The Steelers have zero chance of winning the Super Bowl

It's the Steelers to win the Super Bowl 55 to 1 and I'm sitting here watching them go 11 and 0 and being like, well, it doesn't really matter... In the back of my head, I'm like, no chance. Zero percent chance.

The Steelers lost in the first round of the playoffs to the Browns.

The Steelers are the worst 11-0 team of all time

Yeah, I think it's fair to say the Steelers are the worst 11-0 team of all time.

While subjective, the 2020 Steelers are frequently cited as the worst 11-0 team ever given their late-season collapse and first-round playoff exit.

The Steelers should try to lose to the Washington Football Team to reset their season for a 'revenge tour'

I actually think that they should try to lose a game just so that everyone can be down on them and then they can come back and be like, fuck you, revenge tour in the playoffs. They should probably lose this game against the Washington football team.

The Steelers did lose to Washington, but they did not have a 'revenge tour'; they collapsed, losing 4 of their last 5 and getting bounced in the first round.

If Big Ben Roethlisberger is benched for rest in Week 17, he won't be mentally ready for the playoffs

I do think that if they were to bench Ben Roethlisberger and some of their other starters later on in the season, like week 17, I don't think that Big Ben comes back ready for the [playoffs]. I think he will believe that he is benched because he's injured in that one week off. And then that's going to mess with him mentally.

Roethlisberger did rest in Week 17 and then threw 4 interceptions in a Wild Card loss to the Browns, arguably proving the 'not ready' part of the take.

Kevin Willard's joke about firing his staff was funny and shouldn't have been taken seriously

It was such a clear joke and people, I couldn't believe... There were people who actually thought he was being serious. I thought it was a funny joke. And then we had the people trying to cover for themselves being like, well, even if it was a joke, that's not a joke you make. Imagine if you're an assistant and you hear your boss say that.

Whether a joke is funny or appropriate is subjective.

The lack of Cinderellas in the tournament isn't due to NIL but because big teams are more efficient and physical

Todd Golden had a very good point... part of the reason why there's less upsets is teams are just getting way more efficient in scoring at the rim and becoming almost like raising their floor and becoming upset proof in the fact that you get really big dudes... and absolutely hammer the boards. And when you do that against smaller schools, you're not gonna like, how do big schools lose the small schools is like three point variance.

This is an analytical opinion on sports trends that can't be definitively proven right or wrong.

The Sweet 16 in Houston won't be a home game for the Cougars because Iowa and Nebraska fans travel too well

Illinois, Nebraska and Iowa have some pretty big fan bases that are all gonna wanna travel, especially Nebraska... I don't think it's gonna be like they're gonna take over the place, but I don't think it's gonna be 80% Houston at this game.

The attendance split of the Sweet 16 regional in Houston will determine this.
