Completey and utterly disappointed in the Steelers. I know the weather is bad, but I think they have negative yards of offense in the first half...

+32 actually. Do they look like they'll be able to put anything together in the 2nd half?

Why did anyone think the Steelers would kill the Browns? On the road on a short week? After losing to an almost equally hapless Raiders team? A Super Bowl win last year doesn't change the nature of the Steelers' struggles this year.

I'm not sure the whole Thursday night thing works. This is the second week in a row I have forgotten there is a game on.

Doesn't help that the last two weeks have been terrible games that you knew would be boring.

Steelers are the worst team in the NFL right now. I'm embarrassed that I actually typed a defense of these hacks a few weeks ago. I just loved the shuffling around at the end of the game. No urgency, didn't go to the no huddle, didn't really change things up at all. Arians needs to go at the end of the season. What a joke.

As much as I like Tomlin and his staff, it is tough not to pin these last few losses on the coaching staff w/ as close as the games have been and the calibre of teams they have been losing against. Up until tonight (w/ a pretty weak remaining schedule and Polamalu returning), I thought they could pull things together and comfortably get into the playoffs -- now, I think they keep hoping to play tough and win, but they need to see what they have in some of the young guys like Urbik, Hood, the cornerbacks, Sweed, etc.

The worst part is the lack of fire. They've been bad before, obviously, but they always seemed to play with some heart. That has been lacking this season. I say again, Arians should be fired at the end of the season. I'd fire him tonight, but that's not the way the Rooneys do things. Can't manage a single touchdown against the Browns? Really? Maybe it's time for Bruce to start discovering his calling in life, because it's not as an offensive football coach.

I love listening to Pittsburgh Talk Radio after the Steelers lose...some gems I heard this morning:
"Tomlin should be fired. Do you think Cowher would come back?" "Ben isn't getting the job done, I think it's time Dixon gets his shot." "Limus Sweed should play over Ward." "This is one of the most depressing days of my life. Last time I was this depressed my father died." |

You really have to wonder, at this point, if the Steelers would beat either Tampa Bay or Detroit (who are, I have to think, currently the two worst teams in football).

Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux was arrested on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute after a police officer said he smelled marijuana in the player's SUV during a routine traffic stop Thursday night. ... The team is aware of the arrest, and Babineaux is set to meet with team offiicials Friday morning.
Babineaux was with another man, 25-year-old Aaron Robinson Minneapolis, who also was arrested. Robinson was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, a felony. Babinaeux and Robinson were stopped around 10:45 p.m. Thursday as they drove north on I-85 in Babineaux's 2005 Cadillac Escalade EXT. "It's cut and dry," Gwinnett police spokesman Cpl. David Schiralli told the AJC. "He was stopped for a traffic violation." Schiralli said the officer searched the SUV because he smelled marijuana. The officer found three bags containing a total of 40 grams of marijuana, Schiralli said. In addition to the possession charges, Babineaux is charged with having no tag light and driving without a license and with an expired tag. He also was charged with tinting his car windows too much. Falcons' Jonathan Babineaux jailed on drug charges *| ajc.com

I don't know. I watched mostly the SU game last night, but when flipping back to the NFL game, I somehow saw 4 of the sacks. On 3 of them, they came AFTER 5 seconds. Any sack after 3.5 seconds in the NFL, its the QBs fault for not getting rid of the ball.

The Steelers should change their colors to match the Iowa Hawkeyes. Those guys are winners.

My Dolphins are in Jacksonville this weekend and I'll be making the drive down. I'm looking forward to it, it's been a few years since I saw an NFL game in person and it's a very important game for both teams. Hopefully Miami can maintain their good form (fourth quarter in Buffalo aside) of late.

lol at the Bungals going for another play deep in their territory only to have it backfire.. winfield makes a nice tackle, forcing a fumble and allowing the Vikings to get another 3 points on the board before halftime.

If you let that go you can just put the strongest DB you can find and have him push WRs out of the way until the DB is in position to make a INT. It is one thing if you push the WR out the way with your shoulder for a second, but the Atlanta DB did it for a good 20 yards. Easy and correct call, even if one hates to punish and take away the good defensive play at the end. |

Although I will say Atlanta has had bad luck with penalties since mid point of the 2nd quarter. (Before that all the calls were on the Saints.) Would be nice to see the refs bury their flags for the rest of this game.

Patriots are putrid. Brady's gotta be hurting. Whether it's the lack of sleep from the baby (although I find that hard to believe) or the rib/finger (rib supposedly broken) he looks bad. Team just looks listless and without energy.

Brady is doing on arm strength.. he's still not driving through. Wes Welker.. If he keeps this up.. yes, there's plenty of career left.. borderline HoFer?
