Pickett has to continue to play at least as well as he did against the Bengals. He needs to convert third downs. Otherwise, the running backs...
Hopefully, the Steelers will have Minkah Fitzpatrick back by then. Thompson has filled in okay against a couple of backup quarterbacks, but they...
You don't think Hines Ward in the prime of his career was much better than Diontae Johnson right now. You don't think Alan Faneca in his prime was...
The overall resume matters more than one game. Matchups also matter in football. Allen makes the Bills a tough matchup for the Eagles, whose...
The Bills are 6-6, 3-5 in the AFC. They have some tough losses to good teams. They also lost to the Jets, Broncos, and Patriots. They needed a big...
Counting the Hall of Famers was shorthand for the 2004 team being better, so I was comparing 2004 Faneca to everybody on the current line and 2004...
Kinda hard to call a guy averaging 3.7 yards per carry a stud.
I made that my sig for two reasons. One is that I find it funny. The other is that he wasn't wrong.
Faneca earned AP All-Pro honors for the fourth time in three seasons that year. He made the second team the other season. He was well on his way...
I don't trust his effort, but you have to take the risk for a number of reasons. One is that this team has had far too much trouble scoring...
True. I blame the officials and Tomlin before I blame Johnson.
I heard the excuse. Didn't Johnson say something? In a spot like that, you trust your player and throw the flag.
You and I remember that game very differently. They were losing at halftime. I was pissed. I certainly felt more comfortable about their ability...
You don't know the guy. Tomlin does. That makes a difference. He was smart enough to know that people were going to be dancing on the grave of...
Plenty of players will whine about it, including some damn good ones, but they have the sense to not take the following play off.
Which draft pick should they have passed on to take a receiver? They needed help on the offensive line and Jones is providing it. The same is true...
Only the people who are constantly searching for an excuse to rip into Tomlin would have done that. Challenging it would have been the right call.
Reich would be a solid choice.
The lack of yardage as a symptom of the offensive problems, an indicator of just how poor they had been for a long time.
It sucks, but that is a function of the injuries. They were starting two guys they just brought up from the practice squad and they lost another...
