The Steelers just didn't show up to play on Sunday. It was a deserved win for the Jets. They were hungrier than we were.

For some dam reason the steelers play up or down to their opponents. It's a good thing the playoffs feature the best teams, if they stuck in some losers we surely would be one and done.

That team definitely showed us that they have just a little more intensity/brute force than we have...it's not much, but apparently enough. They have been very unlucky this year...they could easily be 11 and 0...so overall we should be pleased.
