@Defeoman That’s why I’m rooting for the Dodgers to win the World Series every year. The only way to get the other big markets on board is to have them think it’s the only way to stop LA.
@WilliamsonNFL a little late for the mail bag but was wondering if being given a home game on a Thursday night off a short week is essentially being gifted a win.
Home teams are 5-2 with the only teams to lose were the Cardinals and Rams by 3 each. ...
Steelers offense had drives of
:4:04 -- TD
:1:19 -- PUNT
:7:14 -- FG
:6 -- INT
:2:04 --INT
:3:53 - TD Only 3rd qt possession
:3:48 - TD
:1:26 - PUNT
:25 - TD
:7 EOG
Warren rushed for 117 but only got 16 totes...
Defense looked worn out and confused
TNF madness
That Aaron Rodgers Hail Mary attempt traveled 69.8 yards in the air, per @NextGenStats.
that would be the furthest an NFL QB has thrown a pass since at least 2017.
@Mat_Mettler I’m willing to accept payment to be elsewhere or the Steelers can fly me to games. I am undefeated when I attend Steelers games this century.
Good news is that the AFC (especially the North) is terrible, so someone has to make it.
I know they're older than dirt but, the defense is too talented to be THIS bad.
@cjbutler19 Yeah it sucks but the offense should have probably done a better job early. It’s Thursday night football. Weird stuff happens. I’m happy with the progress the offense made and I think the defense will be better.
4-2 is ok. 6-0 would have been amazing 5-1 great but 4-2 ok.
@cjbutler19 Yeah but I’m a realist. Could you not see that they were absolutely gassed ? It’s not an excuse it’s just how it was. Thankfully there’s no more Thursday night games the rest of the way.
@ChrisMuellerPGH I mean he didn’t really get anything for it and they swapped picks. maybe he should have kept flacco and used him to beat the Steelers.
Aaron Rodgers' Hail Mary pass attempt that resulted in an incompletion traveled 69.8 yards in the air, the longest recorded pass attempt since at least 2017.

This was the key to the game. Not only were the turnovers bad they were also horribly timed. On a short week you can not put the defense back on the field that quickly twice in a row. They were gassed and never recovered.
Hate to oversimplify things, but once again, the team that turned the ball over lost.
No matter what has changed about the game, that remains true far, far more than it isn’t. #HereWeGo
Offense turning the ball over twice is still the big issue with this game. That let everything get out of control and the defense getting behind the 8 ball.
Can’t have it happen.
Can’t lose the TO battle 2-0 and win.
@ConnorBattin I mean you can argue all you want but after those plays the defense was just shot. They don’t have endless energy. They were on the field for way too long.
