Have a day, KP.

Have a day.

No better day than today to start the legend.

Just saw this post game comment from MT after the Miami loss concerning the dropped interceptions:
"We thought going in we would get our hands on some balls, potentially in play."

I’ll be rooting for the Steelers by carving up some pumpkins during the game.

Seems fitting!

Go Kenny!

Fire Canada at the half!

I am embracing the suck. Would rather bottom out with the chance to be a real contender instead of stick around in limbo.

Here We Go Steelers.....

Steelers all the way!

Steelers will win by the slimmest margin and shock the Eagles. Eagles are too distracted. :shock:

Steelers 17
Eagles 16
Secure NHALS early and then go deep into the PLAYOFFS. :D :D :D

If I had any hope Tomlin could rebuild this team and do something with it, then yeah...

Fortunately, I don't think I need to root for Tomlin to fail. I think that's already happening, and I just need to prepare myself to accept the suck.

Would be nice to see some glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel. Maybe EMR serving a public notice of a seat warming. But I don't think that happens.

This is exactly the kind of game where we expect a bloodbath and the Steelers surprise us with a win....... of course I thought the same thing when we played the Bills and we know how that turned out so maybe the Halloween bloodbath is in the cards.

Either way, they are still and will always be my team!!

Run up the middle on first down.

That's new.

hmmm, that "highest YPA for a rookie QB" is awfully close to Ben, whom of course rarely threw the ball in the second half

Well, there's sack #1 the first time we're in obvious passing situation.

PHI abuses our pass pro every time we play them.

Ben had a real coach and a loaded supporting cast tho.

At least with teams now circling PIT as a mini-bye week, that gives us a theoretical chance to be competitive...

Still love the dive up the middle to Najee on first down.

Had to be working on that one all week in preparation for today's game.

Ok…we ran on first down.

I’m keeping track.

I thought it was funny to point that out. Looked it up and it has to be just barely more than Ben.

And it's a very different league today than 18 years ago.

Yeah it’s that dumbfuck of a coach that you love Mike Tomlin. That’s what needs to change

His YPA is 5.8…Ben’s was close to 9.

That’s the more important stat.

True. Ben's rating was also like 98.7 vs... 66

The DC looks young enough to be Tomlin's son and schools the Steelers O and holds them to negative yds on 1st drive.
