So is Wilson. Fields is younger and more athletic. He was their best option this year

On 4th down in the 4th quarter you gotta sell out bro. You can't just accept it and go out of bounds. Dive, reach, do all you possibly can. Doesn't matter if you end up fumbling. You gotta do all you can to try to get to those sticks.

Speaking of helicopters... the Chinooks came over LOW today PXL_20250112_192313840.TS.mp4

I really thought the Steelers should've stuck it out with Fields. He wasn't playing great but they were winning. Just let him keep getting more comfortable in the offense.

I didn't. I expected the whole game to look like what the second half has looked like.

The Bills have opened up a can of whoop ass now. At least the Broncos made it interesting for a half. That's honestly more than I expected.

I like what I've seen out of Canales so far. The team didn't quit on him and a big part of Bryce's improvement after coming back from the benching was Canales adapting his play calling to maximize Bryce's strengths. That's the next step for Bryce. Show that you can keep up the high level of play after future opponents have an entire off-season to breakdown the tape of your improved play.

Holy poo. What a throw and catch.

The Jets might be in a the same boat Tepper found himself in where their wish list kinda has to start where everyone else's ends. If someone has another option they're probably gonna take the other option.

That's still a massive loss of draft capital. In the 1st round alone, the value pick differential going off of the standard chart (which is a rough guideline to be fair) dropping from #1 to #4 is the equivalent of the #12 overall pick.

Oh yeah, I forgot that Mayo got himself poo canned for blowing that. LOL

I guess it comes down to his opinion of Williams and maybe Ward and/or Sanders in the draft and what Vegas is committed to doing. With NE sitting at #1 and not needing a QB that pick could probably be had. They'll want to replicate the Bryce trade if they move. Can't see that happening but NE has a ton of holes and they should probably entertain moving down if there's a market for the pick.

Yeah, I wasn't all that high on Nix as a prospect but there's no doubting Sean Payton's offensive coaching chops at this point. Gotta remember, Drew Brees wasn't Drew Brees until Sean Payton got a hold of him. He was more in the "solid starter" type category before Payton turned him into an all-time great.

Nix and Penix both have shown way more arm talent on their rookie seasons than I thought they had based on their college play. Seems like the Bills might have come into this one a little too cocky. We'll see how they respond to an early punch in the nose.

Three INTs in the entire regular season, four yesterday. Oh wee mayne.

Say what? The two best current NFL WRs are both recently out of LSU.

I don't give a rat's ass about either team and I'm not a sports bettor. I just want to see good, competitive football.

I'm glad the Steelers finally showed up. Well, their offense anyway. Maybe their D will follow suit now.

The Steelers decided to finally show up.

Maybe, but when is the last time KC dog walked anyone? They've been barely winning all year long.

No, just the generic question of whether you'd rather miss the playoffs or make them and then just get flat out embarrassed like this. I honestly think I'd rather just miss. Now obviously completely sucking sucks, but there's also the possibility of narrowly kissing the playoffs like the Falcons did. That sucks too but getting excited to see your team in the playoffs and then them not showing up like this... ugh.

I don't think anything about this points to a bright future for the Steelers.

That receiver needs to be smart enough to get out of bounds there. Getting out of bounds is way more valuable than a couple more yards.

There's some mediocre teams with bloated records this year because there's so many truly BAD teams. We've seen three of them tonight.
