I didn't think Joe Haden and James Harrison being out would hurt the Steelers that much.

I dunno. The Packers aren't starved for cap room and Ted barely signs free agents anyway, this past offseason notwithstanding.

My major concern is we have a lot of rookie contracts expiring soon, notably Davante's, that will be expensive to keep. Cobb seems more likely to be traded/cut/renegotiated than Clay.

i think there's some small chance cobb can be re-signed on a more modest deal, given that he has seen what happened to past receiving confederates (jennings, jones) after they left the warm embrace of rodgers offense

they allowed 1 touchdown for the entire month of november.

they haven't had a 1-score game since early october.

they've scored 30+ points for 5 games in a row.

they've scored at least 24 points in every game this season


pretty sure they're for real

compare them to the saints/vikings/rams/panthers/falcons/seahawks and i can't see any argument for putting any of those teams on top.

like the worst thing I can say about the Eagles is that if they get into a back-and-forth playoff shootout with the Saints, I trust Brees to win it slightly more than Wentz, by dint of track record

the only really :chloe: games we've had were the giants game before everyone died, the chargers game and the loss to the chiefs before they turned into a pumpkin.

we haven't had a game that's been in doubt since week 6.

Seriously. I hate to see Cobb go, but he hasn't really been productive since he's been on his new contract.
