They can be, 100% agree, but I think we have been spoilt by the other games so far.

And now the Patriots have broken the game up with that TD

Hard to see the Chargers scoring 2 x TD's from this point. As it stands, they are going to have to take risks to give themselves a chance anyway

Need some big plays right now

Gonzales out is big. And now the Chargers have to go fast.

Also now Herbert has to go win it now, when it was just a FG I think neither side wanted to concede and go down.

And as I type this, Herbert turns it over.

Game over.

I thought he wasn't going to secure it, thought it was a few inches too far but he stretched and raked it in.

In the windy conditions as well.

We may get handled next week but that was worth the season alone.

Yeah I watched it again and it was a great catch.

Seattle is going to be tough, real tough and I dont think you guys can win there but its been a hell of a ride for you.

Todays game is a true steelers game... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I think Rodgers has come to the end of the line. He was a great player.

offences win games

defences win championships

Yeah I agree but in saying that, the play calling has been pretty crud too.

It's sort of like defense gives you the chance and offense takes the cake.

With Kittle healthy I would have given them a long shot but I really think this one might be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Another great effort despite being beleaguered with injuries.

I'd love to see what Herbert could do with a half decent line in front of him.

Amazing career at the Steelers and widely respected. It's probably the right time.

And that's right, Knoll was there 20+ years, Cowher 11 and someone else I don't know 🤣

John Harbaugh is set to sign with the Giants! Huge for them.

Sam Darnold listed as questionable with an oblique injury, Cant see him missing but it could be interesting as its not a great injury for a thrower.

So Darnold did strain his oblique today in training, he said he will be right to play but this is will limit him and if he tweaks it in game it might no only matter for this week but if they win the game the week after.

Surely Salah makes him have to scramble and twist and turn.

Bills 7-12

Niners 1-6

Pats 1-6

Bears 1-6
