There’s two major chances to take back the AFC

People have suddenly decided that a loss to the Broncos means Pittsburgh is going to lose to the Chargers and the Patriots. Guess what – the games haven’t been played yet so stop acting like they have.

This team is still one of the best in football. It’s like the win over the Panthers just disappeared and one small setback has sent them into a comma for the remainder of the season. I wonder if that’s how Carolina fans felt when they came to Pittsburgh and lost 52-21.

The season is no where near over and those two games can decide much more than a loss to Denver. Stop acting like the next five weeks have already been decided because they haven’t. This team has all the capability to compete with the Chargers, Texans, Saints and anyone else the NFL throws at them. Don’t forget that.
