mjp28 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I don't think anyone here or anywhere will debate the black and white (not gold) facts: From 1933 to 1970+ the steelrz stunk, -0- playoff games. From the 1970+ on the stable ownership, FO, coaching vastly improved helping the overall team performance. EOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a far better franchise than the Browns. This cannot be debated, and one can only hope that Haslam sells or moves the team. Ben showed why he is headed to the HOF on the first ballot.

Made the Browns look like dumb schidts The Browns were dumb shites for letting Haden go. But the Jags just scored 45 points on that defense.....so literally no one on that defense made plays. It is what I said preseason: The Steelers offense will be good enough for them to win the division (because overall the other teams in this division are just mediocre at best...overall). But, I said, they will get bounced early in the playoffs because that defense just isn't very good at all.. So, my prescience was right on. Should I brag about it the next 100 years as Glommie would?

He made some great throws, even though, like Brady, his release has grown slow. These Steelers are far from a great team....and far from the best in the AFC. They got beat down twice by JAX...and lost to NE. And where the hell do you get it that Tomlin played prevent defense? They were down 28-7 at one point. BR is a great QB and will be headed to the HOF.....(but don't be surprised if he does NOT get in on his first ballot......a number of voters very well may not vote for him at first because of his history of being a rapist). And the Steelers are not a better franchise than the Browns.......but at this point they DO have better ownership, and coaching (you would not argue that Hue is better than Tomlin...would anyone?). If you count their fans as part of the franchise...they suckass relative to the Browns. (but fans, no, have nothing to do with it) We have to hope our new GM and group: Dorsey, Highsmith, Wolf....can turn things around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVED that! Here is a point I addressed above: Can a team's fans be considered "part of the franchise". I think not. But it is a fact...that stadium was emptying out even when the Squibs were making a comeback and got within striking distance. Now...THAT is a fan base that are just a bunch of Pink Tacos.

I see why he wants to retire. Not sure about that. BR certainly not retiring. He has always been the biggest liar this side of DT...and about as big of a drama queen. At least now he says he will be back. And he will still have A. Brown...and though Bell may run off....he still will have the Mike Munchak coached OL in front of him. And they will be good. But their defense is as bad as the Browns...so their offense BR/Brown et al will have to carry them again. And...it is unlikely that the other two teams: Ravens/Bengals...will improve much if at all. So....like this year, they can make the playoffs by default. And just getting in always gives a team a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownsFan4Evr Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I think Roethlesberger is gonna be one of the QB's who don't know when it's time to hang it up. I'm glad he's coming back, because I think his best days are behind him. He's looking old and used up. Only reason he looked good in the second half was because of his receivers. He basically just "threw it up" and the receivers made amazing catches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike our beloved Brownies who have a rookie quarterback , well second year guy shortly and zero deep threats the steelrz have the best WR in the NFL (and on my FL) and a good bunch of other targets.

Nobody saw the Viking or Eagles being this good. You know, the Browns could very well beat Pitt next year for a win and the Ravens and Bengals steal a win from them and then division is a closer horse race after you add the other games that Pitt will lose. Bell says that he will not play under the franchise tag again. Bryant could be gone with JUJU getting more playing time. If you ask me Ben has lost confidence in Tomlin. His stupid decisions led to their downfall again.Tomlin is a player appeaser talking smack along with them. Rumor has that Mitchell was outside the Jags locker room before the game running his mouth to them. The only sure bet in the NFL is that things will change. I think it may be more that BR has lost confidence in Todd Haley....so he may be the one to go and not Tomlin. Steelers will not can a coach that just won a division. Are the Squibs really thinking hard about tagging Bell? I suppose he would be considered one of the top 5 RBs in the league. And I am curious as to why these stupid players think the franchise tag is so bad? You are paid the average of the Top 5 players at your position in the league. ...even if you don't come close to being that. (though..Bell does). Is it because they really want more money? Or because they want a longer term deal....more security and all that? The Steelers will be in contention as long as BR is playing there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
