I thought they'd go 8-8.
They won the Super Bowl, but with a record of 9-7. They didn't make any major additions and lost Bettis; I figured they'd finish with a slightly worse record as long as Rothelisberger played to form.
If you'd said they'd go 7-9 when the season started, I wouldn't have disagreed too much. But where they're headed is definitely not what I expected.

they are going to be quite solid, however the Patriots and Chargers will beat them interior the playoffs. The Steelers do exactly not score adequate factors and that they'd't beat a healthful New England or San Diego interior the convention recreation

If you ask me, the Steelers were lucky last year. Yeah they have a few good defensive players but that's it. As you can see, this season they are showing their true colors. Big Ben isn't that great of a quarterback. If he is so great, why can't he continue his winning streak as how Peyton is. Yeah he didn't win the bowl last year but Manning is doing the same thing he did last season. Big Ben is a wash; a has been; old news. By next season you'll be like "Ben who."

I was right there with you at the start of the season. I said they wouldn't even make the playoffs, and no one took my serous! But Look at the facts last year they played great near the end of the season and got lucky, and then The bus retired and Randell El left pretty much killin' the offense. Not to mention Big Ben's Accident I knew he wouldn't play like his old self!

They suck because they're trying to do what they can't do:throw the ball 40 times per game. They won the Superbowl last year by running the ball often and consistently but they got away from that and now we're seeing the result.

At first, I would have disagreed w/you, but after yesterday I'm a believer. Oh well, time to get ready for next season. By the way, last year was not a fluke, I think they just forgot they had to come back & defend the title. Enjoy your laugh, you deserve it.

they're not gonna go 4-12 genius and you're probably the only one to predict that they'd be bad and now you have a whole bunch of people jumping on your bandwagon but i say to you don't let your ego get to you and to the person who said ben had only one good year he had two good years and a down year this year

Well, you were dead right. As a Steeler fan, I know last year was a lucky year. But I didn't expect this total collapse this year. We are now officially in the "wait 'til next year' mode...
