those guys have done well for us this year, no doubt!Yeah, he's a good fit at the moment. He's no Pierre Thomas, but who is?

I wasn’t comparing him to Pierre, Pierre is another class, like Deuce was. But it’s good to see Ingram loyal to a franchise that was giving up on him a few seasons ago..hence getting Peterson in the off season this year

That’s exactly why you don’t drop your head. Hope he is ok, actually he is lucky it could have been much worse.

These Refs are like MLB Umps they want the to make the game about themselves.

Man, Burfict got lit up.

The taunting foul I get, but unnecessary roughness? Looked like a clean block.

EDIT: Okay, in slow mo, from a different angle, it was helmet to helmet. I take it back.

Its a crack back block. That is illegal regardless if helmet to helmet. Personal fouls penalties should stack on top of any others.

If this goes to OT we may literally see someone die

Rooting for Mike McCarthy and Marvin Lewis teams against the Steelers have been very frustrating experiences.

 

[guyver1]

And the sad thing for the Buggles ..is Marvin Lewis will still have a job

Cincinnati I really feel sorry for you

Boooo

I keep trying to picture a reality where he's Fredo in public and Michael behind closed doors. It’s the only way to explain it.

He's making the owners money hand over fist and that's the only thing they care about and that's why he is staying

Any puppet in a suit could be doing the same thing. More money could be had by staying out of court too.

Aren’t those lawyers NFL employees? Then that costs no extra $$

i would say it’s because he has been a good punching bag. Who is to say the new guy would take all the bullets.

Ted Wells and his "independent" investigations of Brady/Incognito were far from free. I'll agree that he's taken quite a few bullets, but many of them were self inflicted. The rubber will meet the road when the current CBA expires after the 2020 season. I wouldn't be shocked if a major bone of contention the players will bring forward will be the ridiculous amount of power held by the commissioner's office.

Just finally saw how Shazier got injured and he suffered a spinal injury and is returning home today

Praying for ya Pittsburgh ..sucks

So one investigation in which you are salty over. No one knows if those were truly self inflicted. Lets be honest majority of the owners were all in on deflate gate, who is saying that all these others were not being their puppet.

As for 2020 until players are prepared to not get paid they will lose.

I'm not salty about Richie Incognito. Self inflicted wounds, where to start? His handling of Spygate, Ray Rice, Josh Brown, Bountygate, 2012 replacement referees, and handling of concussions/CTE are a few. As for Deflategate, it stopped being about air pressure after the first court ruling and become about Goodell's power when it hit the second circuit. Of course many owners were on his side on that one. Based on some of the quotes during the proceedings from Mara, McNair and Jones the other owners can be quite jealous and petty at times.

Richard Sherman when he was asked about the potential strike said if they want to get paid, they'll have to first lose a bit of money. He's right.

Shazier underwent spinal stabilization surgery last night. So it wasn't a spinal concussion or contusion but some sort of fracture. Not good.
