OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: 5 and 2 Justin who? Hand the Fields to Wilson

[bigdaddyk88]

Vegas is not going to beat the Chargers next week. You’ll need your hero Mikey T to get the gang coached up or otherwise we will be in Baltimore for the WC round.

While it would be easier to play in Houston than Bmore I am not worried about either. Lamar still only has 2 playoff wins and 2 wins against the Steelers in his career.
I kinda like playing the bengals hopefully RW and company can get 400 plus yards again

Saying you're not worried about playing in Baltimore is quite the take.

Chase Brown has a high ankle sprain and is likely out next week. At least the D will only get gashed through the air if that's the case.

Brown is a better receiver than rb he is their Warren. His only cracked 100 yards rushing 1 time
It could be very ugly without JPJ I agree. Its got to be get to Burrow before he kills us

Kenny Pickett, Mason Rudolph, and Mitch Trubisky all threw TD passes today. We were sitting on an elite QB room and didn’t realize it.

A good day for the Save-A-Canada-QB Foundation.

Former Steelers QB Chris Oladokun Could Make NFL Debut Week 18

Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Chris Oladokun has proven to be far more valuable for the Kansas City Chiefs than the team who drafted him. The other quarterback Pittsburgh drafted in 2022 after selecting Pitt’s Kenny Pickett in the first round, Oladokun has spent most of his career on...

That's true, really hoping he gets some action next week. Although I imagine the Eagles have Hurts back in, so we don't get all 4.

Najee having a 1000 yard season feels like Tomlin having a non-losing season, and it shouldn't.

 

[Shockmaster]

We'll find out later tonight, but I wouldn't be surprised if Bengals-Steelers gets picked as one of the Saturday games on ESPN for Week 18.

Najee having a 1000 yard season feels like Tomlin having a non-losing season, and it shouldn't.

It feels that way because it's solely about always being fit and not about making great plays. I love Harris highlights and will argue for the positive parts of his game, but he's a 1st round RB who's not a game changer and the 1000 yard season frame why in precise mockery.

vikings lions should be spicy next week

I would think they want us and Ravens playing same time
Depending on Washington the rams could be division champs tonight or play Seattle for it next week

Fillipponi posted something similar, but he's wrong most of the time, so take it with a grain of salt.

Ideally, every team should play at the exact same time in the final week of the regular season, but the NFL seems hellbent with having as many exclusive windows as possible, hence the Week 18 Saturday double-header.

It would also be really dumb for the NFL to have Bengals/Steelers, Dolphins/Jets, and Chiefs/Broncos play during the same window, but not Ravens/Browns.

Well, the Ravens opened as 18.5-point favorites so I don't think anyone perceives that game will matter.

Probably, but they did beat the Ravens earlier this season. Very unlikely to happen again, especially with the stiff the Browns are now playing at QB. The point being, the Saturday double-header f***s everything up, because the league isn't giving ESPN/ABC two games with no consequence. So they are taking some of drama away from the Sunday games.

 

[bigdaddyk88]

if they are holding the Lions Vikings for Sunday night then the next best game is Seattle Rams if Washington loses tonight. If Atlanta loses then Tampa wins they are in

 

[Peat]

Apparently Pickett played that Eagles game with broken ribs. Which solidifies my opinion that, nothing else apart, the dude is too damn fragile to be an NFL QB.

 

[Goalie_Bob]

Yeah. If ATL wins tonight. I think the Seahawks/Rams game is the Saturday night game. Because the game will matter and the Rams won’t know if their strength of schedule tiebreaker gets them in even with a loss.

Lions/Vikings is pretty obviously the Sunday night game.

I think they go with Chargers/Raiders for 3:30 Saturday game. Chargers have locked in a playoff spot but it does matter alittle bit for seeding. And the Raiders have Bowers setting rookie records that they can mention during the game.

Because the Dolphins/Broncos/Bengals are still battling for a spot. They want them playing at the same time and they can’t have the Broncos start at noon EST. Thus they have them all play at 3:25 on Sunday. I think Ravens/Browns should be at this time as well.

1pm Sunday is the Falcons/Panthers and Bucs/Saints division battle.

All the rest of the crap games between teams that don’t matter are scattered about on Sunday between the Noon and 3:25 start times.

 

[Shockmaster]

Saturday at 8pm.

 

[Goalie_Bob]

So it’s a Hard Knocks Saturday. Guess I shoulda seen that coming.

Yeah and you can pretty much guarantee that the prime exclusive play off game is us and texans.
I do like playing after the ravens game so you can pull starters at halftime if you want
