His attempt was bent about 5 yards by the wind.
posted by Dr Winston O'BoogieBrowns were solid. Proud of Brissett - he's handling his business like a pro. Chubb was obviously great. Pickens catch in the first quarter was unbelievable. Glad to see the Steelers go home losers.
Browns were fairly decent ..........rest of post is accurate. Picken's catch is probably among the best of all-time.

I watched (cliff notes) the recap on Youtube. Pickens catch reminded me of the OBJ one hander when he was with the Giants.

That’s a perfect comparison. Unbelievable grab. Or as OBJ called it, “filthy”.

It was nice to have something to cheer for, other than how I got so ripped at a friend's football party that I'm still drunk and hoping no one is particularly caring about my office productivity today.
Sounds like Anthony Walker is done for the season (torn quad). Shame because he was playing at a top 3 LB level according to PFF.

It was. Still, I forgot just how unreal OBJ's catch was. He grabbed it like you would trying to throw the ball. Just seems impossible. Pickens was a more traditional one-handed grab by controlling the tip.
posted by iclfan2After Brissett missing some bad ones in the 1st game, he’s been solid the last two. Chubb is great. Defense and special teams need work. Missing 2 extra points already is absurd.
Kicking into that end of the field last night was nuts. Wind was swirling and in your face. Both kickers missed one on that end.
It was kind of nice to see the kickers struggle last night. Seems like half the league now has a kicker that can consistently bang it thru from 55. It's absolutely nuts. 50+ yard field goals used to be pretty rare.
Always nice to body bag the Steelers and their fake ass fans like Gut.
Sad part about this is, if the Browns could've just got average Brissett-like play from Mayfield last year they would've been a playoff team.

I honestly do not think his ego can handle average, don’t lose the game, type play. And that ultimately is what did him in, imo.

The Browns still suck. I just want Tomlin fired, because he sucks worse than Stefanski. So that game was a win for me.

But the Steelers suck worse. Browns are an average to above average team. Steelers are just BAD.
No Watt and that defense blows. Not a player on that roster, defensively, outside of Minkah & Watt I'd want and that includes over the hill Heyward.
Offense is a joke. O-Line blows. QB blows. Najee Harris is Trent Richardson 2.0 and the receivers can't separate to save their lives.
I'll enjoy this purgatory that Pittsburgh's going to deal with for a while because firing Tomlin isn't going to be that "quick fix" everyone's looking for. Can't put lipstick on a pig (cover up a below average roster). We've had to eat shit for a LONG time. Now it's your turn. Bon Appetit !!!

Remind me again - PIT was in the playoffs last year, was CLE? You ain't going this year, either. Your team might suck less than PIT. Good for you.
Other teams have turned it around in just 1-2 years. The problem is this team has slowly gotten worse every year under Tomlin. People talk about him going to the HOF, but he's a complete fraud that brings nothing to the job but bullshit cliches.
Yeah well both your teams look better than the bengals right now

Sure, other teams have turned it around in 1-2 years but not with garbage rosters like Pittsburghs. Colbert whiffed A LOT on his draft picks over the last few years. Their only saving grace is that they will have a ton of cap space next year and maybe Khan won't be as cheap as Colbert going after FA's.
Myles involved in a car accident. Hope he's ok..
His car is fucked. Rumors of a broken wrist, which would be a minor miracle. Minor, non-threatening life injuries have been confirmed for both him and passenger.
