this is why everyone hates steeler fans. they bare not a contender for their own division, let alone the afc or the superbowl. ever since ed hokley left the team, their success has evaporated
_______________________________
i agree steelers fan blow, however their team looks damn good so far on defense, once they get their marginally better than 2nd string qb back maybe they will put up more than 15 pts……but the defense has been stellar….i think they will compete with baltimore for the division but cincy could be a wildcard team or possibly compete for the division as well, and the browns are still the browns…..

Philadelphia Eagles (No. 20; 1-1): Lost in all the Vick hoopla is the fact that the Eagles nearly lost to the Lions.”
So did the Bears, who you’re ready to put up to number 5 with a win this week. Actually, even though the Bears scored more points than the Lions, the Bears really did lose that game.

These are “power rankings,” and although fans of teams without six lombardis may think otherwise, “power” in the NFL is nothing more than a teams ability to win a championship.
Third string/ fourth string quarterback? A alleged rapist a quarterback? It’s all irrelevant, our defense looks to be even better than 2008.
The Steelers have shown that they are able to win championships with substandard offensive play. TWICE.
Now that’s power.
We’ll be number one next week!

Ruvell- Sure,we love to own the WI losers. You know damn well it hurt to lose twice to us last season,especially with Favre killing you…
As far as SB, unless you are a fortune teller you don’t know who the hell will be there. 0-2 is not the end..

The Falcons almost beat pitt in their house and destroy the cards. 17? please…wait till they beat down the Saints
=====
Translation: They LOST to Dennis Dixon and then beat down a horrible Cardinals team that lost some of its best players in the offseason. The Saints played a much better Cardinals team 7 months ago and beat them down too. Congrats.

I see the Bucs about where you do, but I see them beating Pittsburgh this weekend. You can’t tempt fate without a quarterback for that long. So top 5 then?

Look, don’t come back and try to defend your lame picks by saying the game went one way in the first half. There are two halves to a game and every most teams look good at some point during one. By my count, you got 3 games correct:colts, falcons, seahawks. These were coincidentally my 3 locks going in.
You get no points for the Saints because you said it was going to be a blowout. Saying Dallas must win is not the same as predicting their loss. They’ll still be strong down the road, believe you me.
You thought the Ravens would dismantle the Bengals, and the Pats would destroy the Jets and the Steel couldn’t win in Tennesee. You still seem to thin Vick isn’t used properly and that Reid wont use him when he has Kolb.(FYI: Eagles named Vick the starter yesterday.)
Maybe football picks just isn’t your game. I know, let’s have a spelling contest.

You’re right, they should be much lower. Florio’s a huge Viking fan though, so he’s a little biased.

BTW – Roethlisberger’s got two SB rings, not one.

One ring, one asterisk. I’ll be nice and call it one and a half. It isn’t two though, even the most blind Steelers fans have to know that.

You picked against them all last season and they made you look like a blogging twit every time…oh…right. This year you are trying so hard to move the Steelers (without a QB and playing two anemic teams) to the top of the rankings. Thank heaven you aren’t some easily biased internet blogger that lucked into a national audience…oh…right.
So glad your rankings are basically meaningless in the grand scheme of things, just like so many meaningless things posted on the internet by people that think they have some expertise but really don’t…oh…right.

Everyone keep sleeping on the Steelers as overrated . I think playing with your 3rd and 4th QB . Both tackles are back ups and we played with our third string tackle . Offensive line woes like no other team in the league .
WE beat Atlanta and Ten . We whoop right ? Look what those 2 teams did when they didnt play the Steelers . Shut down 2 top 10 rb’s . Yes the Steelers offense is bad . But we are still winning . Dont you get it ? Every team that is going to play us until Ben gets back is loading the box to shut down the run and force us to pass with no good qb . Yet we are still winning . Dont you get it now why we are ranked 2 ? If you dont get it you clearly are a real moron and dont know football . You are just HATING and have no sense .

CHILDRESS THREW THE GAME AWAY. the dolphins got outplayed but won because of the idiot childress. i cant help that.
the texans are in fact the best team.
steelers are 2-8 in tennessee now. the whole world is astonished by the results they have had to start this season
the crowd got ugly and dallas ‘ season is indeed over.
the chieves won on special teams – BOOYA!
falcons win!
carolina was a bad call by me.
philly won but very nearly gave up a 17 point lead to the lions, and reid is going to kolb as soon as he can. its as if he doesnt know how to use vick
bengals won under dubious circumstances
seahawks are who we thought they were. oops
someone did in fact win the rams/raiders game
the pats rolled and the jets sucked-in the first half.
jags lost. oops
colts were huge
saints showed what they are made of.
so all in all not a great day for the immortal scurds, but most definitely pretty close to a great one. definitely not as bad as you are trying to paint it. i will improve as the season goes on. you on the other hand shall remain right where you are in your own digestive system.
