Why's mitchy in for the steelers? 

Pickett out with rib injury.

I don’t know what happens to Sam Howell when he plays the Eagles but he should bottle it’s he has pretty much driven at will on them today

Jets have yet to convert a third down

Seems like coaches are getting visibly fed up now 

 

It's been the same officiating going on for decades and they're not going to have any reckonings.

They think all drama is good drama, and that is more important to them than actual outcomes.

At some point the league is going to have a reckoning with the referees 

Nah.  Zero accountability for the refs - no press conferences, no formal explanations promptly following games provided for calls/no-calls

[BBFL]

So Malik Willis is never seeing the field in Tennessee unless there’s an injury to both Tannehill and Levis…

 

On a serious note, do they move onto Levis as the starter???? Guy has more TDs than Tanny on the whole season. Writing definitely on the wall. 
 

That division certainly isn’t out of reach with a win today…

How the heck do we continue losing to Zach Wilson?  ( I know the answer)

[78thealltimegreat]

The Jags Steelers sounds like a Pittsburgh home game and they have 3 points

He's injured. Thumb. Rest of starters are in. They haven't quit.

 

I know they haven't quit, but as he's carrying an injury there's no point risking aggravating it with the score as it stands.

5/13 on 3rd down against the Bills, and 1/1 on 4th down.

My mistake I just recognized it is a Pittsburgh home game 

[Low Positive]

What’s happening in Tennessee is bad news for those of you who wanted to raid their roster.

[UKBillFan]

Steelers make it a one score game against the Jags.

1.  Who won?

 

2. Can you tell me what a redblack is.  Didn't they used to be the roughriders?

CFL had team names change a few years back.  Canada is more sensitive to these things.

Gotta give the giants defense some credit too…they have been on a tear the last few weeks.  They turned it around starting with Seattle 

 

played pretty well against Miami even given the circumstances…gave up a bunch of yards but got two big turnovers despite being on the field all first half

The Giants also had two months to prepare for this, while the Bills spent their time preparing for a different QB. 

[BBFL]

Not a fan of forcing the ball to receivers but Pittsburgh is having a tough year offensively and Pickens has shown when you target him 10+ times a game he produces. Handsomely. Bonkers they don’t make it a priority.
