Seems to me we beat them more often then not. They may be a better team, but much like Baltimore has our number, we seem to have their number during the Big Ben - Tomlin era.

No doubt it wont be easy, but we can into Pittsburgh and beat them in the playoffs. Currently they have 1 fewer win then us and we already beat them. Hell, we have the home fieild advantage if the NFL playoff structure wasnt so screwed up.
 
Who is saying that? Ravens, yes. For good reason. I don't think many teams in the NFL are "scared" of the Steelers but it is hard to beat them at Ketchup Park. That said...they are very beatable.
 
In order of preference to play in first round:

Texans
Colts
Titans
Steelers
Ravens
 
Nobody is scared of the Steelers here from what I've read. Everyone is worried about the Ravens

Honestly, I'd swap the Titans with Steelers but agree otherwise.
 
Miami won the last 2 meetings with Pittsburgh but Before that Miami lost every game vs them. If Miami was healthier, going to Pittsburgh in January wouldn't seem so bad. If it was a first meeting and not a rematch I'd also feel better. Hard to beat teams twice in one season
 
Ravens appear to be Miami's nemesis.

I'm afraid of the squealers fan base... its like people of walmart .com

I'd love at least 1 season when the squealers & donkeys did not make the playoffs... That said going up to coal country and b-slapping putzburgh twice in one season would be the best thing EVER.

I'm not. Hell, I hope we play them.

It's just one short hour away from me. I've never been to a Dolphins playoff game before. :up:
 
I'm not scared of anyone. The team isn't either. However, the Ravens own our souls for some reason. I don't want to play them on the road. It's going to feel like we have no shot in that game going in.
 
Really waiting on someone to post gif from Home Alone.

"I'm not afraid anymore!"

I'm in the same boat. Hoping for a playoff game in Pittsburgh so I can attend. I'm about 3 hours away. It would be a long shot to upset the Steelers at home. But if it were to happen and I didn't attend I would be kicking myself for the rest of time. The chance to see all the steeler fans go home silent would be worth the risk of attending and getting beat. Never been to Dolphin playoff game. Maybe we can party together if it all comes to fruition.
 
We are scared because well coached teams and good QBs pick us apart. Ben can escape pressure well too. It's also hard to win at Heinz. I would much rather play Tennessee or Houston.

Although we did handily beat the Steelers earlier this year, but we will be mistaken if we think that will happen again.

"Scared," I think, is a little strong. "Worried" sounds better. The game would be in Pitt, which makes it tougher, they have playoff experience, and, IMO, are a better team than when Miami beat them earlier. And the cliche . . . "it's hard to beat a good team twice in a year."
