And I see that the Packers are kind of hammering the Cowboys right now And that's a good thing Gipper.... I put South Americas Team and their FRAK fans at #4 on the hate o meter right behind all our AFC North rivals.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I have no love for the Rovin' Radahs, the Kroenke cop out Rams, and off in the distance the Chicago-St. Louis- Arizona Cardinals either. But since the Cards currently suck, can't hate on them too much for the sins of Bidwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Wrote this up a couple days ago... Good week last week.... took losses where I could afford them and killed it where I could not. Let's keep it rolling... Arizona @ Cincinnati (-3.5) --- Sun 10/06 12:00 PM I can only assume that CIN was made the fav because they are at home... they sure haven't earned it. AZ has shown more signs of life in one game than the Bagels have in four.... cumulativly. Prediction: AZ 27 CIN 17 Baltimore @ Pittsburgh (+3.5) --- Sun 10/06 12:00 PM Beware the home dog or bank on the rebound? Important decision as this is a Daily Double. I'll take the former... I think we exposed BLT's Offense and it'll take more than a week for them to reinvent themselves... if they can. And while PTG does not have our D, they have a good D... more than good enough to keep BLT's O in check and probably chip in a score. The rest of the time? PTG has enough on O... just enough... because they have QB who knows his limitations and is perfectly happy to dink his way to a “W”. That plus Conners looking rejuvenated ought to be enough. Prediction: PTG 23 BLT 13 Cleveland @ San Francisco (-3.5) --- Mon 10/07 07:15 PM It ain't going to be easy, but this week I think it will be... We've found our identity on Offense. We're formidable on Defense. Same can be said of SF, but I think we are showing just a bit more of those qualities... and we are learning how to win. We build on a big, divisional win last week with our first victory in a nationwide, prime-time game (against a good opponent). Prediction: CLE: 20 SF 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, a KO by definition is a severe concussion. I'll have to back up the tape (because I didn't see the hit) but the clip on NFL.com of him being helped off the field- Rudolph looked like he thought he was up at the North Pole helping Santa get ready for Christmas.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvoethe Posted October 7, 2019 Report Share Posted October 7, 2019 Jaw bone cutting off oxygen to brain is different from brain slamming into skull. I bet the way his head hit the turf when he collapsed probably concussed him more than the hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey folks THE SEASON IS STILL YOUNG! It's not near over. ........well except maybe for the steerlrz unless Bradshaw, Swann and Franco comeback.

Rudolph likely won't miss much time and hodges is solid. The roughing the passers on Ola to send the game to OT was one of the worst calls I've ever seen.

Disgraceful I can easily admit that game was horribly officated, on all sides. As someone who is extremely vocal against how lousy the referees have been for several years, it's just another drop in the bucket. The Earl Thomas hit on Rudolph was roughing, but not sure I'd consider it dirty. I'm still extremely baffled they let the dude walk off the field though. It honestly look like he might have been dead (not being funny) as he was going down. I get that's what happens when you got out cold, but still. That's a serious miscue. I'm glad to hear he's doing okay though, that was awful to see. It makes you glad the NFL at least has the protocol in place to make sure he's cleared.

If it's about protecting the qb like the say it wasn't clean. He also launched but I also understand at full speed shit happens and Thomas has always been a big hitter. He is getting fined and there is talk of suspension whether it's right or wrong. The officiating across the league has been horrendous. The game yesterday was horrible. They legit gave the Ravens the game. It may have never gone to overtime if not for the horrendously called roughing the passer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it Parcells or Billy B who said "your record is what it is". Lotsa luck playing the Chargers on the road prime time Sunday night. The Steelers are certainly a good enough team to beat up on the dregs of the league, you get another bye after the bye playing the tanking Dolphins. If you lose to them, you're never going to hear the end of it from this board. Your backup to the backup QB did look OK, but Tomlin's mantra "next man up" well, you're running out of men at QB. BTW, Ditto the Niners backup LT & CB having to deal with Garrett and OBJ respectively. We're going to find out tonight if Richard Sherman has any gas left in the tank, he can't cover two guys at once. And the Browns are finally at full strength on offense with Higgins and Callaway back at WR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give them wins against the Dolphins, Bengals, Cardinals, and Jets. That takes them to 5-4. Meaning they will have to win at least three against the Chargers, Colts, Rams, Browns twice, Bills, and Ravens just to get to .500. Possible? Sure, but not likely if Rudolph is out for an extended time. FWIW, the Bengals starting LT Cordy Glenn is still out from a concussion he suffered in preseason.

For an easy example, the hit Burfict had the other week is the definition of a dirty play. Earl will likely get fined, but I didn't see a dude head hunting on that play. I'm not sure I see a "launch" there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Steelers medical cart broke down and had to be pushed off the field. I am not kidding. They needed more men on the field to push that off than was used to walk off Mason. https://nypost.com/2019/10/06/mason-rudolph-hit-steelers-medical-cart-controversy-emerges/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodges is the 4th string QB, Dobbs was 3rd string and they traded him to Jags. But Hodges may be an undrafted free agent, but he looked very good for a rookie. But I see them winning about 6 games. So much for "Tomlin never had a losing record" crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, such claims as "But we are the best 1-4 team" is moronic. This Vaga fella is gonna be eating serious crow very soon. Pitt won't win more than 6 games. But the good news is they will still keep the overrated Tomlin. The Steelers are looking the 80's right in the face. Ben kept them winning divisions in spite of Tomlin - those days are over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
