Wins and Losses

Here's the prediction you're waiting for. How many games will the Steelers win this year?

19, no, not so fast. Let's take a look at the schedule.

9/10 Titans W 1-0 Close, but the homefield advantage tips the scales
9/20 at Da Bears W 2-0 Da Bears aint that good and their new QB threw 4 Ints last week. Too bad Troy can't enjoy one of those tasmanian devil pick 6 ints. Those are fun.
9/27 at the benGals W 3-0 Is there any question why Gals is a part of their name.
10/4 Chargers W 4-0 Uh, there's this guy named Norv Turner that keeps getting head coaching jobs, strange thing is he is a horrible head coach. Home field advantage again is the difference plus Norv is bad. By the way, Ben 2 Phil 0 (Super Bowl Wins)
10/11 at Lions W 5-0 No explanation necessary
10/18 Browns W 6-0 Browns may be 0-6 after this game. They're rebuilding again. Mangenius, not.
10/25 Vikings W 7-0 Adrian Peterson could be the difference in this game, but home field wins the game again. Brett Favre, meet James Harrison. Could be Favre's last game of the season. Troy P. returns and intercepts 3 Favre passes.
11/1 Bye W 8-0 The Steelers win without even playing a game.
11/9 at Denver W 9-0 Can't see Kyle Orton beating the Steelers.
11/15 benGals W 10-0 See above and add Home field to the equation.
11/22 at the Chiefs W 11-0 The Chiefs are rebuilding, Haley's not a bad coach, but firing your OC right before the beginning of the season. Not a formula for success.
11/29 at Ravens L 11-1 I'd like to predict the perfect season, but the Ravens are good and Flacco has a season under his belt. They lost Ryan and a few others. Let's see how the defense plays out for them. I know Ray Ray is old and I never was overly impressed with him. Only win because this game is on the road.
12/6 Raiders 12-1 Again, no explanation necessary. Look up plastic pants in the dictionary and you'll find a picture of Al Davis. Eccentric is an understatement.
12/10 at Browns 13-1 They may have improved from the first meeting, but not enough. By this time Derek Anderson will have replaced Brady Quinn and then Brady Quinn gets another shot.
12/20 Packers W 14-1 I'm not sold on Aaron Rogers and this game is in Pittsburgh.
12/27 Ravens W 15-1 Home game, Steelers even the season series
1/3 at Dolphins L 15-2 In Miami, the starters rest for the playoffs. Could easily be a W.

Don't want to jinx the rest.
Just kidding about the Bye week, by the way.
