This game tells us a lot. Good teams have to battle these type of elements to continue on to the dance. Defense had to rise up and wreak havoc this week. Steelers O line is hurting and we must take advantage of. If we do, we should have a great chance of winning. This is our season right here

If we ever want to be a championship team we'll need to win in these conditions. The running game will have to get it going or we don't stand a chance
Play 4 quarters. This is pittsburgh's first bad weather game this year too, it will effect both teams. We need to have a good, fast start and hopefully it won't come down to sturgis. No reason we can't win, we are a better team.
I guess no one is giving them a chance because of why? Cause of the weather conditions? Or is it the home advantage what is it? Is it because they think pitt is a better team. I dont normaly get wraped up in the expert picks but this **** is pissing me off. In my opinion this team deserves more respect.

Mike Wallace probably isn't going to catch a pair of 80 yard touchdowns on that field but this team has done well in the snow in the past. Of course, this team also had Reggie Bush tearing it up in the game I'm thinking of, so ... yeah.

The weather is very concerning to me, but we have tough players in key positions. I hope we can outlast the stilers in their own, ****ty backyard.

I'd worry more about PIT having a better QB and better coach, rather than the weather.
That and Miami hasn't won a game there in 23 years

No one ever picks us to win, so that doesn't really bother me. Ground game needs to step it up. Wallace knows how to play in these conditions so I'm not worried. If the defense can step up and put pressure on Ben, and if Philbin can call a 4 quarter game, I'm confident.
Regarless of the weather, this is the kind of game that we normaly lose. Every time we need a big win like this we lay an egg. Hoping this will be different but I'm not holding my breath.

Looking at it from a distance, you'd almost have to favor Pittsburgh. Home game, Bad Weather, Must win Game . . . . all of the pressure is on them to perform. They are just about eliminated if they lose on Sunday, while we could still be tied for the 6 seed with a loss.
Does the team really deserve more respect? I think it needs to be earned . . . and blowing close games against Bmore, Buffalo, Carolina and Tampa say this is a .500 team . . . a win against the sorry Jets doesn't prove anything. This is the type of game, in a tough road environment in tough conditions . . . that earns you some respect. Sure they will be underdogs against New England no matter what and sure maybe these "experts" will say "this isn't your normal Pittsburgh team" . . . . but it's a big win in my books . . . would be the biggest win in the Philbin/Tannehill era. We need one of these.
Mike Florio on PFT TV picked Miami as his dog (underdog) of the week to beat Pittsburgh.
I think the bad weather effects Big Bens ability to break away and throw a long pass, more that it does our offense, which is more short to medium passing. Tanne also spins the ball very well, which will help his passes eat through the wind.

TBO its december football. Learn to play in it. It does not get any better when the playoffs come around. For the most part show isn't that big of a deal and will almost always favor the receivers over the DBs. Wind could easily be a back breaker though. Especially with our kicker.....
