Steelers vs. Vikes 9/17/17 - Here We Go!
it's easy to misjudge Bryan's speed until you see how much field he covers with each stride. When the DBs in view they're trying to catch up and Martavis seems to be effortlessly pulling away

Steelers vs. Vikes 9/17/17 - Here We Go!
As always I wish the Steelers would go no huddle about 75% of the time. Instead they probably ran it less than 20% of the time last year. Haley won't give up play calling unless it's to allow Ben to save a game.

Steelers vs Browns GTD week 1
I'll be surprised if they aren't 4th again with 3 wins or soSomething something about death, taxes, and Steelers playing down to their opponent. No matter how improved the Browns might be, the Steelers shouldn't have this much trouble with them.Steelers need to get their heads out of their asses

Please go no huddle and let Ben call plays. Cut wire to Haley's mike. Don't need more 2 yard pass routes.

The charmin curtain. Worst team in nfl with a bad college QB scores easily. The worst team in the nfl is definitely not the browns. 4 and 28 last 2 seasons, 20 and 60 last 5 years. Anyone worse should lose their NFL franchise. Their starting rookie QB was benched as a senior starter. This is the bi...

I agree with one of the Steeler talking heads that Dupree is now a concern. Guy is becoming as fragile as Beau Bennett. Totally disagree with comparison tp Jarvis Jones "career". Dupree has shown he has skills / talent. Jones stunk for a 1st round pick. He 's a mediocre nfler. Signed by Cards for mi...

They had a good documentary about the ship on the History Channel a few years ago (before it became a cheesy reality show channel). I may be off on a few details but a lot of guys died from exposure, exhaustion, dehydration etc. They were in the water for days (3?) with some guys that didn't even ha...

Conor Sheary Signs: 3 years, $9mm ($3mm/yr)
I don't see any similarities between TK and Sheary, with all due respect. I doubt a player of this caliber on this type of deal would get any trade restrictions...moreover, you can't have trade restrictions during what would be RFA years... Did not know about the trade resrtictions/RFA years. They ...

Conor Sheary Signs: 3 years, $9mm ($3mm/yr)
I hope it has no trade restrictions. Not a Sheary fan and I don't want to see other young players blocked because of him. He's a different kind of player but this reminds me of TKs contract when he proved later to not be a reliable scorer but they were stuck with him for several years after signing....

I watched that game on tv. Think it was at Soldir's Field Chicago; had a big rainstorm. Lightning started , the Steelers ran off the field without waiting for refs to decide and the game ended.

I remember Murley barley making the team as a rookie along with Ryan Malone. They both got in fights the final exhibition game I guess to show how bad they wanted it. I don't think he lasted long with the Pens and really don't recall him much in the NHL. He was an RPI guy taken in rd 2 or 3 I think....
