Who is your other tackle in this scenario? 

Lundt has to be the RT for this game. 

[Bills!Win!]

Remember when the Bengals were down 3 offensive linemen and were going to play in bad conditions?

If the field conditions are poor as some suggest they will be, that would favor us in my eyes because it should slow down the pass rush and allow Josh to have more time to operate

Is it strange to anyone that the NFL allows the Steelers to have Pitt play the day before games are played on a grass field in late November 🤷🏻‍♂️

… nope, can’t recall any game like that!

Sounds like this is a game, I'll wait to watch afterwards to see if they win or not. I'm not (and shouldn't for my mental health) sit through another Houston Texans type cluster...

Going to be a tough watch. Don’t think the Steelers are a monster given Watt, Highsmith and Herbig are not playing lights out nor are they playing on the Anderson/Hunter level but without both starting offensive tackles, it might be an extremely tough day. 
 

Not saying we don’t have a chance but this is going to be a game they realistically have to execute flawlessly on offense to walk away with a win @ Heinz field. 
 

This, to me, is going to showcase whether or not Brady can cut the mustard or should be gone next year. A real litmus test for how he’s able to scheme.

If Grable is active i think it will be him

Weather is going be nasty now here Sunday afternoon.

Pittsburgh runs the dink and dunk passing game pretty good.  They are #1 in yac and the Bills tackle poorly.  I don’t see how sloppy field conditions would favor us

That division will probably be won with a 9-8 record. Ravens can afford to lose two more games and still win the division in all likelihood. 

 

That's why if the Bengals win their next game, the game against us, they will probably be the favorite to win the division with how easy the rest of their schedule is. Will just come down to beating the Ravens once again. 

 

For us it just sucks basically having zero opportunity to win the division. 

At the same time, we have a better chance of making the playoffs as a whole. Yeah it sucks not winning the division but it sucks more not making the playoffs at all. I’m not sure if a second team comes from that division at all.

Maybe the college teams won't be allowed to wear cleats. Real men would play barefoot. Mack Hollins anyone?

[EssexBill]

I want to see us throw downfield to Shakir again, seems like it hardly ever happens now and he’s been marginalized to being the guy who takes the sideways screens and not much else. 
 

The catch he made against KC I think last year when he got hammered as soon as he caught it prompting the Jim Nantz blasted in the backside comment, more of that please, he’s able to get open if Brady would just use him better

Unfortunately, he just needs to hand the ball off.

It’s go time.  Defense has to step up, tackle better, and get the run game slowed down.  Rogers doesn’t scare me at all.  Offense has to protect better, the backup tackles need to step up, and Brady needs to earn his paycheck this week.

That's about it, exactly as you say!

where are you getting that?  I see rain and snow-- a little in AM-- but just cloudy at game time with fairly light winds.  Accuweather and Weather channel say same thing.

They had a decent defense to go with the injured offense.  We don't.

My dad does that nowadays. He often won’t even watch the games.  If he does watch live and the game starts turning in a bad direction he immediately turns it off. He says it’s for mental health reasons.
