With the 3 games remaining against SF,ARIZ, and SEA.Then they start playing harder teams starting with Denver.

Well since Pittsburgh beat the Buffalos with no problem, and Denver barely made it past them I would not say they are a tough team. The Steelers could very well be 5-0 going into the bye week. Everyone can say they played two horrible teams, but the Browns scored 51 points on the Bengals, and they are supposed to be a Super Bowl contending team. The Patriots played two horrible teams also, but this year there are no definate wins.
I will be happy when the Steelers beat the Patriots in Fox Boro this year, then all the Band Wagon jumping Patriot fans can make excuses for it.
As much as people hate to admit it, the Steelers are a good team, and have a great chance of making it back to the Super Bowl this year. There defense is awesome this year.

I think it will be a 5-0 going into bye week.
SF: Okay team. Yeah, they're 2-0, but that won't last past this week. They don't have the team meshing that the Steelers have.
AZ: Young team. Leinart is a youngin. It's those rookie/2nd year mistakes that will take them out of the game. (Hey, it happened to Ben!)
SEA: The hardest team going into bye week. BUT they lost to Arizona. Puts up some ??s there.
If the Steelers show up for all four quarters of each game, we should be at least 12-4 if not better for the season. Playoffs, here we come!

Even though the Steelers admittedly have played two mediocre teams, they haven't even played that well themselves, yet they destroyed them both. Coach Tomlin has instilled something in the team that was missing last year; this year's team is mean and hungry! I think there is a very good possibility the Steelers could go 5-0 before Denver. Let's also note that the Broncos just barely beat both Buffalo AND Oakland (overtime).

I am worried more about SF, Arizona, and the Seahags more than I'm worried about Denver.
The Broncos barely beat 2 of the worst teams in the league.
But then again, Big Ben is 11-1 against the NFC.

Well with the only road game being Arizona, a dome, it looks like they have a decent chance. Honestly I think Arizona may be harder though, you know Weisnhunt and Grimm would enjoy beating the Steelers.

It's certainly possible, and I think even expected considering how well they played the last 2 games - complete domination against not-so-good teams SHOULD translate into at least 3 more straight wins. but then, as they say, it's "any given Sunday..."
I'm hoping for a 16-0 regular season and another super bowl ring, personally, though.
Here we go Steelers, here we go!
:O)

The steelers schedule the first 5 weeks is pathetic......
browns, buffalo. I HATE TO SAY IT YOUR STEELERS PLAYED TWO HORRIBLE TEAMS! You guys are not in contention with my home team pats and the colts for homefield advantage. . You guys will go 4-1 which is great probaly what the colts will do and maybe pats. But you guys will end 11-5 with no divisional bye. Reason? you guys play after your bye the @ pats (good luck) @ broncos, @ bengals @ rams @ravens. not in that order obviously but those 5 games consists of atleast 2 losses.

Umm..Denver is better than Seattle? They could lose to Seattle, but then again they lost to Arizona..I guess it's a possibility..but there are no guaranteed wins in the NFL, anyone against anyone.

um... No ! you play dogs and your good , you play teams with something to prove? we will see, but as far as i can see ... no 5 and 0 start . i say a 3 and 2 start will be a more likely scenario.

Yep. This is why I picked them to win the AFC North. Their schedule is so easy. 5-0 should be expected.
