To be fair, Leftwich was once a backup to Ben and serviceable.

But that's it. Does Rudy ever practice? I seriously think he's not practicing, he looks like he's never played the game of football. What a goofball.
I don't think it's a coincidence that the best back ups are failed starters. With Landry Jones and Rudolph, the Steelers tried to draft and develop a BU QB. That's just not gonna work - not enough reps for dudes to learn and get better (even if they have the talent - not saying Jones or Rudolph do)

Are the Jets continually poor at drafting QB talent, or do the QBs fail because they are drafted by the Jets?

The latter, I would say. And, of course, add terrible OL.

Even the Chargers can't blow a 16 point lead with 10 mins to go, right?

Tons of Bungling by the Bungles. Even the refs, bungling.

Why did the refs let that play continue if it was against the offense? Buro could have gotten injured for nothing.

They score 41 and then give up 41 next week. How are those non-Steelers aspirations treating ya, Burrow?

Depends on how you look at it. You can root for KC to knock Denver below Steelers but I personally am rooting for Denver—want LAC to win division so if Steelers win a first playoff they could play at LA instead of at KC

Teddy Bridgewater is one of the worst QBs I have ever seen, physically and mentally.

How he can bounce around is good though, guy excels at getting gigs.

Belichick called one pass in the first half and leads 11-7. I still hate the Pats even without Brady.

I like the Bills coach. He has that Cowher vibe on the sideline.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

I kinda wish Tomlin was more animated on the sidelines. I miss the chin.

Same. Cowher always got me fired up. Made watching games that much more fun. Plus I like a coach that gets up in guy's grills when their fucking up.

I’ve seen this game earlier this year. It was called Illinois vs Penn State last time.

Pats aren’t that great. Buffalo choked. How many times in Ben’s 18 year career did he have two drives inside the redzone in the 4th qtr to take the lead and fail both times? I wager it never happened. Josh Allen is overrated. Matt Jones completed 2 passes and won.

I'm sitting here with Allen on my fantasy team really needing him to do something and sweating a lot more than I should have to. I'm going to win anyway, but it's close and it should have been running away.
