I will use yellow toilet paper all week in honor of this game and your cause.

 

I'm definitely with you. I'm normally one of those who holds on the playoffs hope the longest, but I've thrown that towel in. So now I just want to see a good COMPLETE game, finish .500, and play spoiler for the Steelers. My dad isn't a huge fan, he more just like to antagonize me with my Phins, but he does like the Steelers so I want the bragging rights there. We beat Carolina so that gave me the edge against my mom and most of my friends (Panthers).

 

to hell with the steelers!

THIS MEANS WAR!

 

I would like to see us go out on a good note.

 

Yay, yay, rah, rah.

We couldn't beat the Texans at home with our season on the line. What makes you think we'll beat a desperate Steelers team? :pity:

 

No offense, but I think he is out for the season already. You may have to get payback on a different Steelers player.

 

It would be a decent consolation to send the Stealers home disappointed as well. Misery loves company.

 

Written on the back of every marriage license.

 

LOL....go be a homer somewhere else! :tongue2:

 

Good one Tiger:wink2:

 

Why ? we would only be hurting ourselfs more by moving down a few spots in the draft,We need all the help we can get

 

Watch them destroy the Steelers and play great two weeks too late, that is the story of my life watching the Dolphins.

 

My friends a Steeler fan and we bet 100 bucks on this game about a month ago. I wanna see my Dolphins come out and play like I know they can! LETS GO DOLPHINS!

 

I would rather end the Steelers playoff hopes and still have some glimmer of hope than laying over and dying to pick 2 spots higher in the draft.

 

Call me a fool but at the end of the day that win will mean nothing and on the other hand moving up the slot could land us a future pro bowler



Think about it and tell me who would be the bigger fool ?

 

But what if Houston, Baltimore, Jax, and NY all lose? It is possible so we should hope for a win. Who wants to end a season on a three game losing streak anyway?

 

That win will keep Pittsburgh out of the playoffs. F*** Pittsburgh. Winning will make it a .500 season. Winning against the defending Super Bowl champs will be a decent way to end the season and maybe have some momentum carry over into 2010.

 

The one that moves up a few picks to pay more salary and does not have any guarantee that the PRO BOWLER exists in that slot or even 5 slots lower. Its silly to think moving up in the draft to "sooner/higher/quicker" draft pick ever equates to better talent.

Win every game possible and use your picks as they are slotted, everything else WILL take care of itself. A higher draft pick does not help this team more than WINNING does, ever!

We had the #1 pick and we have had the LAST pick in the round.....neither guarantees anything when it comes to getting us into CHAMPIONSHIP or retaining CHAMPIONSHIP form.

Win the games you play as often as possible.

 

JaMarcus Russell-Round 1

Tom Brady-Round 6

You can find a ProBowler anywhere. You take wins where you find them. :up:

 

:up:

:sidelol: Epic.

 

LOL....go be an emo somewhere else! :tongue2:

This logic is all kinds of ******ed.

 

I agree i can't bring myself to root against them but it will not ruin my day if they lose.
I think going 11-5 was a curse in disguise.Our draft was good last year but imagine if we moved up about 7 or 8 spots in the 2009 draft.
I want a superbowl in 2 years and if losing to the steelers helps us get better players to reach this goal in the future then the hell with this game.

 

We should be owing the steelers a thanks. They beat the Ravens last week which put us in the playoffs if we could win out. We couldn't deliver against a Houston team which has been a huge pain in our ***. Would be nice to win to end the season.

 

Drafting #11 or #20 to me, has no impact on the quality of player you get. Every year guys from #17+ play better than guys 16 and down. It's WHO you choose, not where you choose them.

 

This is intrinsically true; yet, if draft order meant nothing you'd never see a trade-up to get a player that wouldn't be available later.

 

If you have your heart set on player x obviously that would be the exception. Personally I'd never trade up unless I felt it was a weak draft class, or I was one piece away.



Or it was Calvin Johnson.

 

I am so pumped! I would be more pumped if they did their job and won that way it would be on sunday night football for the final playoff spot, but still excited anyway. Screw the draft I want the season to end on a high note, and I do not want a losing season! And hey...miracles can happen.

It's going to be sad when the season is over until September...damn that is a long time away. Unless of course the Jags, Texans and Ravens lose also....then we become even bigger bengals fans.

 

Or Andre Johnson. :lol:

Point is, it doesn't mean nothing at all. Not a reason to want to lose, but...honestly? If we lose Sunday I won't be as upset as I was last Sunday.

Put it this way: win and we aren't going anywhere in the playoffs with a team as bereft of talent as we are on Defense and WR; BUT - one or two draft spots might mean the difference between Dez Bryant or Sergio Kindle and the next-best guy.

BIG difference.

 

Both of those guys might turn out to be nothing though.

We got Vontae Davis last draft....we picked the right guy. He's played better than a lot of guys we could have gotten earlier.

I see what you are saying, but I still want to win regardless of draft position, and if we lose I'll still be unhappy. Especially since I wont see this team play again for a long time.
