RE: Are the Eagles that good? - coltsfan4ever - 09-25-2016
Pretty shocked about this game. I couldn't watch it because the Colts were playing at the same time. However, from the few moments I saw, it was shocking.
Didn't expect the Eagles to whup on the Steelers that badly.

Genuinely curious. No smack intended.
I missed the first half (group of us had free tickets to Pirates game behind home plate...fun time even though they lost. Again.) And listened to the rest on the way home.
Sounded like the Eagles are real (at least until Wentz has been around enough to get figured out) AND the Steelers were unprepared. Given Tomlin's past I'm not surprised by that. But when nothing is working (blocked FG, dropped TD, no running game, turnovers, etc) its hard to put the blame in one place.
On to next week.

Browns were stupid for passing on Wentz.

To be fair, if they had drafted him he'd probably be injured by now.

People here said the same thing in RG3's rookie year too

Serious question... What the **** happened to Timmons' shin? I didn't see that part but saw blood flowing from it later when I tuned in.

Was listening to one of the SiriusXM stations during halftime in the car and they said he was taken to a local hospital but didn't hear anything after that.

Did anyone else hear either Nance or Simms late in the fourth quarter say that they bet Arnold Palmer was still watching because he was a big Steelers fan? Well, this......

It happens.
Similarly in 2014, the Pats took an ass whipping at the hands of the Chiefs 41-14 early in the season and ended up winning the Super Bowl.
The Steelers will do the same.
The bengals are officially done. Their 2 more wins against the Ravens wont be enough.
RE: Are the Eagles that good? - Vlad - 09-25-2016
I was not surprised the Steelers lost in Philly, they always do.
The Steelers have not won a game in Philly throughout the entire Super Bowl era...the last time they won in Philly was 1965.
Back when the Brown shit stains were the reigning NFL champs.

Steelers didnt lose...they got shit stomped by a rookie QB. But keep downplaying it

Pats have tom brady and bill bellechick, you have tomlin and big ben. Good luck with that.
Its official? So Bengals have been mathematically eliminated then? Guess there is no need to suit up again

If there is any way we can blame the awful announcing of Nantz and Simms for this perhaps we can get them off the air....

Heh. More than likely it was the putrid product that the Rooneys rolled out on the field that did him in.

Yes, you have marvin and that ginger so that makes the bengals mathematically eliminated.
Big Ben and Tomlin have been to the Super Bowl twice as many times as marvin and the ginger.
This professor is formulating the equation as we speak...
