Texans won Thursday game. I think I picked the winner of every Thursday night game so far.

Ben is looking sluggish

No, he is drunk.

Bengals are flawless.

Well that explains it

Yeah picked them to win this game. Buccaneers look to finish last in the NFC South, expect them to have a high draft pick next year.

Looks like Ben has been drinking some coffee now. Steelers offense couldn't get a first down in the first quarter.

If Steelers lose this game it will be because of stupid penalties.

uhhhh.......... no 34-34 now

I meant we need to deal with the flaws. Less late game field goals. Dirty Birds lost.

Bengals got lucky, would have loss if the Bucs started Fritz.

I'll be honest with you Freaky I can see the Steelers/Ravens/Bengals winning the AFC North. Steelers have the Bengals number, Ravens have the Steelers number and the Bengals have the Ravens number. A clear winner of the AFC North won't be determined until close to the end of the season. At worse I see the Steelers finishing 2nd in the AFC North with a possible wild card spot.

Honestly I like the Blue/Yellow outfits, it say's LA Rams. I know since they left St. Louis they wanted a differnt look but the dull blue and white stripe (going for the Rams 50's look) is boring. I don't understand LA. Their team is undefeated but yet there are way more packers fan.

Week 8 picks

Texans over the Dolphins (Toss-up)

Panthers over the Ravens (Going with the home team)

Chiefs over the Broncos (I don't think they will beat them like how they beat the Bungals)

Steelers over the Browns (Oh god please no OT)

Seahawks over the Lions (close game)

Bungals over the Buccaneers (Bungals need a win badly after that ass kicking they got the last 2 weeks)

Bears over the Jets (Da Bears bounce back)

Redskins over the Giants (another close game)

Colts over the Raiders (nobody left on the Raiders team now)

Rams over the Packers (though Rams are do for a loss soon)

Saints over the Vikings (this should be a good game)

Patriots over the Bills (I'm just a Bill, yeah I'm only a Bill)

Eagles over the Jags (Jags are no more)

Cardinals over the 49er's (Toss up, going with the home team)

Bye Falcons/Titans/Cowboys/Chargers

Those are the REAL Rams uniforms. That crap they wore in St. Louis was horrible.

I didn't mind those uniforms for St. Louis Rams, gave them kinda their own identity. But now the dull blue and white stripe is boring

I agree. Marvin Lewis didn't start out great either and CLE's situation is even worse than CIN's was back then.

When Jimmy Haslam hired Dorsey he made Dorsey keep Jackson as GM.

Jackson's position as HC was too insecure to bring Haley on staff.

It looks like Dorsey used this turmoil as an excuse to get rid of them both and bring in his own guys.

If they were going to fire him it should have been after last season. I don't know what the expectations are in Cleveland but if they are thinking playoffs this year they are kidding themselves. They tied the Steelers and beat the Ravens (Jets too) that is something to build on. Now there will be confusion and drama in the locker room.

Think Steelers started slow that game because of the terrible tragedy that happern earlier. Many players said they weren't thinking football. Tomlin lives close by to where it happen.

Agreed. This team didn't have anything to build on from the last 2 seasons. It was about halfway to its "floor" for a productive 2018 (4 wins) and based on the OT games it played it had a puncher's chance to get to its "ceiling" (6 wins). Most of all, it was developing stability, which its leaders seem allergic to.

I agree 100% with you. I like the Rams because they were my deceased Uncle's favorite team

and I know he's smiling now at the success they've had over the last 2 seasons. I also like the

throwback Deacon Jones/Rosey Grier outfits too with the blue and white helmets. I hated how they changed the gold color in St. Louis to that dull Notre Dame look but they did wear the blue and yellow during their sensational Super Bowl season against the Titans.

Exactly. But as a Steelers fan I love the turmoil the Browns keep creating for themselves. It was

dumb as hell for them to fire Hue this season and it was dumb as hell for Haslem to come in and

fire the guy who coached before he hired his guy Mike Pettine because he had Cleveland playing well that season. In fact that season the Steelers only beat them by 3 and 11 points that season but thank you Cleveland for continuing to be a mess. Even though Cincinnati's fortunes isn't nowhere near as bad as Cleveland's I'm glad they keep Marvin Lewis around too because despite a talented roster they are

the AFC's version of the Dallas Cowboys a disaster waiting to happen.
