Only 3 games: Patriots, @Ravens, Cowboys

If they don't have Heyward, Williams, Shazier back by Dallas, Zeke will be ahead of Eric Dickerson's pace

Landry Jones' definition of "fine" is not falling on his face jogging onto the field.

Exactly what we talked about last week. On the road, against a shit opponant that isnt a rival has been an issue. Just do not have the mentality to be able to show up and do their job and take care of teams they should. That is a leadership problem.


I am happy that I worked 25 hours over the weekend and didnt get to see that abortion.

POssible 4-6 weeks now for BR, although I will believe it when I see it. Bet the NFL hated to see this happen for this weeks matchup.

Flacco has been hurting this week and may miss, bengals have a bad record and the browns, well, are the browns so the AFC Central, Eh I mean north, could be won at 9-7 this year.

Since about 1994 I don't think my 3 teams from 3 different levels (high school, college, Steelers) have all lost in the same weekend but about 4 or 5 times....my high school team played Winton Woods with 2 OSU recruits and lost, OSU fucking sucked and Steelers without Ben face the Patriots.

No, expected losses don't bother me unless the opponent is playing like piss and a chance is there. House money game.

OSU pissed me the hell off but I'm over it

Landry can make some throws but the int in the end zone....can't do that and beat Pats

I'm more concerned with 3 or 4 of best 5 defensive players out.

Ok, another defender pulling down 1 arm and no call. It's so fucking irritating. Should be a PI 100x out of 100. Steelers 0/2, OSU didn't get it last night.

Playing much better. I'm happy how they're playing. O-line and D-line much improved (Williams back helps a lot)

That Gronk TD was almost guaranteed. 4 plays earlier Nantz and Simms were talking about how quiet him and Bennett had been. Knew it was coming.

Enjoy seeing AB writhing in pain on the sideline

There's the defense I expected to see all game.

Need Cam Heyward! The only decent pass rusher on the team

I feel your pain ironman. Gronk and Brady on one fantasy team and Bennett on another. And Blount has two touchdowns :-(

That was the worst attempt at a hurry up I've ever seen. Referee waited 10 seconds to set ball and snap with 3 seconds lol and then he stares at his wrist band and snaps it with 2 seconds then they rush an absolutely impossible FG try.

Please end this game Tom.
