Week 9 NFL Running Thread: It was good while it lasted but the Steelers are back

OOP, great work. No. 1 is No. 1 in my heart as far as the Steelers are concerned.

And I like the Bucs' orange unis. Bring them back.

 

Disagree. This is exactly the kind of game the Cowboys win, with Romo throwing for 350 yards and four TDs. Then they'll roar through Thanksgiving looking like world beaters only to crash and burn in December. You can set your watch by it.

 

Not in Philly. The Cowboys may win and Romo may keep playing well, but I'm guessing it won't be a shootout. I think if they win, it'll be more like 20-16.

 

Philly 27-16

 

That's about what I'm thinking. Of course, this is another chance for Romo to prove he can step up in a big game. I just think the Eagles will be able to slow Miles Austin, who's been great, but against the Chiefs, Falcons (secondary is their weakness) and Seahawks. I don't see Asante Samuel letting Austin keep up his recent pace.

 

Not to mention the darling Brady Quinn . . .

I'm thinking the modern professional athlete would take the field festooned in "Hello Kitty!" gear if you're paying him enough money.

I was wondering what was up with the Mets newest pitching acquisition.

 

Bubbler, I put that No. 1 for a reason. I didn't understand the people waiting outside the hospital after Roethlisberger's accident as it is. But to basically tailgate outside the hospital in those circumstances? That's just all kinds of messed up.

 

Romo will be fine. After all, we are still about a month away from December.

 

Raheem Morris should bring back some John McKayisms. "Coach Morris, what do you think of your team's execution?" "I'm all for it."
