I legit LOLed at the response to Deion's quote.

It would be hilarious if that's the way he meant it, too :)

If you're wondering why the Patriots are struggling with the Bengals, it's because I bet on them.

Hard to beat the Bears man. Ditka, Payton, McMahon, just great talent + chemistry there. Singletary and Dent on the D side of things. Just beasts with Perry blocking things up in the middle.

Raiders fire their second scapegoat of the year.

Let's look at the facts:
-Your roster is complete garbage except for Crosby, Jeanty, and Bowers.
-It's also injury riddled.
-Geno Smith is terrible.

This trainwreck is the front office's fault going back several years, and until you address that, shit ain't changing.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shedeur is super unlikeable: This isn't because of Pickens, it's because "the standard is the standard", and that standard is mediocrity.

Catt probably thinks this is AI :D

Maybe you've got a pic or a meme that i can't see because its being blocked here at work. But i think Shedeur is infinitely more likeable than Watson and Gabriel.

Your work is blocking Twitter/X.

It's a post game interview where he's being arrogant as fuck about beating the Raiders. Saying, "Imagine how good I'll be with a full offseason" and similar shit in the most "I>team" way possible. I'm genuinely surprised he didn't demand the Browns retire his number already.

I've yet to see a single interview with him where I didn't hope someone would punch him. He's an entitled cunt of a human being. I hope he becomes Cleveland's starting QB because I will love watching him blame his coaches and teammates for every loss.

Sorry to be hostile, but I really hate people like that. Also, what did Gabriel do that gets him disliked?

This is who the Giants should have fired before Daboll.

So hard when it's so close to reality. I'd love an 8-9 though!

Hard to be humble when you torch the Raiders! lol

Ha! ok, i think i saw that clip last night on X, didn't end up watching it though. I can see what you're saying, but i think he's actually been a pretty good soldier considering all the (shitty) QB's on the roster and the team really doing nothing to give him a chance.

I don't think he was that good of a soldier. We heard rumblings, his mime interview, and so on.

Shedeur yesterday:
passing: 11/20 (55%)
Passing yards: 209
TD/Int: 1/1
Passer rating: 87.3
His lone TD pass was a wheel route that the receiver did ALL the work (66 YAC)

So out of the 28 qualifying QBs yesterday, 9 finished with a passer rating below Shedeur Sanders’ 87.3 in his NFL debut.
You know the game plan was to be super conservative on offense, let the D control the game, and not let him lose the game. Somehow, he came out of that thinking he's Joe Montana.

I'll say this, it's going to be really fun to root against him.

Well a Steelers fan should never root for a Browns QB. I know i've never liked 1 QB the Steelers have ever trotted on the field. Specially Rodgers and Rudolph!

His interviews, ok.. I see alot more of the day to day interviews that nationals never cover and you'd probably never see unless you listened to Cleveland radio everyday. Its personal opinion and really doesn't matter but i can see why you feel that way.

All i know is that in 6 quarters of play Sanders has had 6 or 7 plays of over 26 yds. Why 26 yards?? Because that was the longest play by Gabriel in 6 weeks of play! and it was on the 6th game! Just nice to see the ball go downfield for once.

Fair counter, although neither's D is as bad as the Raiders. Hell, I think it's unfair to even put the Dolphins in with the Raiders and Jets.


In Steelers talk, a Steelers account posted the below (not all of the remaining schedule) and asked, "The Steelers are 6-5, what will their record be after the next four games?"

Best case scenario, imho, is 8-7. They're losing to the Bills and Lions, and I just now noticed the Dolphins game is on at night, which is apparently after Rodgers' bedtime. I think there's a better than 80% chance they go 0-4 over the next four weeks.

ESPN says that Pitt is only favored against Miami. Though the Bills game is close to a toss-up.

Catt and I went off on gamblers the other day, but this guy might have a legit argument.

I've never seen a team do that in my many years on this Earth.

(For Stranger, because you cannot see it: The Browns punted from the Raiders' 29 instead of kicking the FG, and the under won because of that.)

Wait, if the over is 38.5, and there's 34 points... the FG wouldn't have mattered. (0:23 timestamp)
