Mediocre AFC...

Besides the Pats and Chiefs these teams are currently 2-2 the Ravens, Browns, Texans,Titans, Colts, Raiders and Chargers. The Bills are 3-1 but not very good at all. So the bottom line is win tomorrow night and pull within one game of both the Browns and Ravens for 1st place in the North with the Ravens coming in here next Sunday. We will know a lot about where things stand for this Steelers team a week from today so it’s gonna be interesting to see how these next 6 days or so play out with these two games with both the Bengals and Ravens.

 

Disagree on the Bills. That defense is for real without a doubt. Their issue currently is the status of Josh Allen. Without him, it is going to be tough sledding for the Bills.


I will say this. For the centennial celebration of the NFL, this parity is truly interesting. More so than I have seen in some time.

 

Bears might do some damage. Chiefs have no defense. Pats are pats. Cowboys have all 3 phases good except head coach, rams have no defense

 

AFC Championship is set in September already: Chiefs vs. Patriots

All other AFC teams are pretenders.

NFC is more complicated. Not sold on any NFC team.

 

Yep. Had Allen been playing at the end of the game today, might have been a different story. Pats were going 3 and out consistently.

 

Steelers at 0-3 can be 1 game back with a win vs. Bengals.

Mediocrity at it's best.

 

Yep lol

 

Steelers are just like Texans, Colts, Ravens, Titans, Chargers, Raiders, Bills... pretenders who won't compete with KC and NE.

 

Yeah that’s with a healthy Ben and brown though lol

now we are just a stat padder team lol

 

Just win the North... get a playoff home win in Wildcard round and get wiped out by KC or NE in divisional. Damn good successful season with Rudolph at QB.... and build around him for the future.

 

Agreed on both points.



Kansas City and New England are the heavyweights. Other teams are either too deficient offensively, defensively, lack the QB to get there, too many injuries, have checked out all together, a combination of the five or all five together. The NFC has been far more entertaining for me.


At first I thought it was Green Bay and the Rams. After what I just saw today, nope!! That all said, that conference is going to be very entertaining to watch!

 

The NFL is bad. They have a serious product quality issue and its only getting worse .

Kids dont play the game anymore and the sport has not caught on in other countries. Rule changes, bad officiating, bad play, and constant commercials make it nearly unwatchable. If I could buy NFL stock, I’d cash in my house and 401k to short this piece of crap.

 

It does not assist the fact that one of the NFL's franchises is blatantly tanking the same. The issue is not the tanking itself. The issue with tanking in the NFL is that, unlike the NHL and the MLB, the NFL has way too many variables for that player to be considered worth tanking for.



Tanking almost never works in the NFL. For that matter, it is ill advised. Even if it is a QB, there is still no guarantee they will succeed as that team's Front Office often falls short on what that QB needs; protection. Even then, little to no guarantee.

 

All teams in AFC North suck! Total crap show. Jags just won.

 

Denver’s Oline didn't let flacco get sacked once. Their Oline coach must know what he’s doing.

 

Munchak!

 

One of the KC and Pats will make the big game. They are well ahead of the rest barring injuries to Mahomes and Brady.

AFC North became very interesting after tonight’s game but I suspect the Steelers just don’t have the offensive nous to come out on top in the division. Again, injuries or lack there of will play a huge part.

 

What a loss he is to the Steelers. I thought the existing line would hold it together at least for this year but they have been struggling mightily. Perhaps they can improve as the year progresses.

 

Outside of the Patriots and Chiefs, I would say yes.
Patriots defense is crazy. Haven’t allowed a TD in 4 games.

I feel like Mahomes has the only chance to take down Brady

 

Then why do you bother to watch?

 

The Patriots have the inside track because the Chiefs have to travel there in December and try to win at Foxboro. That will be for the #1 seed which means the Patriots will be more than likely headed for the Super Bowl again.

 

The Bills scored a TD on them today.

 

You forgot to put the N after AFC.

 

If the Steelers were smart they’d offer Munchak whatever position and title he wanted to come back. But they are not smart so they won’t.

 

Don't like the Minshew kid?
