C'mon, guys. While I'm happy when they win, temper your enthusiasm. It was one game. When they can go 10-6 or better, then we can ALL rave!

I think this was a very good win for the Steelers. The Panthers were a 12-4 team last season, and they do employ one of the better defenses in football, and the Steelers torched them on the ground. I don't know which Steelers team will show up on any given week though. The first half of the Browns game and last night's game...well yeah that team is pretty good. The second half against Cleveland and the Baltimore game....yeah that team was no good.
Costly game last night, Ike Taylor's arm is shattered. Jones and Shazier left early also. For a shaky defense as it is, those are big losses.

Man friendly fire has really killed the Steelers recently. Last year DeCastro shredded Pouncey's knee and last night Timmons hurt both as hazier and Taylor.

This team is so up and down right now. 6 very good quarters and 6 really bad. If they can find some consistency they will be are very good team. They just went on the road and smacked around a playoff team.

You hate to start counting wins with an inconsistent team like the Steelers, BUT the next four games Tampa, @ Jacksonville, @ Cleveland, Houston...That's not exactly murder's row. 3-1 should be expected 4-0 isn't out of the question. They should be able to win the next 2 weeks.
