Quote:You'd be surprised although you do bring up excellent points.

 

Living in Western Maryland, smack dab in the middle of Redskins, Ravens and Steelers countries I can tell you that Steelers fans who are old enough to remember the AFC Central do still consider us something of a rival and they rarely, if ever, look at us on their schedule as a gimme win no matter how bad we may be. Needless to say, I count a fair number of die hard Steelers fans as friends and nearly all of them look forward to the games we play and, more importantly, seem to genuinely want us to do do well outside of when we play them.
