Colin Cowherd: “The Steelers are so good defensively, they’re so physical, and they’re so emotional, that they overwhelm a lot of their mistakes. This is why I struggle to buy into them. They only have two double-digit wins. You are who I see, and you’re close against everyone. They overwhelmed Cleveland and they get up for big games, but I’ve fallen for this a half dozen times in the last decade, where they’re really good in the regular season, they kind of play to their competition, and then they get to the postseason and you got an Andy Reid, a Bill Belichick, a Tony Dungy, or a Peyton Manning. They got Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes around the corner. That’s all about details, that’s all about efficiency, and those guys just waltz through the playoffs. When I watch Pittsburgh I think they’re a really great television show, and think they’re a ‘good’ football team. I know they’re talented, I know they’re tough, but you gotta blow out more teams. They tend to win our hearts, the favor of our fantasy teams, the networks like them, they’ve got a highly emotional, coach, they’re physical, they get in your face, and they knock you out -- they FEEL like football. It’s a really great television show. I think they’re a ‘good’ football team… I don’t trust them.” (Full Video Above)
