Obviously Michael G isn't much of a fan, saying that Timmons is a bust. Please, he's gonna be the next Greg Lloyd and he's already been compared to Lawrence Taylor. And they don't have any power backs? What in the hell do you think Najeh Davenport and Kevan Barlow are? Anyway, they'll be in the playoffs with a 10-6 record, but I don't know if Tomlin can lead them past the Pats yet. Give him a couple years and they'll be back in the Super Bowl.

Depends on how things go with the new center and how the Coaching staff makes the calls. I think they should do fine this season to be honest. I'm a fan though so yeah I am a little biased. To be fair though I don't see why they shouldn't do good. I think the biggest problem last year was that Big Ben was hurt most of the season. First the crash, then just as he was about recovered he had the appendectomy and then the Concussion late in the game against the Falcons.

This is Big Ben's chance to prove to the entire football world that his injuries were a factor last year. Ben's roll as a QB wil expand. They will incorporate a more active passing game this season. The team itself has had time to adjust to Jerome Bettis being gone as well. Willie Parker is an excellent decoy with break-away speed, but the key to success is Ben.
The Defense is moving to a 4-3 also. We will see.
The year we went 15-1, we were picked to go 6 and 10. Definitely watch them as they could be the dark horse this year.

No
The defense is going to miss Joey Porter and the players which they are grooming to replace him will not be as dominant this season.
However, the main problem is that the primary workhorse of their running game, Alan Faneca, is sitting for 10 games. Not only will he be missed as a blocker but more importantly as the leader of the line.
8-8, no playoffs.

The good thing about this league is any team can come back and have a great season after a bad one....I just don't think the steelers can do much this year.

No way, they have lost their three top coaches and they last any real receiver to complement Hines Ward. The best they can hope for is second or third in their division. Trust me I'm a Lions fan and I know a team that doesn't have a shot when I see one.

No, theres too many better teams in the AFC, and the New England Patriots are the team to beat.

Yeah but they'll be a Wild Card though.
