  1. Incestuous idiots who don't care about football discussions . Whereas over here, we accommodate (some we keep around as court jesters) posters from other fanbases @PatsFanNH @Zerovoltz @FilthyBeast @Airseven
  2. Shout-out to @4merper4mer who had correctly judged JJ when he was on the market and few in here were clamoring to get him
  3. Or play the field position game hoping the other team turns the ball while backed near their own EZ. I bet both teams will go extra hard to cause fumbles inside the 20 or 30 yard line. It may risk a missed tackle but the payoff could be a change of possession. For Tomlin, this is the more likely path to success than trusting Rudolph to make the right decision and throws.
  4. Not quite the point of your post but there are some beautiful roads that take you through places like Warren, PA; Jamestown and to Buffalo. Those roads will be more treacherous now but fun to drive in Fall.
  5. I can see how the constant badgering about his turnovers affects the voters. Imo, the bigger mistake/joke/travesty is Ed Oliver not making the first team.
  6. I also agree that the #1 pick should be used on a QB. Else, just in the top 10, there are teams who need a QB and will give a king's ransom for the #1 pick - Commanders, Patriots, Giants, Falcons.
  7. They have become better and better as this and the other thread has gone on.
  8. Quick release passes , mix of runs (Cook, Fournette, Allen). I see a lot of Kincaid and Shakir success here
  9. Bills 23 Steelers 17 In another free stay-at-home cardio stress test
  10. @ganesh is happy about the wording of this announcement. 🙂
  11. (Username is appropriate) Heck we fans don't know what we are going to get and yet we watch with keen anticipation
  12. Those are good points. To invest the #1 in a QB, they have to be absolutely convinced that he is worth it (and do the e v a l like the org did for Trubisky). The available slate of HC candidates and the demand could have influenced their decision to keep Eberflus. They must have thought "omg we could end up with bottom of the barrel choices and end up in a worse situation out of desperation"
  13. If the Bears aren't totally sold on Fields, they should draft a QB with the top pick. Doubling down is better than hitching the entire wagon to Fields and missing on a rare chance of drafting #1
  14. Makes for better headlines. I know where you are coming from - in a corporate environment, mutual separation is the standard statement.
  15. Imo, Vrabel will go to a team which already has a high potential QB or in position to draft one high. He will not make the same mistake of rotating cast away QBs.
  16. That he was not selected for the ProBowl loudly and definitively speaks to the process of selection. Utter trash.
  17. When I saw his passes in a couple of games, they looked lazy and wobbly to me. Dude had a strong arm when he came into the NFL but in games this year, it looked average to weak. But now that you said it, I went looking https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/how-the-steelers-mason-rudolph-has-completely-turned-around-the-offense-kept-pittsburgh-in-the-playoff-race/ "Rudolph throws deep with a moon-ball style, giving his receivers plenty of time to field the football and adjust to it before making a play. He understands with that high-arcing trajectory that the ball has to be thrown early in the down to avoid safeties ranging to help the corner. "
  18. With Rudolph throwing and 30-50 mph winds, there is no need to defend the perimeters or the medium to deep zones. Just stack the box and bring up a safety. I am having visions of Rudolph attempting a medium depth pass and the wind taking it for a ride. The trajectory of that ball will be quite amusing
  19. I speculate that Vrabel becoming available will accelerate Kraft's decision regarding BB. If Kraft was on the fence, he needs to make up his mind quickly. Vrabel is the best candidate available and should prefer a Pats job due to his history
  20. Quite the score prediction if FGs wont be attempted.
  21. No way Belichick goes to work for an ego maniac like Jerry Jones
  22. I agree. I have been anticipating him having a terrible game and the WC one may be it. Maybe I should hope for the Bills running into the Browns so we can beat the snot out of him
  23. Harris will have to be contained as well as protecting against any big plays by Pickens. But I am gaining much confidence in McD's defensive schemes and am not too worried about the Steelers offense scoring too many points. Understood about their D - that is cause for concern. If there is bad weather, Tomlin may go the Belichick route and run 50 times Get well soon, both of you
  24. Bummer. Playing this out now and based on my recent experience, you should see symptoms for 3 days and then start recovering. Then you should be testing negative by Friday. I understand you being respectful of your friends' health, but you should be still okay to see the game live. No? Granted it would be much more fun to laugh at your Steelers friends as their team is getting trampled ( I really think this will be a blowout unless the weather forces teams to be conservative in the passing game)
