• Philip Rivers (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6763/) and J.P. Losman (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6781/) aren't the third-year quarterbacks people should be concerned about. Ben Roethlisberger (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6770/) (zero touchdowns, two interceptions, 38.7 passer rating) is.

who would've thought that after 2 games, Losman would have 0 turnovers to Rothlisberger's 2 and Brady's 4? I hope that trend continues.

The great teams have complete game. They may not dominate in all areas, but they can get the job done in all if needed to win games. We need to show an ability to rely on the pass if the run breaks down. JP's first td throw was beautiful and it looked to me that the Evans pass would have been a TD as well. So far, in 2 games, hes only had 1 TD. He hasnt had any turnovers, but he also had the safety. Id like a 200 yard+ 2 TD, no int game soon to show our opponents defenses they cant simply stack the line. That said, we just did well against 2 strong D's at least versus the run and ended up with 2 90+ total yard games with McGahee. Thats not good enough for me, but it would mean a 1440 yard season, that would be pretty good. Our D is why we have been so tough, our O has yet to show its playoff caliper, they havent lost games for us, but they havent won them yet either.

Honestly, at this point, I can't even see the Steelers even making the playoffs. Their division is a nightmare so far this season.

I rate the Bengals and the Ravens higher then the Steelers and the Browns usually give Pittsburgh a fight as well.

I think that division will finish out:
Bengals
Ravens
Steelers
Browns

If the Bengals and the Ravens make the playoffs, chances are the Steelers will be SOL.

They only have one loss, hardly the end of the world for them. They will rebound, though maybe not against Cinncinati.

If you are talking about Carson Palmer and Chad Johnson I agree.

I am, if CP keeps hanging CJ out to dry it will happen sooner than later.

It's more than that. Pittsburgh's O is not as good without Bettis and Randle El. Their defense will keep them in games but don't expect much from their offense. They just don't have as many weapons they once had.

That's a very real possibility.
