One more point on the magnitude of the scheduling bias here: the Home Division Game Sunday/Road Division Game Thursday has happened 31 times since 2008. There are 32 teams in the NFL. An even distribution would be about 1 time per team in 18 years, or around 3% per team.
The Steeler have done it 4 times, accounting for 13% of all instances. There are 4 teams who have never had to do it in the last 18 years.
They also own 100% of the instances of being on the road for both divisional games on a short week.
Also, the Steelers are 5-0 on Sunday but just 1-4 on Thursday in these instances. It's really an unfair advantage to the home team when this happens, especially in a highly physical division like the AFC North.
@StripesCincy@GoneSouth0619 Lmao those guys just played physical, that’s it. Bengals fans the biggest cry babies about any and everything when they had guys head hunting and twisting ankles at the bottom of piles on live TV 😂.
@Alex_Kozora He’s a good player. But him being a man corner severely limited what we could do on defense, and you saw the rest of the defense get exposed because of it often.
There’s no way this is the dirtiest hit you’ve ever seen when the QB slid late.
I have a REAL solution, REMOVE sliding from the game. Get down EARLY or get hit.
What the defender did after the fact clearly isn’t cool but the hit itself wasn’t as bad as people are saying.
In 2005, a single moment from a loss to the Bengals helped forge a Steelers Super Bowl run.
Bill Cowher and Bryant McFadden remember it like it was yesterday 🔥
Don't look now, but a #Steelers coach is doing creative, cool, unpredictable things with his unit!
It's just 2 weeks, but @Steelers_DB and I talk about early strong impressions of Patrick Graham, his pressure schemes and how the players are performing

People are finding out in real time that this guy is a troll and “hates” every game that comes out lmao, but people were sharing his Wolverine clips left and right like he’s not a troll.
@JPbucco33@aurachaser999 He was asked a question and was ultimately complimenting the kid. You’d be the type to say he’s being an asshole if he didn’t answer the question too lol no winning
