      That was the end of Russ Wilson experiment in Pittsburgh.

          It’s true they don’t have too many QB options. They are looking for another Sam Darnold. Maybe Fields is their best longer term option since they don’t seem to want to tank. Russ is ok but not great anymore. I’m just underwhelmed with Russ running that offense. They don’t look like the Steelers.

      Ravens just ran the ball right down Steelers’ throat for a TD. Sheesh. Not looking good!

      Division rivals should be a good game. Shame I’m gonna miss it!

        Well Baltimore’s was for the first half. Been kinda porous in the second half. The Steeler’s D didn’t get on the plane,

        It’s fun. They explain in detail calls on the field via Dora, Nate Burleson is awesome and is having fun in the booth with SpongeBob and Patrick, and most of all, it’s funny. They better do the super bowl again. We watched it last year and it was great. My wife wants all the games to have a Bikini Bottom Broadcast.

      I’m a Raiders fan but definitely kind of bummed for them. You gotta wonder if the LA fires got to some of the players

      I just can’t root for the Chargers because of Jim Harbaugh. He cheated to win the national championship last year, got no penalty, and was rewarded with a lucrative NFL contract.

        He continued his track record of post season success, maybe in 7 years the chargers can manage a super bowl with some light cheating.

      You could easily see this game going either way coming into it, but the Chargers just falling apart so utterly and completely was not my expectations. I was thinking we’d get like a 14-17 game

        Greg Roman has been figured out for a while now and his passing game isn’t creative enough to make use of Herbert’s talent. Despite the numbers he had this season. Roman’s strength still is run-game with a running QB. He isn’t a fit with Herbert.

      My god Chargers are shook. They left Will Anderson alone. Sack. Next play, Sack. Then Herbert throws a 86 yard TD. Ok.

      Since that fumble-scramble play by Stroud, it’s ALL Texan. Now a pick-6 end of 3rd. This game’s over.

      Man! both defenses are just flying around! These guys are running on so much adrenaline!

        And Herbert says I can do it too! on the next play.
