Survey Tuesday AFCN and beyond
-
I looked at a half dozen sites like ESPN, Bleacher Report etc. that all gave the division to the Ratfuckers...and had the Browns and Steelers fighting it out for 2d place.
We shall see....hopefully, if they play.
We signed Steven Nelson in free agency to a pretty big deal as far as the steelers are concerned with fa. I believe it may have been the most the team has given a free agent ever and he was an absolute beast. Mark barron lost his job to Devin bush.
I will revisit the rest tomorrow. We went 8-8 without a proven qb gipper. What are you missing here? And pittsburgh beat writers that are in the main stream are horrible. Absolutely horrible. As I said keep sleeping on em. I will respond to the rest tomorrow.

Is Bush playing that combo LB/safety now that Barron played? (but again...per what I looked up...Bush started 15 games, Barron started 9....they clearly were not playing the same position....it seems like maybe it was Vince Williams that replaced Barron, as he started 8 games. (again, Bush/Williams, even if they replaced Barron...were part of the teams starters last year)
And, again, Nelson was on the Steelers last year....so, again, not saying he is bad or anything...but he is NOT a new face that constitutes an upgrade from last year.
I will revisit the rest tomorrow. We went 8-8 without a proven qb gipper. What are you missing here?
What are YOU missing...I have explained this now twice. Hello McFly...is anybody home? Yes, your hope to be better rests on 38 year old BR being back to form. Like I said, a 50/50 gamble that that will happen . And the rest of the team has NOT improved overall....where I think all the rest of the other AFCN teams have improved at a far greater capacity than the Steelers. So, even if you have improved...it may not be reflected much in the record. Those sites I cited gave the Steelers generally a 9-7 prediction...even with BR on board. The Browns are expected to be significantly better, both because of quality additions of personnel, and...of course, the coaching is anticipated to be much better (it could hardly have been any worse). And the Bengals are expected to be improved a lot, and not just because of Burrow. And I think the Ravens have improved in a few capacities...but let's hope not.
And pittsburgh beat writers that are in the main stream are horrible. Absolutely horrible. As I said sleeping on em. I will respond to the rest tomorrow.
Or, maybe they just give you their unvarnished truthful opinions where yinzers just want them to powder the team's tushy so as to fuel your delusions.
Again, bottom line,
Steelers sign Wisniewski on the OL...but lost Foster and Finney....a net talent loss I would say
They sign Ebron...but lose Vanett. (probably a slight plus)
They lose Hargrave and Tyler Matekevich (backup....but best ST player)
And they get BR back.
-
By the way, I think the Steelers lost their opportunity to get the backup QB they need in the event that BR goes down again when they passed up on signing Cam Newton....who now apparently is a Patriot.
In a previous Survey, it was a fair consensus that the Steelers seemed to be the right landing spot for Cam. Which may have been true. We Browns fans didn't like that idea. But, of course a guy like that didn't want to play second fiddle to BR apparently, and signed to get a probable starting gig in NE. So much for that confidence in Jarett Stidham.
So, it could be another year with the Duck and Rudolph the Redneck Reindeer if BR goes down like Frazier.

But if Ben is playing, the Steelers are dangerous. Don't forget they get Tuitt back.

Have you read anything that I posted? Any and every AFC team could be considered "dangerous"...and they are only perhaps that IF BR is playing...and playing like he used to (which is still a 50/50 proposition)
The Ravens are dangerous, and don't forget they signed Calais Campbell.
The Browns are dangerous....if the new coach is any good, and they signed 3-4 new good defensive players.
The Bengals are dangerous....with Joe Burrow
The Patriots are now dangerous with having signed Cam Newton
The Jets are dangerous because it looks like Darnold may be rounding into form.
The Bills are dangerous because Josh Allen is improving and because their defense may be second to none.
The Colts are dangerous because they now have Phillip Rivers and have added pieces around him and on defense
The Titans are dangerous because they were tough as hell anyway and may only be better.
The Texans are dangerous because What?.....Wat....Watt. (though less so because they dumped Hopkins)
The Jaguars are dangerous....when it comes to competing for the #1 overall draft pick
The Broncos are dangerous because they play a mile high, and Drew Lock may actually turn out to be good.
The Raiders are dangerous because they play in a new stadium and city.
The Chargers are dangerous because they drafted a new QB and signed some good defensive FA's
The Chiefs are dangerous because I don't even need to explain this one, do I?
-
Categories associated herewith to analyze:
A. Here are players that the Browns have signed that they did not have last year that are expected to be talent upgrades on their roster from what was there last year:
Offense: Jack Conklin RT, Austin Hooper TE, Andy Janovich FB (didn't even have a FB last year)
Defense: Clayborn DE Billings DT, Goodson MLB , Sendejo FS, Karl Joseph SS (While some of these are slated as backups, they are still an upgrade from the backups they replaced)
B. Biggest Loss not necessarily replaced : Joe Schobert MLB
C. Expected to return to form from injury/doghouse: Olivier Vernon DE, OBJ, Jarvis WRs and Rashard Higgins WR.
D. Second year guys expected (hoped) to step up: Takitaki, LB Mack Wilson LB, Greedy Williams CB, Sheldrick Redwine? FS (not to mention our QB even)
E. Available full time this year after missing half season on suspension: Kareem Hunt RB
F. Rookies expected to contribute significantly (perhaps even start) : Jed Wills and Trusts LOT; Jordan Elliot (or is it Elliot Jordan?) DT, Jake Phillips MLB, Nick Harris (backup OL)
Rob/Homo/Vagi-Tron can do a similar analysis for the Steelers

Gipper you are making it really hard for me to be nice. ?
Mark barron was not good, ever for the steelers. Edmunds may drop down into the box more and we have guys in the wings that I won't even mention because you will poo poo it. Big red was good on special teams but we brought in someone better in derrick watt. I only mentioned Nelson because you mentioned the loss of artie burns who had 1 relevant season for the steelers but you listed it as a loss.
You keep mentioning dusty Springfield but you better be hoping big ben doesn't bounce back. It's always your m.o tho. I feel like you take zero of what anyone says into account the majority of the time and just insert your opinion as fact. The only reason the steelers werent a 10+ win team last year is qb play. As ice cube mentioned we get tuitt back who literally could not be blocked last year before injury.
Vanett was a depth signing, Ebron is world's better. The Steelers didn't need to add anyone to make a deep run. Ben is back, players are healthy.
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) -
Is that a photo of someone who read your riveting thread about how Nick Chubb is a very good RB? Because that was some earth-shattering news!
Next thread from Icecube: WATER IS WET!

If Roethlisberger comes back and plays at his regular level, there's no reason the Steelers couldn't be a 10 or 11 win team.
But that is not a guaranteed thing, especially at his age.

He thankfully looks really good and the reports about his arm are nothing but positive. Gonna have to see how he does with contact. He's says it's the first time in years his arm doesn't hurt.

The only thing against BR might be the division he's in the suddenly quarterback loaded AFCN even with junior over in Cincinnati.
It should be a really interesting 2020 if they can actually play tackle football without everyone ending in a big "timeout".
2021 might be interesting also.

Sorry if you cannot handle the facts. And that is all I am giving you.

I only mentioned Nelson because you mentioned the loss of artie burns who had 1 relevant season for the steelers but you listed it as a loss.
I mention Barron and Burns because you lost them. Even if they were not starters there that you lost....how does saying "these are guys that weren't any good...yet they are NOT players that you replaced with better players. All you are telling us about are the players that are still holdovers from your team that went 8-8. So...no actual upgrades. Maybe the guys you have as holdovers are pretty good/Edmunds, Nelson, but they were starters last year. (and who is Big Red?). And again, I will poo poo the guys you have in the "wings" because they are obviously unproven rookies. See the post above where I listed ABCDEF....and do your analysis like that to include all those categories...and you can tell us about the guys you have "in the wings".
You keep mentioning dusty Springfield but you better be hoping big ben doesn't bounce back. It's always your m.o tho. I feel like you take zero of what anyone says into account the majority of the time and just insert your opinion as fact.
It is the other way around: I take facts (your opinions don't count as facts) and form opinions based on them. BR is a 38 year old QB coming off a lost season due to serious injury. That is fact. And your own team's writers say it is rare historically that guys come back from that situation. That too is fact. You believe, i.e. hope, wish, and dream that they are wrong. I said he had a 50/50 chance of doing so, so I am actually being more optimistic from your standpoint on that matter than your own people. I think that is being gracious, Dusty.
The only reason the steelers werent a 10+ win team last year is qb play. As ice cube mentioned we get tuitt back who literally could not be blocked last year before injury.
QB play was, yes, a major part of it. And as I said, all your dreams and hopes are squarely placed right there. (but the fact is, the other skill players on that offense are by NO means proven world beaters. MOR talent at best. Tuitt? In 5 years prior to 2019 he never made a Pro Bowl. He was playing well before he went down....but NOT appreciably better than his previous 5 seasons in the league. Still, sure, having him is better than not having him.
Vanett was a depth signing, Ebron is world's better.
World's better? Not sure about that. Better? Yes. I would not trade either of our top two TEs for either of them nor McDonald.
The Steelers didn't need to add anyone to make a deep run. Ben is back, players are healthy.
Actually...they did, because the teams they are competing against DID add significant talent. And The STeelers didn't keep up. Maybe they will be better, somewhat, with BR...you hope. (and if he stays healthy they should be...somewhat....better). But that may not be enough to stay in parity with the other AFCN team.
But, they will be well coached...and there is where you should hang your hat as much or more than on BR.

Well...there is one reason....because, as I said, because the other teams in this division have improved greatly.
The other thing perhaps working in their favor (and that of the entire AFCN)...may be the schedule. The AFCN is not playing the toughest divisions in the league. Here is their schedule:

They would/should then be completely ashamed of you. This board is ashamed of you. I am ashamed of you. And your grandpa may have died in Korea....but you still have no clue what a communist really is. For you it is just something to call a person you disagree with.
You're not only dumb.. You are a typical liberal dick.. I ashamed that you support baby killing.. Riots.. Looters... Destruction and hate... And the defacing of our nations history... Enjoy your socialist , Dystopian life if the dems get in... You deserve it for being a blind , brainwashed sheep!

I'll leave the politics at one post... Being brainwashed is a POV Nickers.... Some would say there's none more brainwashed than the MAGAs.... Since you're into music, Tom Petty's estate told Trump to "Just back down, or we'll sue you around". For unauthorized use of that song during his rallys.

Chrissie Hynde did the same with My City is Gone....about....Akron, Ohio to Rush Limbaugh. However, from what I understand, the producers of that show wanted so much to keep that song as their signature song, they they offered to pay a lot of money to do so, which money, I understand, was immediately donated to "liberal causes" that Limbaugh would hate. So, maybe Petty's estate and the Stones should do the same....ask for a huge payday to use those songs, and then donate the money to the Biden campaign. That would be fresh.

at Cleveland BrownsFirstEnergy Stadium, Cleveland, OH 1:00pm ETCBS Buy Tickets Go ahead and make a prediction on these games and what their record will be. (My guess is that they could be like 4-5 before they play the Browns in their 10th game.
For shame Gipper- there's 4 preseason games that don't mean diddly. There well may not even be 4 preseason games... I'm going to say either 2-3 or 3-2 in games that actually count...

Doh! you are absolutely right. I wasn't even paying attention to the fact that preseason games were included there . And I am going to agree with you on the 2-3 record.

Here is a possible solution to the Steeler backup QB situation, since they didn't sign Newton:
Sign Colin Kaepernick
Put your Rooney Rule where your mouth is.

Gipper you are making it really hard for me to be nice. ?
Mark barron was not good, ever for the steelers. Edmunds may drop down into the box more and we have guys in the wings that I won't even mention because you will poo poo it. Big red was good on special teams but we brought in someone better in derrick watt. I only mentioned Nelson because you mentioned the loss of artie burns who had 1 relevant season for the steelers but you listed it as a loss.
You keep mentioning dusty Springfield but you better be hoping big ben doesn't bounce back. It's always your m.o tho. I feel like you take zero of what anyone says into account the majority of the time and just insert your opinion as fact. The only reason the steelers werent a 10+ win team last year is qb play. As ice cube mentioned we get tuitt back who literally could not be blocked last year before injury.
Vanett was a depth signing, Ebron is world's better. The Steelers didn't need to add anyone to make a deep run. Ben is back, players are healthy.

Not only were they down to a 4th string QB last year, but their skill players units were decimated as well. If Ben is back, the only legit loss is Hargrave. But at this point, and all the craziness going on, it's a total guess on where they will be if we do have a season. Only safe bet is that Balt. will still be the lead dog in the north. I've never seen a 14-2 team add so much talent. It blows my mind.

Well....it may be a safe bet that Crabburg will take the division....but by no means would I say it is a sure bet.
And, as I said....they..the Steelers that is, lost a main cog on their defense....so they have upgraded nowhere else (except probably with Ebron). It ALL depends on BR being his 10 year ago self.

Gipper we let Hargrave go because they like wormley. Our nose tackle is bookended by Heyward and Tuitt and Contrary to your imo suspect assessment (which is really no assessment at all) of Tuitt he was on a defensive player of the year pace before getting hurt. I won't be surprised in the least if our defense is the best in the league this season. (If they play and we don't get killed with injuries)
You are also once again reaaaaallllllllly sleeping on the steeler offense. You keep mentioning talent added but there are only so many spots on the field and outside of the continued growth of Edmunds at SS there aren't many if any roster question marks in Pittsburgh. Ben is the wild card. Minkah Fitzpatrick has the tools to be a generational fs too. He was obviously our first rounder this past draft we just got him early but for whatever reason you ignore that as talent added because he played last year (at a really high level)

I'd be a-okay if they signed kaep. I just don't know what he still has on the field. His situation is also really unique and I believe he's said he won't play for vet min. If he said he would he probably would be signed already, at least on a trial basis. The Steelers like Rudolph. I'm not sold on the guy but I haven't given up on him either.
