    Only so much you can do with such limited talent, but there is no way a defense shouldn't be ready for Mike Wallace to go deep on the first play after a turnover. The same goes for the quarterback draw that Roethlisberger audibled to that set up Mendenhall's touchdown. He could not have made it more obvious.

    And now the Steelers are handing them a drive. When Timmons comes clean like that, he has to bury McCoy.

    Heck, the way the Browns have played since coming back, Red Right 88 and The Fumble ARE past glories.

    Steelers got very lucky to only give up three points there. I know Hillis is beat up, but given how different the Browns looked with him back in the game on that drive, I do not get why they didn't start him.

    Still a touchback.

    Mangini still plays it conservative despite the fact that they have nothing to play for and haven't been able to stop the Steely McBeams at all whatsoever. Lot of good the field goal will do.

    If the ball goes out of bounds in the end zone on a fumble, it's a touchback. If the ball is possessed by a player who is out of bounds, then the ball is out of bounds and dead, so therefore it's a touchback.

    Now that is entertaining. Cry a little more, sad little Browns fan. And keep on deluding yourself into thinking your sad excuse for a team doesn't employ any bad guys.

    Thanks for the clarification. You too, Chef. Seemed like it might be a weird play, with the guy out of bounds, but apparently it's pretty cut-and-dried.

    Glad to see the various dregs of the league showing some pride this weekend.

    Yeah, sexual assault and trying to bring a loaded gun on an airplane is so much better.
