    Waste of a timeout. Why you bring in your 3rd RB to run the ball on 3rd and short I'll never know.

    Jackson hurt, Cousins misses a pretty open shot at a long TD.

    Would have been nice to not puss out there with the conservative play calling at the end of that drive. Good start on both sides of the ball otherwise though.

    If you had read the post, it's the "Us Against the World" cliche we're talking about. No one anywhere said people believe they're not a good team. You're getting your Sports Cliches confused.

    Every team every year? Maybe to the minimal possible degree but come on, there are clearly some instances where it's a legit motivational angle for certain teams, and the Cheatriots* fit that billing as well or better than anyone in recent memory. There's a reason some cliches get used over...

    Pretty sure that rule was put in mainly to penalize defensive players who were using audible calls to simulate snap counts to confuse offensive linemen. The rule is vague as shit though, and shifting to me as long as you're not crossing the neutral zone shouldn't be a big deal. Next they'll...

    But the league personnel have the decision to make both teams stop using the headsets or not, and they decided to let it ride b/c problems cleared up. Steelers should be pissed at NFL, it seems.

    Well it's not like everyone didn't see this coming. Only way this gets more of a dagger for the league is if Brady in the post game interview asked if anyone checked to make sure the balls were properly inflated.

    I liked the idea they were finally going to try to improve the O line. It's been Trent Williams and mostly spare parts for awhile now. The running game looked good in Griffin's rookie year with the read option, but has fallen off as his health did. The actual player they got clearly could...

    This is the shit that burns so much. I actually liked most of his draft, Preston and Jones could contribute this year. It's just a total fucking fail at #5 to draft Scherff and then move him inside to guard. If he's your Day 1 starting RT, #5 is okay. If guard is his ceiling why the fuck...

    They should have, or still should if it would do any good (it wouldn't, the cap for those seasons is already gone and already affected those years). Otherwise they can just get some money from the league.

    Well, when you read stuff about him having the worst turnovers/snap ratio of any QB who took at least 500 snaps in the last 2 years, it doesn't paint a rosy picture.

    Dude is 1-7 in starts over the last 2 years. Not much hype. Other than it's not RG3 and hopefully all the drama surrounding that can be gone.

    On board for Captain Kirk. Cutler and Eli must be pumped to have someone else competing for most picks. Cousins will move the ball some, though. I'd almost bet if he plays 16 full games he ends up with more passing yards than Joe Flacco at the end of the season.

    People forget that Brad Johnson was a non bad snap away from NFC title game against the Rams (the year they won it). It's okay though, we dumped him for Jeff George so he went to Tampa and got a ring.

    Even considering releasing him, apparently. But they're wondering if ownership will let them. Snyder needs to mind his shit and let the football guys make the decision. If it's time to move on from him, and there is no trade available, cut him and just deal with the fallout. The fact that...

    So the whole RG3 seesaw continues. Initially cleared to play tonight, but after further tests or consultations or whatever they want to sit him another week or two, and now they're looking at Cousins to be Week 1 starter. It would be nice if they'd just come out and say he's concussed, or we...
