Or they could face the Colts, who they had to scramble to beat.

The Colts/Titans/Dolphins don’t bother me much (though they’d 100% lose to the Dolphins)...momentum and confidence most important right now. It’s 98% the offensive play calling too. I have a feeling that losing to the Browns would not be that much fun 😁.

If they call plays like they did for 4+ weeks...opponent won’t matter.

I'm hearing there's a good chance that Roethlisberger sits and the Browns face Mason Adolph. Also hearing a lot of Pittsburgh's defensive starters will rest along with Conner, Pouncey & Ebron.

Well, it is what it is. At 38 and 300 lbs the week off could help Ben. He hyperextended his knee and it certainly hasn’t helped anything. Connor been banged up for 2 months. Ebron is a favorite target for Ben (too much for my liking)...Pouncey is pretty needed and he’s been injured this year.

Steelers HAVE to have Watt, Ben, Johnson, Tuitt, Heyward, Hilton, Claypool to have a chance of winning the first playoff game....any one of those not available would be too much to overcome the way they play.

Sounds like the B team....I wish they had a true bye week during the season but everyone has dealt with Covid stuff

Kamara tests positive and close contact with other rb’s

Joe Haden tests positive and likely out 1st round of playoffs 


Browns practice site closed down 3x in last 4 days

Has 1 NFL player or coach been actually sick or just testing positive?

Been nice to not test 5x a day this last week.

Season has went fairly well and now watch the playoffs get eff’d up due to a Covid result. Watch Mahomes and Kelce be out vs Bills and then Packers a free be championship for golden boy Rogers

Myles Garrett said that he was very sick and is still struggling with the after effects.

Yeah, it fucked Garrett up. A few other guys too, but lesser known.

I'm hoping I'll get to have a celebratory Manhattan tonight when Adam Gase is fired. How many coaches get canned today?

Maybe beating the Browns saves him.

How was that catch not challenged?

Hilarious that the 6-10 Giants make the playoffs if Football Team loses tonight.

I’m glad no one team missed the playoffs due to the Texans secondary with 20 seconds left giving up a 55 yard bomb....which is literally the only thing you should be guarding against

That’s basically a 5th grade recess understanding of the game. Dumb as hell

Washington back-up QB throws a nice punt!

But he gets the ball back for another try on a Phil interception, but then fumbles the game away.
