    If this guy made $2 million in his career, I could almost get in his corner. He lived at a level which he can't afford now, because you can run out of $2 million.

    Jackson made $91 million in his career. Fuck him.

    Let's put it this way. If the Patriots and Cardinals both finish with winning % of < .250 -- and that's plausible because both are 3-10 (.231) and would need to win twice the rest of the way -- the Steelers will become the first team to lose two home games in a season to opponents of that level of fail since the 1977 Saints. So close to the 1976 Bucs.
    No team has lost three home games in a season to opponents finishing said season with winning % of < .250.

    I wouldn't be so sure. The race for the seventh wild card is a giant mess of mediocrity. Unless the Browns, Bengals & Texans all win this weekend, the Steelers will still be in a tie for the final spot or spots (not sure of the tiebreakers). Stranger shit has happened. Rex Ryan declared the Jets were out at 7-7 in 2009 and then they were 30 minutes away from making the Super Bowl.

    I am certain. They would have to win at least three of their four remaining games, possibly all four, and all of those teams are at least in contention. They will likely be without Pickett for at least two more games, which means they would have to win with Trubisky.

    All the Steelers need is Pete Gaudet and a well-timed back surgery.

    Todd Haley hasn't been with the Steelers since 2017, and by all accounts, it was not an amicable parting of the ways.

    T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith are both in the concussion protocol. It was initially reported that Highsmith left Thursday's game with a neck injury. Watt took two significant blows to the head Thursday night and was somehow cleared to return after time in the blue tent. Of course, the league will ignore this or clear everybody involved of any wrongdoing, but there's no way in hell he didn't play most of that game with a concussion. With eight days between games, I wouldn't be surprised to see both of them on the field when the Steelers play the Colts next week.

    I’m pretty forgiving of people on the spectrum. Have a good day.

    I wouldn't mock ASD with that comparison.

    There's a difference between being in your own head and up your own ass.
