    Nice. I'll put up $100 against your dime. Where do I sign up?

    Well, the Steelers didn't take long to get on the board.

    And they kicked off.

    Pass
    Pick
    Long bomb

    Mangini sure can coach em up. They really look like they're trying to save his job, too. And if Rob Ryan is really interviewing with Carolina I hope they're not watching this game.

    If it keeps up like this, the Browns should refund the cost of the tickets to their fans.

    Do the Browns realize how much a Pittsburgh loss today would fuck over the Steelers?

    If anyone knows what this should've been called, please tell me. From the Detroit-Minny game.
    Detroit player dives for the end zone and has the ball knocked out. It goes into the end zone, where a Minnesota player recovers it -- except his feet appear to be out of bounds as he's gathering it in (it was in the top corner of the end zone and he fell on it with no one else around him).
    Apparently it was ruled a fumble (correctly), a Minnesota recovery and a touchback, and replay upheld that ruling.
    If the Vikings guy was out of bounds, what is the correct call?

    The Browns seem like the SMU of the NFL, in that the franchise got the equivalent of the death penalty, and has never been able to recover its past glories.

    And now Cribbs is hurt.

    I would say this could be a low point for Cleveland fans, but, well...

    Nah, Cribbs has been banged up all year. Pretty much a non-factor. He's playing out of pride(aka trying to meet his incentives)

    And with an 18-week schedule, that would mean Cleveland and Carolina would be dragged out for two more weeks.

    They've had past glories?
    If you make the SMU comparison, they would've had to get the death penalty in 1972, not 1995.

    It was 45-50 years ago, but they were great with Brown and Graham.
