Didn’t think the Steelers were gonna blow out the Panthers like that. I wanna watch how Brees uses his new Dez Bryant weapon!

I can’t believe how they’re struggling against the Titans today. They better wake up this second half!

I missed the game - had a couple of flights today. Sounds like the Pats didn't have a good game.

Titans defense kept getting to Brady. And the Titans just played near perfect.

Bears win. Huh. Cause, what I expect from those guys is to be disappointed, like the Cubbies disappointed their fans for, what was it, a hundred seasons?

But instead, they're doing okay.

So the question is, what are they up to? Cause we all know they're not actually gonna win anything.

Trubisky has been playing well at QB. Looks like the Bears are 1/2 game up for first in the division at 6-3. Do you think they'll make the playoffs?

Who Dat Nation on fire with Saints showing the Bengals a hurtin at home. Brees is about 30 TD’s behind Peyton Mannings all time TD record, can he do it this year?

I'm thinking the Steelers are in on the running after a very questionable start. The Browns certainly made things interesting this year but this whole LeVeon Bell holdout thing has really added a measure of uncertainty that James Connor seems to have put to rest. Word is that Bell was in town this week but failed to report and instead was sighted playing a game of pick up basketball at a local gym. Personally, with a "teammate" like him I wouldn't even pick him to be on a dodgeball team. I don't care how talented he is, he hasn't done anything since January and he's got a history of putting his habits ahead of his career.

It's official: L8Veon Bell failed to report by 4pm yesterday to sign his third franchise tag, effectively walking away from $14.5M dollars he would have earned in the 2018 season and ending his Steelers career. While I understand that he has saved his body from wear and tear I think realistically he saw that the offensive line was able to do its job and allow his backup James Connor to exceed him and effectively make him the backup in waiting.

No matter: the Steelers are now the #2 seed in the AFC and are facing the slumping Jaguars in Jacksonville.

...and what's happening with the Patriots? Is it a sign or is it just a case of "remain calm! ALL IS WELL!" ???

Not all is well, in fact, this is almost typical with the Patriots season after season. Week 11 is their much-needed bye week. That’s quite some time for Gronk and Michel to heal up, and for the pats to regroup and strategize for the last quarter of the season.

The Steelers/Pats game will be possibly huge for the #2 seed and first round bye. Although, SD is still around too.

Yeah, KC and SD are the teams to watch. The Steelers need to keep up the momentum but they have had a lot of drama in the locker room over Bell for over two seasons now. Even now, after the deadline has passed he's still being talked about. Ridiculous. As long as he doesn't end up in Baltimore or New England good riddance IMO.
