That game ended the right way IMO

LOL.

I spent the last 3.5 hours outside getting projects done, bringing the Christmas bins down from the attic, and putting up Christmas lights.

My Sunday afternoons have been so much better since I stopped filling them up with crappy football.

Ravens embarrass themselves. Browns embarrass themselves. Steelers embarrass themselves.

Both got what they deserved

The tie means Steelers can go 8-8-1. Tomlin’s never had a losing season

My location has called it since the summer.

I apologized to Mrs Tif for making her watch the game.

Yeah that was some of the worst football I’ve ever watched.

Wonder if this showed the powers that be that Mason is not the answer.

Give Rudolph the starting job.

This didn't age well.

He wasn’t awful but he throws a high, floating, air balloon ball that I’m not sure is going to work in the nfl. He doesn’t have much zip. He had 2 game changing misses….one in end zone and a crucial 3rd down before end of regulation. It was nice to see a QB with some mobility today though.

This, he’s not an NFL QB. Either he throws balloons or way too hard to guys right in front of him.

Mason played alright but he will never be an NFL starter

He played well enough to win, but he also played poorly enough to lose. He is what I've always said, a career backup. You can plug him in for a stretch of a few games and expect to win a few of them. The problem I have with him is that when Ben was out in 2019 he actually got better from game to game. You could see him adapting to the speed of play, sometimes even from quarter to quarter within a game. But he's actually regressed to back where he was at the start of 2019, as opposed to where he was at the end of it. I don't know if that's just lack of reps or what, but it's disappointing.

The fact that they didn't take an L today with QB1 going down less than 24 hours before the kick is pretty good, regardless of opponent.

I watched that game on DVR just now. Laughed out loud a bunch of times. So dumb.

Also, with a hat tip to @Beveridge

8-8-1. We'll call it the Tomlin Special.

What was the deal with the Lions kicker? Career long FG was 35 yards. If he had been semi-competent the Steelers probably would have lost that in regulation.

I mean he missed that 48 yarder by about 15 yards so it checks out

Guy was elevated to the 53 like a day ago or something. He is also 6' 5" and 260 pounds, so maybe throw him in at LB instead of PK.

NO! Mason is garbage. He gets zero credit from me. TRASH!

Haskins would’ve been better on a rainy day.

I don’t think that kick ever even got to crossbar height. Loved it.

That game could send even the most solid couple into counseling.

Haskins is so much more dynamic than Rudolph. And yes, he can throw some bad ones, but so can Rudolph.

Was really disappointed they went with the "safe" choice.

That appears to be the case.

Free Haskins for next week.
