Jax fans need to worry now

playing them. The thing you people need to worry about is that you can
see PGH starting to jell, and we all know what happen when they start to
jell (win divs, etc.)
Hats off to Cincy, but they won't figure in this year's div. This is the
precise kind of loss PGH has always built from, and anyone who saw KS
out there blowing by tacklers like no one else can do (he is *much*
faster than Brunell), knows PGH is starting to get it together, loss or
not.
Mark my words, this is the beginning of a run! Remember I said that.

Wait a minute, wasn't this team a game away from the SB last year? Why
do they need 6+ games *and* the preseason to "jell"? Face it, by the
time this team "jells", the division will be well out of reach - heck
the playoffs might be out of reach...cman, better abandon "Team Titanic"
before its too late...

Mark my words, Pittsburgh will go 2-2 in their next 4 games. Losses in KC and
vs Green Bay. KC may not have done well today, BUT they DO NOT lose at home
(except in the playoffs).....

so what if you make a run? The jags are getting ready to make a run
of their own, and they havent lost a game yet. I watched the end of
the game, and i didnt see any ability to pass from korshit.

So, when does this start? First you said that they would play poorly
for the first couple games, then it was a couple more, and recently I
saw a post of yours in the Steeler group that said they should start
to gell within the next three. Funny how you keep changing it.

Too bad he's not a better passer. How many weeks has he gone without a
TD pass? Three? It takes more than fancy running to make a QB.
>Mark my words, this is the beginning of a run! Remember I said that.
But do you realize that it won't matter unless the Jags start losing?
At some point the Jags will have to have drop a few to let Pittsburgh
catch up (a win vs. Miami puts us up two games). If they don't, the
Steelers will be playing for a wildcard. The only definite losses I
see for the Jags are Denver and Minn. with the game in Pitts. being a
little iffy. Other than that, I think the remaining games on our
schedule are very winable.

This is nothing like the Steeler loss at Jacksonville last year. Even
though they lost, it was remarkable how confident and almost smug the
Steeler fans and coaches were after that game. It was like they once again
knew that the Steelers were the team to beat in the division, which was
true. As a Jaguar fan, I remember that very, very well. I also remember
coming away from that game confident that we could compete for the
division, but knowing that the Steelers would still be the team standing in
our way - the "class of the division" to use a term from an earlier thread.
Now we know that was also true.
This year, though, I'm getting a different impression from the Steeler
woes. This game does nothing to change that. If the Steelers were getting
back on track, then they would have blown Cinci's weak defense away, Bettis
or no Bettis. For the first time in several years, I have the feeling that
the Steelers may not have all of the pieces in place to rebuild themselves
as a contender this season. Of course, that's just my impression, and I
could be wrong.

Quit putting words in my mouth. I never qualified PGH as only needing 2 games
to jell. They have started 2-2 every year under Cowher but this year, so they
are ahead of the game.
From what I saw Sunday, PGH is close to getting it together. They just need a
better game plan than coveing Pickens with single coverage. That was the
difference of the game. Even with Bettis out, PGH was man handling Cinci.
They are on their way, and if you understood football, you'd plainly see
that.

LOL! I'll hold you to this. Let it be known: George thinks Jax can only
lose to Den and Minn, no other team will beat them this year. LOL! I love

Bill Cowhers Steeler record in KC during the reg. season: 2-1.
So what were you saying again?
GB in PGH on MNF? I'll take PGH.
This is just another example of lack of knowledge. Cowher has a winning record
*IN* KC! That doesn't guarantee a win, but obviously you were lacking knowledge on
this one like usual

PGH had some problems Sunday, but Kordell wasn't one of them. It was probably

and I'll know it's the same old theme I hear every year about PGH.
The year they were 3-4 and went to the super bowl, I heard this too.
PGH was clearly better than Cinci, but using single coverage on Pickens will
change that in a heart beat, and it did.

You could be right c. Last year the Steelers went on a tear after losing
the Monday night game to Jacksonville. The race was very interesting and
went down to the wire. Things will get interesting again this year. The
Jaguars have a three game road trip coming up and there's a chance they
could go 1-2 on that trip. In fact, before the end of the season, I won't
be shocked to see the Steelers take the division lead for awhile.
The key this year is that the Jaguars are winning the games they wouldn't
have won last year, and will make a run of their own after the three game
road trip. That's when the Jags play 5 of 8 at home, where they're 16-2
over since 1996. Also, there's only one team (Green Bay) that has a better
record over the last 26 regular season games.
In short, even if the Steelers do pull ahead for awhile, it probably won't
be enough this year.

uh, I just randomly picked a couple years to verify your statement,
"They have started 2-2 every year under Cowher but this year,"
1996, Steelers started 3 - 1.
Not a pot shot, cman. It's called backing up statements with facts.

Then Brunell had some bad games then, huh? That's what you must be saying. He's
averaging 216 yards, with some of his games around 150 yards passing. Did he stink
those games then? Or is it the QBs job to make the offense score, whether it's
with passing or running or whatever?

By who's definition? Is there a rule book that says what the QB is supposed to do?
When Brunell runs well, you brag about it, now it's a bad thing when Kordell does
it huh?

Nope, because many have stated PGH can't possibly catch up to Jax being 2 games
out. That means they are expecting Jax do go at least 15-1. They'd have to to make
the above true.

Like I said, it's just my impression so far. I have as much respect for
Cowher as anybody, and if anybody can turn the Steelers around it's him.
I'm not saying that the Steelers aren't a good team, or anything like that,
just that I don't see them getting to the level where they can get to the
super bowl this year.

If the Jags keep up their present pace, a Pittsburgh comeback won't

I didn't mean it that way. I meant that the Jags are _capable_ of
winning the rest and that 13 or 14 wins are possible. But I'm not
going to try to explain this to you any further. You don't seem able
to understand without taking things out of context. But what else is
