Yeah, maybe uncomfortable to talk about but the reality is that Shazier was critical to any hopes the Steelers had of slowing down the Patriots passing game.

e: I actually think the Steelers might win this one, setting up heartbreak in Steelerland when the 2017 AFCCG turns out exactly the same as the 2016 AFCCG

Patriots going to lose out and miss the playoffs. That's still possible right?

I just don't get these people, not just the football players, but all the politicians, actors, and so on who are getting busted or accused. They're famous, have money, generally good looking or in shape (at least he athletes) but still corner women and pull their dicks out? How hard is it to find a horny single in your area on Tinder? I guess it becomes more about power than sex at some point.

Also remember that since high school these guys have been captain of the football team, drilling cheerleaders and the homecoming queen, have had their pick of women going into college and throughout their careers, so they're used to sticking it in any hole they come across.

I'm surprised there aren't more of these cases at this point.

How 'rapey' do you think guys like Magic and Wilt Chamberlain were? Think of all the people accused of this poo poo in the past like Big Ben, Favre...

i guess the NFL Network poo poo is like the least surprising thing ever, but it still sucks. a bunch of former players who have literally never been around women in any sort of professional way their entire lives have no clue what to do with that new information and act like dumbasses. good riddance

Lmao this happens on every team every game. It would drive my dad insane, but it's absolutely hilarious.

you're definitely not wrong, just frustrating to watch during a game where you needed (and probably could have had) about 10 more of those plays. guys were dropping coverage all night long, even on plays that seemed like slam dunks at the start. letting Cutler scramble out of the pocket and complete 15 yard passes to wide open targets isn't a sustainable gameplan, even against the loving dolphins

i'm loathe to admit it, but the guys on 98.5 were right this morning when they said that maybe Bill and the gang got caught looking a little too far ahead to Pittsburgh.

Oh hey, no one posted quick reads; http://www.footballoutsiders.com/quick-reads/2017/week-14-quick-reads

There's a fun break down of snow games in it as well, shockingly Brady, Roethlisberger, Favre, Jay Cutler and Ryan Fitzpatrick are the only guys with significant pass attempts in snow games (Really, no Rodgers?)

Also, since he's been pretty anonymous, I feel this worth posting:

7. Mitch Trubisky: I don't know how many people were watching the Bears and Bengals, but those who tuned in saw the best game of Trubisky's young career. He really turned it on with about 10 minutes to go in the third quarter. At that point, Chicago was clinging to a 12-7 lead. But on the Bears' final five drives, he went 7-of-8 for 91 yards and a touchdown, plus a DPI for 1 more yard and another first down.

Trubisky is legit good for a rookie QB. He still has those dumb rookie decisions in him, but his ability is fantastic an if the Bears get someone who know how to call plays, he's going to be solid as hell for them.

Him, Cohen and a coach who isnt 3 years past caring, and the Bears are a playoff team

There's still the chance that what Goff is right now is his ceiling, but more then likely last year was a mulligan and right now is Goff's rookie season. He still looks like he needs another full offseason of McVay coaching him up, but the future looks bright.

There were some glaringly awful mechanics and footwork and other issues he still had early in the season, that were improved significantly by midseason. First year being a mulligan is probably accurate. Fisher had neither the ability nor willingness to coach up young QBs.

I think Brady had a crap game last night. Floating passes that turn into interceptions & throwing at receivers’ feet are not how you win games. Defense seemed either slow or out of place, having to close down on angles to intercept Dolphins receivers.

Meanwhile the Steelers are keeping things close & are winning with last-second field goals. Rely on defensive stops, utilize Bell & Brown for offense. I feel that even if the Pats win next week, the Steelers are a better team & could easily make it to the Super Bowl.
