New England is so annoying. Know what else is annoying? How bad Tom Brady is when you get pressure on him yet nobody ever outs pressure on him.

Bad clock management by the Cards almost cost them the game. I think the Packers should have went for 2 and the win instead of going to overtime.

Good news Ben hit Wheaton in the chest from 40 yards out. Bad thing was he didn't catch it. Even worse was we only needed on yard and Haley goes full Haley.

Got to give Haley credit, that was an excellent engineered drive.

Pats are gonna smoke Denver next week. The thought of New England being in another super bowl makes me ill.

You knew it was going to happen months ago. It sickens me as well, but nobody can hang with them in this conference.

Steelers at 100% (all healthy and no suspensions) could. It's a shame we couldn't see it. We win the season opener with everyone. We win last night with everyone. I'm so tired of my favorite teams becoming a M*A*S*H unit, especially at the worst possible times.

Thanks for everything this year, Burfict. Right. < disgust >

And shame on the NFL (who penalizes players for celebrating a TD even if it doesn't count; see last week) for retweeting Bengals players' gleeful tweets about the Steelers' loss. I love football so much. I despise the NFL.

Go NFC all the way.

At least the Broncos aren't a bunch of *******. Only team in the AFC I could stomach losing to. Pulling for them to win next week.

Schedule looks incredibly easy next year as 2nd place, won't see Denver or NE but get Indy instead of Houston. As long as everyone comes back healthy and maybe get a CB who can tackle we should be back to the top of the conference.

Hopefully, last years number 2 pick Golson will help at CB.

Also, hope we play Cincy in the first 3 weeks of the season and play NE when Brady ends up serving a 1-2 game suspension on the overrule.

Allow me to disagree. Our recent first round picks:

2010 18 Maurkice Pouncey
2011 31 Cameron Heyward
2012 24 David DeCastro
2013 17 Jarvis Jones
2014 15 Ryan Shazier
2015 22 Bud Dupree LB

2014 others: Stephon Tuitt, Martavus Bryant (a 4th round steal)
2013 others: Some guy named LeVeon Bell, Markus Wheaton
2012 others: Kelvin Beachum a 7th rounder
2011 others: Marcus Gilbert
2010 others: Emmanuel Sanders (couldn't afford to keep him) and some 6th round flop named Brown, first name Antonio.

The non-first rounders above have turned the Steelers into an offensive juggernaut.

The Steelers are set to sign Ladarius Green. This is a great add. He's been sitting behind Gates for 3 years, but whenever he gets in the game he produces. He's an athletic freak and will be one of the best pass catching td's in the nfl. Huge signing.

Yes, plenty. I'm going to miss him. It's going to be too :( not seeing him out there.

Martavis, your news came to me today with Malkin's, so you can get in line with Dalton Prout on my **** list.
