I agree,with Collin Cowherd
Pittsburgh will have a losing record
At 7-10
And winning records don't mean SB wins
Year 8 of "Steelers getting a losing record and Tomlin's getting fired" yall never learn.
This time it’s a ring
Going 500 every year isn't anything to be happy about. They've needed to rebuild since the killer Bs left, but because of some great defensive talent and a top 5 coach they eek out a winning season every year and they just seem stuck and spinning their tires with no answers for offense especially qb.
@@kylelenertz550910-7( last year) record is not a .500 record the math ain't mathing 😂
@josephdonovan9125 they are essentially going .500 over the last 5 years. They squeak into the playoffs occasionally just to get absolutely destroyed and embarrassed and everyone knows that's what's going to happen. Go ahead and keep being overly literal as if that makes a point. Meanwhile my point stands they're spinning tires going nowhere wasting careers.
@@kylelenertz5509first you are using a bot account 😂😂😂 why are you even trying to talk bro you’re already the joke 🤣🤣🤣
Take a shot for every time Colin says "OFFENSIVE COACH"
And your dead
Why he say Deshaun like that mean something tho? Lmao 🤣
Yeah, Deshaun has a long way to go to get back to 2020 form. But Cleveland was tough last year.
Ur moms tattoo is wild
Watch deshaun go off while you eat
Crow
@@Grandpabeatdowngo off where?? 😂😂😂
If it goes with his narrative he’ll put lipstick on a pig
Steelers went 5-1 in division in the toughest division last year. It’s tough but they will have a winning season. They always do
Went 5 and 1 with no QB1
Uhh I wouldn’t throw that stat around, their one loss against the browns doesn’t tell the whole story.
They faced the burrow-less bengals late in the season when they were declining hard
They faced ravens week 18 where the ravens were a lock for #1 cede and were already in playoff prep mode.
And finally their win against the ravens was a low scoring messy game that could’ve went either way but came down to some messy fumbles and int by the ravens. And their win against the browns was again a one possession game decided by a fumble returned for a td, which you can’t depend on every game.
I don’t think 5-1 paints a good picture there was a lot of good fortune for the Steelers and you can believe the bengals are not an easy 2-0 wash this year. I have nothing against your team btw just saying it how it is.
@@geo.j27 it’s still 5 and 1 though ???
@@thomasdavis1107 I agree but I wouldn’t use it to project. For example, when the dolphins were on a hot streak, the games against the bills and ravens where they got completely torched showed that they probably couldn’t handle a play off team. You could definitely say, the bills ended 11-6 and the dolphins ended 11-6, but the game result doesn’t tell the whole story. Tangent, which is why bad analysts sometimes get away with horrible takes, they don’t watch the games and report off a record.
Without Burrow last year we beat Cincinnati twice. This year I think we split it 1-1. Your prediction of a winning season for us is hopeful but I’ll go with that.
Jackson and Watson combine to have 1 win over Pittsburgh
Its a new season…You guys will go 9-8 or 10-7 get the 7th seed then get blown out in the first round..but hey..at least Tomlin will get fired and the “Never had a losing streak” will stay alive right..since that’s all you guys care about😭😭
Watson only payed pit once....and putt cheap shot on nick chubb...
Browns will destroy Pitt this year, unless fields starts the season
@@aaronclay4665falls, Watson lost against them in the last game of the 2022 season
@@CvFromMiamiwhat are you smoking 😂
@@bears2life366 everything I said was facts and you know it
Can't wait to hear Colin backpeddlin like PrimeTime during his 1st " where Colin was wrong" segment😂
And like the Steelers always do they're going to be .500 in that stretch
Leta gooo
This make no dang sense. Why are all the division games in the last 7. Its like the NFL wants the Steelers to lose.
Steelers are going to surprise a lot of people watch
@@JulianMcKeithan by finally finishing under 500 and firing Tomlin can't wait!
At least the offensive line will have time to learn to work together and the quarterback will get to know his receivers I think it's actually good playing the division games late. They will beat Atlanta they're going to play rookie quarterback in Denver Chargers come to Pittsburgh, week 4 they beat Indy. 4-0 or 3-1. Week 5 Dallas at home, Tomlinson wins in prime time. Week 6 they will beat Las Vegas. They will have 1 loss when they play Baltimore, Lamar has never beaten the Steelers so they keep winning
@@YoitsGoose not going to happen watch 12-5 record lose in the afc championship game
Yea they want Mike gone
Insane to me how Colin acts like the Broncos are good and have been good in recent years just cause his friend is the head coach 😆
they smell like 6-11 to me, it's wild the hype they get
Never thought Colin would get on the Bears bandwagon. 🐻 down!
He only cares about the USC QB they drafted. Dude thinks USC is a conveyer belt of QB talent.
You’re assuming Joe Burrow will be playing at the end of the season.
Exactly. Its not like Joey B. Hasn't missed any games or the entire season over the last 3 seasons?! O. Yeah. That's right. He has! 🖤💛
That's why's these guys knkw absolutely nothing about football and what managing a football team is. Injuries, bad calls, attrition and okie dokes can and will dictate how your season goes if not managed efficiently. They look at paper and pretend nothing else matters.
The Steelers own the Ravens. I'm not even a Steelers fan and I know that. The Steelers actually do well in their divisional games. The end of the schedule is rough but it's not like they can't win half those games.🤦🏻♀️
And we can hold those teams under 20 especially Lamar 😂
The Steelers own the Ravens but will probably find a way to randomly lose to lowly teams like the Giants and Raiders to balance it out, and they’ll once again be around .500
WHAT! Not back to back like that that's INSANE
As a Ravens fan, the respect I have for Tomlin and Steelers is immaculate. Never mark a game vs Steelers as a W.
Respect! I look forward to Steelers/Ravens every year.@Hoodlum728
What’s even worse for the Steelers is Deshaun might be out for the season by the time they play the Browns
Watson was 5 and 1ast year..
@@aaronclay4665because of the defense, how stupid are you morons on TH-cam?
Steelers are 7-1 against the Ravens in the last 4 years as well as them having a winning record against the Browns
Right. They’ll probably sweep the Ravens but also lose to the Raiders and Commanders to keep the balance. They always find a way to be .500.
@@dpackerman4203 typical Pittsburgh Steelers for you and the Ravens will end up winning the division and maybe getting the 1 seed again
They are 6-1 in Baltimore since 2017
To have division games back to back to back to back to back is crazy..never seen that before..
Everywhere i look Steelers fans keep saying this..What have the Steelers done over that stretch…No playoff wins,No 1 seed and no division titles..All they care about is that stupid “never had a losing season” streak that glorifies mediocrity..Tj Watt still has ZERO playoff wins.
Cowboys got a break because half their division is trash
Haha don’t be shocked at a Pittsburgh resurgence
Another 9-8 season with loss in wild card in coming
@persistentlypathetic6😂820
@@persistentlypathetic6820better than some teams that are perpetual disappointments. Least i know what im getting and every game is interesting
I can see it, that whole division or at the least 3 of em can get in the playoffs.
Disagree with this take as a steelers fan, their biggest weakness is always playing down to competition and losing games they should win, so them being locked in all season is a good thing
EXACTLY. I am worried about the first half of the season.
Yea in order to make noise they gotta stay focus all year long no time off
This guy is wise... 💯
Speaking for the LV Raiders. The Chargers and Harbaugh dont scare us at all.
Right!?! Harbaugh will start 0-1. That’s a Raiders home game!!
Right? It's the Raiders themselves that scare you! 😂
@@franklinshriver8441 😂 I must say that’s a fair statement lol. I HAVE experienced a bit of anxiety before a few games in the past . Juss sayin lol 😆
So He is saying Tomlin is getting Fired🤣🤣🤣
He just wants the drama for a segment 🤣
He'll be hired before he leaves the office, if he is!!
Herd is a hater!!!
@@tyalprincehis numbers must be going down
Literally nobody calls you “uncle colin “ 😂😂
Never fails, Colin picks Steelers to finish last and sub 500 in the north.. but they make the playoffs. That’s 3 years in a row now of this
Why are the Steelers supposed to be scared of our division rival QB's: Burrow 3-2 vs Steelers, Jackson2-4, Watson 0-3. Steelers recent division wins: 2021 4-2, 2022 3-3, 2023 5-1.
Good audio! Nice job!
Been Bears fan for many years and they always seem to have top 5 easiest schedule in preseason and top 5 hardest after the year is over. I will say that the schedule makers seem to be kind to the Bears looking at it right now…..
Seattle without Pete Carroll is gonna be weird
One thing people forget about the over-rated record of Mike Tomlin (never a losing season).
For most of the 90's and 2000's the Bengals and Browns were 2 of the worst teams in the league.
That's 4 layups a season. All the Steelers needed to do was eek out 4 more wins to go .500 (8-8)
Fact of the matter is Pittsburgh hasn't been relevant in well over a decade, haven't won a playoff game in 9 years, after this season it will be 10
I predict the 9ers to make it back to the SB or at least the Championship game. Their roster is still too loaded and with even more of a chip on their shoulder now.
“ The Jets generally unravel“ lol. Keep’em coming Colin
Where’s Colins take now after Luka obliterated his precious Thunder ? 🤔
I love how you always talk down on the steelers. Then to think Tomlin is going to be fired is crazy!
Yes, I think Tomlin would get hired in a hurry if he ever got fired.
Should have been fired years ago
@@jasonwyman1873that doesn't mean he's the right coach for the Steelers
I mean Tomlin is a good coach but the Steelers keep trying to run it back with him and they seem to have hit their ceiling.
@@Rynos8771who the right coach for the Steelers then???
Wow you are actually making sense I don't always agree but today I agree
All that means for the Steelers is that they need to score more points in the second half of the season. The defense is going to have to stay healthy and fresh. The backups are going to have to step up and give quality snaps when called on. Let’s go Steelers
That is a brutal final 8. WOW!
Hype these games up all you want. Injuries will be knocking at the door.
J-Whack better in smaller doses or just the Headlines segment lol. 😂😂😂 They should get a competent woman for that secretary job like Jenny Taft or something lol
J-Whack 😂🤣😂
Uncle Collin didn’t yell at me at the end. I’m so happy
WHY doesn't the NFL make ALL TEAMS have a bye from wks 8-11?
They really should. Even with the international series it still isn’t hard to do.
Half the teams get a bye in week 9 other half get week 10. Done
@@scotttild boom!!
Texans lost to the Falcons last year Colin.
where colin was WRONG
He's always wrong about something, but this schedule is nasty!
He finally got it right when he referred to Wilson as a declining QB, I mean he’s been in decline for about 4 years now
I thank you for making this channel I appreciate it you are a nice kind person
Goff only has 3 outdoor games. 😯12+ wins easy
Last year TJ Watt called out the NFL for being anti Steelers. There was some truth to it but I had no issues with doubting it. Having all the divisional games stacked from week 11 on is pure insanity. I don't know how this is possible when you're not even playing first place schedule in a division where 3 teams made the play offs. Insanity
The beauty of the NFL season is that everyone starts out undefeated. As the season wears on, more is decided by the Health of each team then any supposed schedule. The Bears were competitive, last year, so expectations are higher. The Ravens and or the Chief are the TEAMS to beat.
Cowherd has always hated the Steelers lol. It’s all good, we always prove him wrong
Steelers have a weird schedule but it will work in their favor. Same 3 opponents crammed together like that allows them to hyper focus on those teams and their playbooks - thats an advantage.
Steelers will be riding a WC spot for sure. They will be ok, I do think Steelers fans are a little to confident though. Browns and Bengals go into that stretch healthy. Those are some tough games
Justin Fields didn't light it up in Chicago. Russell Wilson has a good borderline great season last year. At some point we have to move beyond the narrative and see things as they truly are.
Stop it lol. If you actually watched Russ last year he looked worse than his stats suggested. Justin wasn’t much better but at least had his legs to fall back on
😂
That schedule is brutal. 6 divisional games in the last 8, with the defending champs towards the end.
Having said that, my Steelers own the Ravens, play the Bengals tough and the Browns are the Browns.
They will finish above 500 yet again.
So, I could see the Bears going 0-4 to start the season. Despite what you think of the Titans, Williams struggles early. Titans win. Colts and Texans are arguably just flat-out better teams. Rams will be better than people think.
Personally, I believe Williams and the Bears are a bit over hyped. Odunze is a rookie. Allen and Moore, I don't think either one is a wr1. Just my thoughts....
Lol
First half of the season is favorable for the Steelers and very key they are .500 or above at bye week. The second half of the season especially early with 4 divisional games early will be tough. But if they win out in that early stretch theyll be good.
As a ravens fan the Steelers will be fine. They’ll win 6 or 7 of their first nine and they’ll split the back half of the season. That’ll put them around 10 or 11 wins they’ll be fine
The Steelers schedule is tough but let’s not act like this is 2018 deshaun Watson & like the Steelers don’t always play Lamar well
The Steelers can go 7-2 with that schedule through Week 10.
As hard as the end is, the beginning is just as easy
They'll need to go 7-2 to pull 9 wins this season
Tomlin "almost as good as Sean Payton" ? Colinoscopy dont see too well...
What has Tomlin done that makes him so much better?
Chargers have 3 AFC North matchups in a 4 week span which will be tough and that week 1-week 4 stretch can be tricky for em because theyll play only one bad team on paper so far in Carolina. 2 divisional games against LV(My Squad and)which is damn near a road game for em and KC who will most likely beat them unless Herbert goes crazy. Pittsburgh on the road aint a cake walk either especially when the weather is still good which can benefit the Chargers to but I dont see a W for em there either.
Lmaooo why tf is bro still sky high on Deshaun Watson ?
I didn't care for sean payten as a analyst....Tomlin has a good personality im sure he would do great
I’m a Niners fan. I really feel like this Super Bowl loss was a back breaker. I think that’s a good thing and a bad thing. I don’t know how good we will be during the regular season as we will definitely have a severe hangover. However come the playoffs, tell me you want to face them at all. They looked terrible all last January and sleep walked their way to a three point lead in OT with an opportunity to win the Super Bowl.
As a 49er fan how come KC doesn't have a hangover are they immune to it no more excuses this year smh
@@roemellobell it helps they keep winning the SB. The season after they lost to the Bucs, they didn’t make the SB
@@y0_adrian IT also helps they have Mahomes.
Sorry.
The word is losers.
The Niners have lost more championship games (SB & Conf. combined) than any team in NFL history. They are one more SB loss in tying the Bills & Vikings with 4 consecutive Super Bowl losses. What is worse, they have destroyed the glorious legacy of Bill Walsh. They are bad for The Collective Soul of The Bay Area.
@@roemellobell
I think psychology the Niners players are now saying, What’s the point? We will lose anyway. While the Chiefs believe. human nature
Didn’t he pick the Rams to win the NFC West but the Niners are the team to beat 😂😂 let’s just pick every team you can’t be wrong
He picked the Seahawks last year 😂
Patriots won’t have an elite defense?
Colleges does not realize that AFC North ball is different. All of those games in that division are always post with the Steelers and Steelers won almost all of their divisional games last year.
Yeah, Yeah Colin you know everything
If the Steelers run the ball, they win division - period.
We need 2004 football here, not 2017
Don't think I've ever seen such a ridiculously backloaded division schedule before
We are good 👍 What looks difficult could turn out to be the best 👌
steelers will lose some inexplicable games to bad teams early in the season and then go on a winning streak at the back end of the schedule because that is steelers football 😂
They play those teams every year afc north is always top 2 or 3 division. There are only 2 games per yearthat are scheduled based on last years record.
The Steelers back end is tough but we have a young team we’ll be ok
The last time the Steelers had the hardest schedule in the league they won the Super Bowl in 2008. Not saying they will this year but having the hardest schedule is overblown
Tomlinson gets 7 8 wins 1st half an that snowball starts rolling
8:13 texans will definitely have a great defense if not elite, top 10 for sure.
Everything based on last year. Remember how the Texans were predicted to win only 4 games last year? Or how about Tampa. 6wins and no playoffs. It’s all guessing.
Collin better get his facts straight about the colts, we blew out the Texans with AR and lost with a backup qb to go to the playoffs last week of the season
The Bears will only be competitive if Bagent is starting. You THINK Pittsburgh will have a losing season....they WOULDN'T if they had kept Mason Rudolph. Ending with Mar-Mar twice is actually a BENEFIT.
I did notice the 49ers play both th Bills & KC after their bye’s. Thats pretty ridiculous.
They really want Purdy out of the conversation.
It’s all fun and games until TN puts 40 points on them.
So when he doesn’t have a losing season I wonder if Colin will finally give Mike his props
Anyone wanna bet that the Steelers finish with a winner record?
This man’s takes are always jokes 😂😂😂
I’m sure they say there and said let’s make some team schedules easy and some hard. We all know AI is running the NFL scheduling job now 😂
Bengals fan but know better than to ever count out the Steelers
If Caleb Williams played anywhere besides USC, no one would care about him.
Media loves their LA college.
DeShawn Watson is not a first name only basis quarterback 😂
Guess he forgot what the Raiders did to the Chargers last year... Also, to say the Texans and Rams aren't going to be tough for the Bears seems pretty misinformed as well.
Guess you forgot the raiders played against a back up QB and terrible coach
@@stephenash7018 we had a rookie QB and interim head coach....
@@raidergliss1978 And Herbert and Harbaugh are going to mop the floor with both of them week 1.

BEAR DOWN
Thats violation
Can't wait till steelers go 10-7 and I dont hear a word from colin how he was wrong lol never seen a closeted steelers hater like cowherd🤡🤡🤡
You will put some respect on the Raiders this season Collin
bears not getting a single divisional game until week 11 is such trash
I am not super high on Wilson or Fields as the PIT QB, but i would easily put PIT at probably 10-11 wins. I am a Steelers fan that watched the team last year play badly on offense and win 10 games and have 5 wins in division. A great draft with what we would hope is a good offensive coordinator and what should be 2 good to possibly very good QBs, and I'm supposed to believe they will be under .500? I think their is a lot of disrespect being put on the Steelers.
Idk about Steelers being
@@HalooINC yea im not expecting Arthur Smith to be like a top 5 coordinator, but his concepts at least had some life to them in Atlanta compared to Canada. Atlanta's offensive players werent great, but i liked some of their calls and of course his league leading year in Tennessee was great. Im not expecting 5000 yards and 35-40 touchdowns across our 2 QBs at all. Im just thinking way less 3 and outs and maybe some sustained drives with some RPOs or play action leading to far more scoring. The Steelers were awful pointing points on the board the last 3 years. Im hoping the moves made in free agency and the draft really bolster the offense. Our secondary isnt amazing and the run defense had alot to be desired at the end of the year, but the defense is usually solid so improving the offense i believe will go a long way in making this team viable late as compared to the last 4 to 5 years.
They want to get Tomlin out of there 😂 prove them wrong brother
Well Tomlin does suck
Chicago 2-4 at bye week. I honestly only see them beating Titans and Panthers, but even the week 1 matchup can be a loss.
I feel like the bears are more talent than the colts and rams those are toss ups... it's also a toss up against the Texans.
Also Colts don't have a good passing game, but they do have a lethal running game . It's not like the bears can't just load up the box with their number 1 rush defense.
Pittsburgh seems to play better when there are underestimated
Steelers went 5-1 in that division last year.
Against backups and the Ravens dropping three TDs that first game
@@Rynos8771 if you don’t wanna count the last game, then they went 4 -1. 🤷🏾
