2016 Season Halftime Report

We are officially half way through the 2016 NFL season... so with a 4-4 record where do the Steeler's stand for the rest of the season?  It's clear that Steeler fans across the nation are feeling a little differently about where the team stands now.  The first four dominating weeks of the season, hopes were high for this Super Bowl contending team, topping the AFC North division with ease.  Fast forward and now the team is tied with the Baltimore Ravens.
The offense has been strong, but injuries have hindered their full potential often leaving the dirty work to the defense.  It was clear that the defense was the only reason that the team had a chance to comeback at the very end.  Playing conservatively with Ben's knee injury, and bad coaching calls did not help much either.
So here we are 4-4 looking onto the second half of the season.  Steelers are known for cranking the intensity up for a post season surge, and that's clearly what I am hoping for.  Soon the team will gain players such as Ladarius Greene, Bud Dupree and Senquez Golson which will add important threats to both side of the ball.  What do you predict for the remainder of the season?  Will the Steelers prevail, or will they sink?
