons going. Isn't it exciting?

 

[CaptainStubing]

I hope the Steelers and chiefs meet in the AFCCG. I think that would be an incredible game

I don't.

Steelers are undefeated. And they still aren't a top 5 team in the league IMO. Especially now that their front 7 was hit with the major injuries.

Their offense is bad. Not average. Bad. Their defense is really good. But it would have to be great not really good to beat some of the better teams in this league come playoff time.

Dupree is a HUGE loss for that defense. I already have the Chiefs as the AFC's best but this would even strengthen that argument if Dupree is out the rest of the season.

 

[Carnzo]

No perfection this year.
For the Men of Steel they will drop one on their own from exhaustion or bench / rest players before the playoffs.
For the Jets I see them putting together one game to say Fuck The Patriots and make them look like shit.
A pride thing at that point.

they are 6th in scoring who knew that was bad?
