I'm no cowboy fan but loved seeing the seachickens lose at home.

...and my Steelers are sucking ass....

Seachickens? :klingon:

Gotta say, the Packers were impressive.

I hate them. That game was so painful. The Dolphins snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Ugh.

The Dolphins are a good team, solid from top to bottom (minus a consistently terrible O-line) but they just don't BELIEVE in themselves, and that leads to them choking in those big moments.
 
It all hinges on defense. The Seahawks have not gotten the turnovers, the bravado, and the big plays like last year. There was a near interception on the goal line that would have been returned a long way and could have made a difference in the Dallas game. Instead, it ended in a Dallas TD. Sherman? Stop making commercials! :p

I think it's wide open. A lot of the teams that were supposed to be good are not and vice versa. It's week to week. The Steelers were supposed to be back, but I live in Steeler country, and frankly, they do not have the talent. They'll get some wins, but it doesn't look good.
 
The Browns are just sad, might as well let that Manziel guy play, can't really get much worse anyway.

I know you made this post like a week ago, but the Browns are one of the best stories in the NFL right now. Hoyer has been pretty good and Manziel has barely been mentioned.

I think they have the talent on offense. No depth on defense and the injuries are tough.

Talk starting to brew about Tomlin being the problem.

Hoyer is playing great. They Browns are playing with the fire that my Steelers don't have.
 
Well I guess Jenkins decided last night that the best defensive strategy against the 49ers was to let the receivers run wild behind him....

Damn, am I sick of losing...

:scream:

Yeah, Tomlin's getting the blame (lack of intensity, same problems and excuses week after week, too easy going), and there are rumblings that it's really time for LeBeau to retire. I'm mixed on that, though, because LeBeau doesn't have a lot to work with, but there are other good young coaches behind him and Pitt has to score 30 to win at this point. When the Browns are able to run the ball all over Pitt, well, we haven't seen that in a long time. :p

I've seen the "Tomlin problems" for years now. Lack of discipline... penalties out the ass... turnovers, mismanaging the clock at the end of halves and games... and now, the inability of the Offense to adjust and score in the second half. Not sure why they brought him in. He was a defense guy and he can't hold a candle to Lebeau so exactly what does he bring to the table? I think ownership was being two politically correct. There were two coaches inhouse that should have been selected before hiring Tomlin. He's all sound-bite and no bark.

He was given a Cadillac and now it's a Ford Pinto.

I don't agree. The vast majority of head coaches hired by the Steelers were hired when they were under the age of 40, Rooney has repeatedly stated that he had interviewed other minority candidates before he hired Tomlin, Tomlin took the Steelers to the Super Bowl twice in three years, and still has a winning record.

He wasn't hired as a PC stunt, and he hasn't been retained as a PC stunt.

Thank you!

You do realize that there is only one reason that a person could possibly consider Tomlin's hiring to be a "PC move" and it's not his height, gender, age or shoe size?

Well, he's just not a very good coach.

I hope you aren't insinuating something.
When Tomlin was winning it was all about what a great coach he was, now that he is losing, it is all about race.

Yeah, I'm insinuating something.

Then you're a dumb ass.

Anyone that knows anything about the Steelers knows it wasn't all about Tomlin when they were winning.

Don't listen to ESPN.
