You take all of the fun out of making you look stupid when you do such a bang up job of it by yourself.

Giants and Redskins both better than the Steelers, Jerod? Uh I don’t think so. Actually I look for the Steelmen to do no worse than 2-2 down the next stretch, but we’ll have to see. I mean, I’d HATE to make a prediction that didn’t come true; you look so foolish when you do. Like say, when you forget the words to “I’m All Out of Love” when you’re doing that cover band thing. Not good. Not good at all.

Way to show your age, Old Man.

vs Indianapolis
vs San Diego

The Giants and Redskins are both better than the Steelers, while the Colts and Chargers are talented teams that will be desperate. When Pittsburgh goes 1-3 in these four and is sitting at 6-4, while the Browns right the ship and get to 5-5, there will be only one reality check needed: The final game of the season in Cleveland will still ultimately determine the AFC North champion.

And Big Ben and the Steelers will have to hope for the Wild Card.

Kudos to Rusty here for his “Steelers will be 4-5 by week 9″ prognositication. Nice call there, Nostradumbass. Really, you should be a bookie or something.

Today Steelers fans are feeling like Rusty Russell when he performs in his Partridge Family cover band (he insists on being Keith of course!): “C’mon get happy!”
