Not even Thanksgiving and the AFCN is lost

Post by TimmayLake » Mon Nov 24, 2025 12:39 am

As of today the Ravens have retaken 1st place in the AFCN and they're not going to relinquish it.

NHALS is in real danger. Tomlin must be sweating into his gravy...

You can see it from how definitive he was in saying that Rodgers would play next week. Is a week really going to change anything about that injury from a risk standpoint? If he falls on it next week, he's probably just as likely to fuck it up and be lost for the season as he was today. If the correct decision was to sit him today, it's the correct decision next week, as well.

Unless you are a desperate fraud hack.

I knew with 100% certainty when we were sitting at 4-1 and the talking heads announced us division champs while the Ravens were at 1-4 or 1-5 that they would retake the division.

That was easy fucking money.

Going to be funny when the Bengals pass us too.

I hope we lose both games against the Ravens and finish nowhere close to 1st place.
Jibba Jabber’s offense hasn’t scored more than 7 1st quarter points in 88 consecutive games. An NFL record by far. A historic amount of “easin in”. We are lucky to have him.

Loved the 0-4 run last year to let the Ravens blast past them as well.

As much as Mike Tomlin is a stupid fuck, and Arthur smith runs a Stone Age offense, they still have a chance to win the norf.

Gotta root like hell with the bengsls on Thursday night, so now T Higgins is in concussion protocol and unlikely to play

I think it's going to come down to whether the Steelers can beat the ravens twice, which is unlikely. if bangles beat the ravens once the ravens lose at Green Bay, and Steelers beat Buffalo on Sunday, and even the loss at Baltimore might keep them in contention for the final Sunday

I’m the only one here who put $2000 on the Ravens at that exact point. :lol:

That’s awesome. What were the odds ?

Wasn't there like a single week in which the Vegas odds didn't favor Baltimore? The average bettor is on to Tomlin.

In Tomlin’s defense he was saying that Roger’s missed a lot of work last week and that is why he couldn’t play.

What a joke.

The 40 year old HOF QB couldn’t be ready for the Bears with only a walk through on Saturday? Give me a break.

The press should be all over his ass. What can Mike do? Ban you from the locker room and then you have to write articles without Tomlin’s BS talking points? The articles are so boring at this point who cares. I could work for the PG from here in VA covering the Steelers. What a joke giving this clown a free ride.

This team is garbage and the Bears are garbage. Should have let Tomlin have it on the podium.

Frazier said he didn't know who was starting until Sunday.
Seriously, your CENTER doesn't know who is going to be playing? I get that maybe the defense doesn't need to know, but what in the fuck...

My theory is Rodgers was never going to play, but Tomlin wanted to keep CHI guessing. But in order to not get dinged with a rules violation, they had to play games.

Because, reportedly, Rodgers went out and walked around the field once, then declared himself out. Not simulated hand-offs and taking snaps under center and decided it was too painful, WALKED around the field and flipped off a few people (reportedly with his RIGHT hand). That seems....a little fishy.

I’d love to know what Rodgers is thinking about right now. I also would like to hear what Rodgers really thinks of the great leader of men, Mike Tomlin.

I hope the Steelers lose out. I know they won’t, but I really want to see the narrative on Tomlin flip.

I want this fraud to lose his Canton shine. The longer he sticks around, the worse his case becomes.

Ya, they still have a shot at the division. :lol: :lol: :lol:

They have a much greater chance of finishing third than they doing finishing 1st.

Your optimism is notable.

It’s also HIGHLY delusional. This team & staff are not capable of making a run.

No way, no how.

Wouldn't be the first time I've been delusional about the Steelers, '95. They still have a shot, but as I've noted in another OP, they also have a shot at losing out.

They have a shot on paper. Thats it. They don’t realistically have a shot.

There was a time when this team, its coaches, and the players had pride. Not any more.

Paycheck stealers and stat whores. That’s all they are.

We didn’t count the 2005 squad out when they fell to 7-5
for a reason.

These current players are going through the motions.

It’s why I want them embarrassed and embarrassed badly.

Jibbs, Scam, TJ, Dunce.

The only one that legitimately deserves his money is Boz.
