Wow, do we have the match up that you don’t want to see. I mean, sure, maybe OBJ will make some glorious catch. But, really, no one likes either team. Just look at this schmuck.
That’s a Jim Spanfeller-level punchable face.
Let’s talk about the Steelers first, though. I’m still not sure how they corralled in the egos of Antonio Brown and that dude who now plays RB for the Jets. Whatever his name is. He doesn’t matter anymore, now that we know that O-line was the real reason that running backs do well in the Steelers system. Good luck, Jets.
Tomlinson, who comes across like a real jackass in every interview he has ever done, going back to when he was 3 and someone asked him to sing the ABC’s, has done a fantastic job keeping this team on track. I would like to think that he would be nice to someone in his life. His wife? Mom? The sheep he drags to the bedroom and calls “Baker”? I don’t know who, but there has to be someone.
At QB, they have some putz who is just a putz. Middleman Putz might be his name. That’s how much I care. He’s serviceable, like a great many QBs you see in this league. That’s good enough.
The defense on this team is still tough. Not Patriots tough. Not Niners tough. Not Bills tough. But, definitely not a cake walk. That’s why they should win this game, and, also, because I like to hate on The Browns.
Now, let’s get to the part that is hard to talk about: Flaker Mayfield and the Brown turds.
They finally won last week! Yeah! 3 wins, baby. They are definitely going all the way. All the way to another top 10 draft pick, where they will probably draft a QB for when Mayfield becomes a backup on another team and fades into Oblivion. (Side note: I’m picking up Oblivion for the XB1 once I’m done playing Skyrim… again.)
But, last week was a fluke when you look at their season as a whole. OBJ had catches. Mayfield didn’t get intercepted (I would fact check that, but I don’t really want to). They stopped the run. Sort of, anyway, as the Bills should have ran it more, aside from Josh Allen.
This week, the Browns are going to have a hard time stopping the run. The Steelers aren’t scoring a ton of rushing TDs, but they know how to utilize the run game effectively. Kitchens doesn’t really garner a lot of surety as a head coach. He is going to have to play his linebackers in a manner that negates the run.
Since this is a rivalry game, expect a fun game to watch. Really, either team that loses is a win for us all.
“Fair weather fans are HILARIOUS to me…” – Emily Mayfield, wife of Baker, which means she made that choice voluntarily (that we know of), which should tell you everything you need to know about her
Still curious as to why the Browns are favored. They are the Browns, after all. Historical levels of losing that make Detroit fans jealous.
Talk about whatever below.
I see this morning that I turned off the game a little too early.
TAG!! I saw this live and it had to be reviewed for targeting. They didn’t call it on the field.
Should I get beer?
Of course. Make sure to drink it as well.
Cheers bro!!
I decided not to. I’ll be doing enough drinking come Saturday
Baker just tried to blame the media for making the Browns look like clowns?
THEN THEY SHOULDN’T HAVE RHYMED
Who has the helmet swing with the UK commentary??
My feed got badly unsynched. The commentary was about a minute ahead of the video.

90s bands: WHO YA GOT?
1) STP
2) Soundgarden
3) Alice in Chains
What say you?
Solid top 3
Dunno if it’s my top 3, more interested in the order.
I think I got 2,3,1
Correct.
3, 2, 1
Have no specific beef with that
1) Nirvana
2) Smashing Pumpkins
3) Pearl Jam
Honorable Mention: Sumblime and Radiohead
Replace STP with REM and I’m good.
Garrett said what he did was “out of character.”
Fuck yeah Gary Larson
DOINK!!
I LEARNED IT FROM YOU, DAD!!

I can do without the color commentary from some asshole on Twitter but it has the beginning of the fight.
Looks like Rudolph tried to take Garrett’s helmet off first.
Yeah, and at the end of the day (now, I guess) he’s lucky to be alive.
Indeed
Football is shitty, but fuck it, if it’s going to be brutal and kill its players early, then I don’t want rule and I want it to be violent and as awful as possible. Lawyerball where guys just happen to get injured and crippled all the time is fucking bullshit.
Nihilism isn’t an ethos? Fuck it, I forget stuff.
Second!
Connor McGregor is sickened by this disgusting display.
Old Mason was kind of the instigator there.
He was trying to rip off Garrets helmet first so….
Singing along badly to The Who, and trying to think of anyone I’ve sung along to more than Roger Daltrey. Maybe Robert Plant? Could it be Freddie Mercury? Michael Stipe? Let’s smoke a bowl and figure this out.
The ref didn’t throw his hat after he threw the flag. I expect better.
With all the punches, he would’ve thrown his flag, hat, beanbag, whistle, shirt, left shoe, right shoe, left sock, right sock and pants by the time they settled down.
So, he failed even worse than I said. Terrible.
“Touchdown Seahawks.”
Pouncey is ride or die. I can dig that.
It may have been the shock from the Spinal Trauma, but I just like how Mason Rudolph was just standing there next to the mosh pit not knowing what to do.
His name is Mason. He’s looking for a baggie of orange wedges at halftime.
Why didn’t they just end that at :08? I’m sure they’ve done it before. Either way that was a lot of fun.
Holy damn. What the hell happened?
Good old helmet swinging fist punching fracas
Just saw the helmet swing. I leave the room for 5 minutes! WTF started it?
You leaving the room. FEELING GOOD, ROOM LEAVER???

It will be on SportsCenter right now. I missed it too.
Oh, come on! They didn’t even bring Mayfield to take the knee? Wussies!
Being as how I kinda passed out for almost half the game, just want to see if JustStopDude is still amongst the living? Yes? Hello? Congrats to your guys, but can understand if you didn’t stay the course, shipmate…
I was going to go to bed but I think I’ll stick around for the post-game show and see if Joe Buck starts openly weeping at the horror of small children having witnesses while Troy tries to remember what happened to get Joe so upset.
No brawl between the coaches. Did not reach Mike Ditka / Forrest Gregg tier
Well, Tomlin’s a thug, so
And Ditka should be shot into the sun
The refs want everyone off the field to start the last snap. Tomlinson doesn’t get off the field even during play
On the bright side, the Bengals may be off the hook for Dirtiest Team Ever.
Nah, they got a Vontaze to go
I must have missed the part where Vontaze went Wack-a-Mole on an opposing QB.
Didn’t see it…doesn’t mean it didn’t happen
If Garrett had only hit a woman with that helmet he’d be back by Week 14.
This is terrible, and it not only is it correct, this will be an NFL during the off-season.
BANNER THIS MAN. Unfortunately.
While very much something the NFL would do, let’s maybe not run this one up the banner.
Proud night for #ThePauls franchise
No, really, all things considered
Why does anyone give a fuck? Pittsburgh isn’t going to score a 15 point TD.
RESPECT THE FUCKING SHIELD YOU REBELLIOS SHIRKADAY
