Let's start fast, drop 30+ points on these Panthers and unleash the D.
A pick 6 from our guys to put the game away and watch Cam crumble and pout!!!!!
I know I know, we'll probably lose 41-17.

Is this the only Thursday night game thus far to feature two teams with winning records?
Steelers need to do something they haven’t done in a long time; they need to start winning more at home. Every damm year the Pats either are perfect at home or drop a game to a legit team, thats it.
Start winning for the home crowd and the rest will follow. Go Lers’!

Ben said on Tuesday and said the game plan was to use a lot of no huddle. Only the Steelers are dumb enough to always tell people what is what days before a game. We always do stupid shit. Players with up in the air status due to injury we tell the team during our bye week they will be out the next game. Playing on a short week we decide on Tuesday to announce hurry up and no huddle will be part of the game plan early in the game. I am sometimes surprised we don't fax or email the game plan to the opponent.

James Jones claims Steelers get the brakes beat off them. Says Conner won't get 50 yds rushing.

Let's hope he is just as useful as an analyst as he was a WR.

I’d also like to send a pregame FUCK YOU to the asshole that shot up the Tree of Life two weeks ago and another FUCK YOU to the asshole that shot up the Boarderline Bar & Grill in Thousand Oaks last night.

Anybody know if this is actually going to be aired on amazon prime?
They had the icon in previous weeks and didn't broadcast it. Can't find confirmation online.

Game has been on amazon prime all weeks but the first. I have used it at work for all the games from week 2 forward.
EDIT: only 11 games on amazon this year.

Duh. I already have an account. They are only airing 11 games, and two or three I've tried watching were unavailable. Something about early season games not being aired?
But thanks for the . . .suggestion?

THURSDAY, NOV. 8
Pittsburgh Steelers 34, Carolina Panthers 24
8:20 p.m. ET (FOX/NFL Network/Prime Video) | Heinz Field (Pittsburgh)
I don't like the Panthers on a short week. Carolina darn near gave up a 35-7 lead last week at home to Ryan Fitzpatrick. Ben Roethlisberger threw effectively in Baltimore, despite the absence of massive numbers. Also worth noting: Pittsburgh posted 395 yards of offense against the top-ranked defense in the league. Unfortunately, Ron Rivera's defense has given up a lot of scores through the air (tied for the eighth-most passing touchdowns allowed), but the unit has managed to compensate for that by forcing its fair share of takeaways (15). If Carolina can pull a few interceptions out of the bag against Roethlisberger, the Panthers should be OK. That's because Carolina has been strong against the run all year -- that is to say, James Conner is not likely to go off this week. Then again, Conner is on pace for over 2,000 scrimmage yards and 20 touchdowns.

Glad to see Hunter not active. Hopefully that means Washington is getting better as opposed to the statement made on the broadcast that they were going to swap game to game until one of the 2 grabs the position.

Most important factor this evening?
Cotch Watch is the receivers coach for Carolina.
Color me worried.

Maybe since McDonald is playing before Aikman he will want to show off since Aikmen snubbed him on the wristband. It would be really great to watch him ragdoll some of the Carolina defenders.

Might be a dumb question but don't we actually want Cam Newton carrying the football and taking hits as opposed to keying on him and letting McCaffrey run in straight lines for 10 yards before he has to make any moves?
