It's Steeler Week

So was Otto Graham...
Amazing how many here still cling to Wentz panning out yet refuse to acknowledge Jackson's arrival.
I seriously underestimated Jackson when he came out. Marked improvement in his accuracy.. We were wishin' and a hopein' he 'd be hurt by now running as much as he does.. But he's an amazingly shifty runner who to date has easily managed to avoid taking big hits.

On the morning show on 92.3 The Fan there was talk that 15 buses full of Browns fans are going to Heinz Field.
Ahh...good.....brawling in the stands.

AKA SNATCH98 or Rorbotron. The boards glorious admins decided to get cute and change my name to "homotron" Classy group of people. (Lost a bet with Columbus king and got banned for a month) -
The 2004 and 2005 Colts, the 2007 Patriots, the 2011 Packers, the 2013 Broncos and last years Chiefs.
Every time a seemingly unstoppable offense emerges in the NFL, a defense somewhere steps up to show that there isn't such a thing. Lamar is fun as hell to watch and what he's doing is fantastic, but it's not without precedent or being indefensible. Despite his improvement throwing, he still has limitations as a passer and still has a throwing motion that can cost him some needed completions at times.
I'll be watching closely next week because the Niners have the dline and athletic ability at Linebacker to give the Ravens a large problem scoring touchdowns.

Ohhh boy, it’s Steeler week, and this one definitely has a little extra to it. It’s not a stretch to say this is the biggest game our new franchise has played in since the 2007 Bengals game we lost that would’ve gotten us into the playoffs.
A win gets us to 6-6 AND sweeps the Steelers so we’d own the tie-breaker. It also gets us to 3-0 in the division, .500 overall in DECEMBER, and puts us somehow in the freaking driver’s seat to get to 7-6 after playing the Bengals the following week.
Make no mistake, this is NOT going to be an easy game. More than likely, it’s going to be an all-out shitfest. Points will likely be at a premium, turnovers will be paramount, and just one missed FG could turn the tide. I’m serious, I see this game being something like 20-18, and we MUST follow the same recipe as our last victory against them that had us not turning it over, finally capitalizing on an INT late in the game, taking what’s available, and being ok to punt the ball. This will likely be the type of game where a couple of amazing punts and subsequent coverage can swing the game our way. We can’t have the killer, “drive killing” type plays. Last week we had an errant snap on 2nd and 1 from the 50 that caused us to punt the ball. We were driving and likely had a deep ball dialed in on that play. We never got to find out because we snapped the ball when the QB wasn’t ready, and that’s the kind of thing that CAN’T happen.
The Steelers will likely bench Rudolph in favor of their 3rd string guy, and normally that would be a good thing, but I have a feeling that their defense is going to be SO amped up to play, that their offense won’t have to do much. We haven’t scored a defensive TD in what feels like forever, and I think we can break that dry spell Sunday. If we do, that could be enough to win us the game.
We’re getting Njoku, Ogunjobi, and HOPEFULLY Vernon back. Our defense certainly tried hard against the Fins, but the lack of pass rush was very evident on so many passing plays. I don’t have the stats handy, but it appeared that we blitzed FAR more often last week to make up for Myles’ absence, and I wasn’t terribly pleased with the results. I believe we’ll play more coverage this week, and we’ll FORCE their 3rd string QB to make precision throws down the field. If things don’t end up going our way this year, I think we’ll point back to Myles Garrett being the reason we didn’t have a shot at the playoffs. His absence really is that painful.
This is a huge game for so many reasons. There’s going to be a ton of feelings on both side of the ball, tempers will flare, and we’ll HAVE to keep our heads this game. We certainly CAN win this game, and what’s more, we SHOULD win. It’s been a long time since I could honestly say that, and I sincerely hope we handle our business Sunday at 1pm.
Happy Thanksgiving, now go kick some freaking ass.

honestly, even if they win...and kill our chances, I do not see any way they make the playoffs. After the Browns, they play the Cardinals, Bills, Jets and Ravens. They have the opportunity to lose all those games....and the Raiders or one of the AFCS will take that last spot.

We can beat the Steelers without Garrett. How's that stud (in your imagination) QB Rudolph the Reindeer working out for you?
Who are you talking about?
Smollett was the black actor who dreamed up that fake racist attack in Chicago.

The Steelers...what a bunch of dicks!

Steelers officially starting The Duck at QB.

Minus Pouncey- he had better learn to Duck. Pressure up the middle- the bane of QBs.... I didn't watch their game against the Bungles, I'll have to pull it up on my Sunday Ticket replays to see if he's got any mobility.
PS- I did notice checking the depth chart- Ghoolie's pal Paxton Lynch is there as a backup to the backup....
PPS- And I'll paraphrase one of the comments I saw in the power rankings of the week. The Browns lose to the Steelers, and their playoff hopes are as cooked as a Thanksgiving turkey....

I've never been all aboard the Rudolph train. I thought he might be the guy but he has only gotten worse. Rudolph also didn't say anything racist to Garrett. No one in the locker room of either team knew a damn thing about it. Garrett said it to try and save face.
All the steelers need is decent qb play. It isn't going to be from Rudolph.

1) Duck is an unknown quantity. One nice pass does not a career make. Fitzpatrick and Bush saved you the embarrassment of losing to a pathetic Bengals team.
2) Garrett was over the top- sure. The pass was already gone, and with eight seconds left, no need to bear hug Mason to the ground. I'm one of the few around here trying to be objective enough to say there's the possibility Garrett was trying to pad his sack total. He should have just dropped the helmet. As others have said- why in the hell did Tomlin call a pass play with the game out of reach in the first place? You're not scoring twice with less than 10 seconds left. It would have taken a miracle to just score once considering the field position. Myles did mention something to Freddie after the game (that he said he couldn't repeat), not like he cooked up the race card a couple days later. It's not like Rudolph is totally innocent either. We're not buying your argument "his hand was just stuck". There's that one still showing Myles' helmet was about 1\2 pulled off.

You and Rudolph....both liars.
You do not have one goddamned iota of what was or was not said. And I am certain that you are not capable of understanding the evidentiary principles I have outlined on here wherein it would be highly credible what he said.

Any truth to the rumors that there could be really bad weather this coming weekend in Pittsburgh? I think I heard them talking on 92.3 about the Browns worrying about getting the team into Pittsburgh Saturday.
