Ya just can't trust those d*** Cowboys! They were down by 17, (27-10) in the fourth with ten minutes left, and I figured there'd be no way they could win or even tie the game needin' three scores in 10 minutes, considering the Niners defense was playin' pretty well, so I shut it off.  Fortunately for me, ('cause I don't like the Cowboys or their owner), they still lost with a final of 30-24. Pretty big deal for the Cowboys to score 2 TDs plus a FG from the Niners in just 10 minutes after mediocre play for 3 & 1/3 quarters. Seems I remember they bested the Steelers (against what the pundits are calling the best defense in the league) with 1 minute left to play just a couple of weeks back. Steelers and Giants tonight. Really glad Disney settled with ESPN a couple weeks ago and allowed joint broadcast of Monday Night Football, 'cause I don't buy ESPN, but I do get ABC for free.

I failed in adding Stillers schedule to my calendar. Ow stuck in a hotel in Philly and need to be at an 8AM meeting. Hopefully they have this wrapped up by halftime!

Not sure if they are playing down or being undisciplined. Just can’t seem to finish. Moving the ball like crazy between the 20s. Najee is playing for a new contract. Defense needs to step up a little more.

Stillers pick up a washed up Mike Williams for a 5th round draft pick. Not sure why? The guy is basically Van Jefferson. He was a stud in college, but long ago. He had two good NFL seasons and a bunch of ho hum seasons. I guess they need depth, but 5th seems steep for 1/2 year rental of an average old WR. If Pickens, Jefferson or Austin go down, they are in trouble, so I guess that is really it. This isn’t nearly the upgrade they were teasing that might make the difference in a deep playoff run. I guess the standard being the standard pickup. Should get them above .500 and maybe wildcard weekend. Go Stillers…

Yes, I saw a group of 5 guys were supposed to come back this week. I think Herbig too. They traded for an edge rusher though, so not sure if Herbig injury might be on that typically lingers? Or that guy is big enough to rotate more interior line?

Would have been nice if Roman Wilson made more of an impact. He seemed like that type of WR that Tomlin has had luck turning into something special. One of Tomlin’s few things that he has seemed to do really well. But not all that recently. Calvin Austin appeared to maybe be that guy too. Wilson really looked to be that guy in Michigan. Good route runner and excellent chemistry with QB when plays break down and able to give them a reliable target.

Very entertaining game. The injury to Highsmith looked pretty serious. The pass to Williams was a thing of beauty.

Nice forecast for a football game… I’d prefer snow over cold rain, at least as a fan in the stadium. Going to be a sloppy one. Browns chances go way up the worse the weather is. So I think it will be close. Which stinks on a weeknight, doubt it will be over at halftime. Browns have one of the best RBs of the past 5-10 years. Defense is solid. Most importantly, division game, throw the records out. Wilson’s moon ball is likely out of the playbook, which allows the Browns to stack the box. I know they won’t do it, but I would prefer Fields more in these conditions. Maybe he will get a few sub packages.

Your phone is broken!

Just because it was something negative about our Stillers.

They really just need the Ravens game. Eagles game wasn’t too much of a surprise. How bad they got beat up was. They are just a different offense without Pickens. Watt not being 100%, Jackson and Elliot not 100% on an already suspect defensive backfield. I wouldn’t be surprised if they head into the Bengals finale 0-3 in this stretch. I think Ravens are better than the Chiefs, but have to play against the refs when you play the Chiefs. Didn’t help them get back in the game with Eagles when handed two personal fouls for getting punched by Eagles players??? Got beat regardless, but crushed any chance of grabbing momentum.

Hoping selfishly the Bengals game means something. Taking my son to his first Stillers game.
