JuJu OUT vs Buffalo

JuJu got another boo boo

Reaggravated his knee injury and will be OUT for this key "playoff" game vs Buffalo. Need the other WRs to step up again versus an elite defense in the BIlls.

Re: Crazy opinion, but we are BETTER without Conner and JuJu

I’m sure it has nothing to do with playing 1, 3, and 6 win teams the past few weeks. Or replacing the QB who looked she’ll shocked for the last month, Or perhaps guys have stepped up in their absence (Johnson, Washington, Edmunds, Snell and Samuels) and we have found some nice fill-in guys in Whyte...

Crazy opinion, but we are BETTER without Conner and JuJu

In the recent games without Conner and Juju the team has been playing better...running the ball better...catching the ball better...and having fewer turnovers. Coincidence? Note I think Conner is basically a JAG at this point. JuJu still has potential to be a great WR but already I see DJ surpassing...

What do we do with Rudolph?

If Ben comes back next year Duck should be QB2. Rudolph isn't going to be content to be QB3 and should get a shot to compete somewhere. Say a team offers a 5th round pick....I say we take it.

Beat the 49ers, cementing their status as the #1 team in the NFL. They will win the Super Bowl this year. Harbaugh wins COTY. Lamar Jackson wins MVP. But hey, at least we can keep Tomlin's 'no losing seasons' streak alive.... :lol:

Re: Ravens will own the AFCN for the next decade

NFL teams can't succeed long term with these hs/college offenses. The Gayvens will be back to sucking cocks on Sundays soon enough. I fully expect the 49ers to kick the snot out of the Ravens. No coaching advantage for Harbaugh, and SF has more talent on the field. Good matchup, though. And what wi...

Why not Harbaugh for Coach of the Year?

I think he deserves it more for guiding the Ravens to a 14-2 record more than Tomlin guiding the Steelers to a 7-9 or 8-8 season.

Lamar Jackson will win MVP this year, and I'll be rooting for the Ravens as they knock off the Pats in Fox Boro.

The Steelers will suck, but at least the Patriots won't be winning any more Super Bowls

to this shitstorm. Ravens are set up to dominate the AFCN (and probably the AFC) for the next decade. Browns are absolutely loaded with talent. Steelers are close to being peers with the Bengals who are in full rebuild mode. I predict Ben hangs it up after this year, Tomlin and KC follow shortly the...

Re: For EVERYONE slamming Mason Rudolph!

The more of Rudolph I see the more he reminds me of a shitter version of Joe Flacco. Big, close to zero mobility and pocket awareness, heaves a good long ball and checks down a lot. Lacks accuracy and touch on intermediate throws. Flacco did win a SB MVP, but he needs a lot of help from his supporti...

Unfortunately the L still counts even if you have lots of injuries. And players are judged based on the results on the field. You don't get a pass on your performance because your teammates got hurt.

Re: the steelers staff taken a step back.

If you want to take what I said to the extreme then sure. 8-8 this year given what's unfolded is a pretty good result in context. We've gone 8-8 with better teams.

so basically Garrett only got 3 More game for using a Helmet as a weapon than Pouncey who kicked someone.
Resign Moncrief and put him on D as a CB. In 2 weeks send him on a corner blitz where he rips off Mayfield's helmet and bashes him with it. Then we can release him ;)
