I honestly don’t know who that is.
I actually heard it on the NFL Network when they were discussing Jameis m.

PFF analyst.

ESPN wrote this about Patriots dysfunction last year.
For Kraft, Brady and Belichick, is this the beginning of the end?

No public drama but they still wrote that.
Ben and Antonio Brown literally had a fight in practice and they have no hit piece out.

ESPN is garbage.
The Steelers have real disfunction and it’s buried.
Antonio Brown will be a Raider next year for the pick the Raiders got from the Cowboys.

 

[Ryand877]

Very disappointed with Antonio and the Steelers.

I'm surprised you didn't throw in the legacy owner conspiracy theory there with the Rooney's.

You think it’s a conspiracy?
The ESPN hit piece on the Patriots was BS.
It was all complaints that were from anonymous sources. The article was called the beginning of the end.
When they went to the SB last year and this are 2 seed.
If that is dysfunction then 27 other teams would take it.

The Steelers literally faked an Antonio Brown injury to get off the field and coverup a fight between a Ben and Brown.
I mean if ESPN wanted to write a piece on dysfunction it’s right here with the Steelers.

 

[Ryand877]

I wonder if the Steelers can get in trouble for misuse of the injury report.

Raiders could easily trade one of their two picks from the Bears or Cowboys for Brown and the Steelers should be happy with that.

A pick in the 20’s is good value for the Steelers if they have to move Brown.

Even if they wait until after June , Steelers still take a financial hit. It feels like they don’t have a choice. I’m not sure this is repairable. I’m being objective here , but this is very disappointing to me.

With the free 14.5 million from LeVeon Bell the Steelers can absorb moving Brown and honestly if you told me the Raiders would give up 23rd pick for him I would do it after all this damage.
He is a stud but that pick could be used by one of the best drafting teams in the league for a player who will help them.

Dolphins to interview their ST coach. Im gonna find a cliff or nice deep ravine

Wow? It wouldn’t shock me if Harbaugh goes to Miami.
Your owner is a huge Michigan booster and will likely pay him a lot.
Your SP teams were exposed by the Patriots. They blocked 2 punts in one game this year.
I think it a courtesy interview.

I pray it is. Id be fine with khaki harbaugh coming to Miami. Im so so so tired of these uninspirational hires. I know i got on Gase but he was our best hire in decades

Packers reportedly schedule interview with Josh McDaniels, multiple teams interested in Patriots OC

Chargers +2.5 this weekend is my lock of the NFL season.

Well, if the owner is a huge Michigan booster, he'll make Wolverine fans happy. They're sick of Harbaugh losing every year to tOSU. They want him gone.

Hey, maybe the guy really stands out. Some people are stars before they are stars.

Hey, maybe the guy really stands out. Some people are stars before they are stars.

Well, he's been their ST coach since 2010. Maybe his light takes as long as those energy-efficient lights to achieve full brightness.

 

[Alsacs]

Chargers +2.5 this weekend is my lock of the NFL season.

They played 2 weeks ago in LA and the Ravens defense completely dominated the Chargers offense.
I wouldn’t touch that game.
West Coast team flying east for a 1pm game is not good for West teams.
I like Colts +2.5 more.

Give it a rest. Why do you care so much?

Give what a rest? You can hate the Patriots and realize the piece by ESPN was a joke. That article was garbage and when it gets coverage day to day on ESPN when it’s released it’s feeds the beast of Patriots haters which ruins sports for the fans of that team.

Were you upset with what Mark Schwartz did to Jim Boeheim with the Fine story?

The Steelers drama x10 publicly bigger and the Steelers fan in this thread would tell you that but ESPN isn’t writing a hit piece by Seth Wickersham intended to legitimize all complaints nationwide like he did to the Patriots last year. Don’t even bother with the Steelers aren’t a national brand either they are on par if not bigger than the Patriots nationwide.
It’s bullchit.

IDK about the season but that's my pick of the wknd as well.
LAC was considered what, 3-4pts better a couple weeks ago based on the line & now they're saying just .5. Obviously you could say that original line was wrong but idk, that Lamar scheme seems like the type of thing that seeing it once gives you an advantage.

With the SU stuff you can argue it actually has an impact wrt the brand and recruiting. The Wickersham piece is a total zero burger. Nobody cares. Only you pretending to so you have something to complain about. If I asked the 8 guys at my poker table today if they'd heard of them or read that it'd be 8-0 'No' and even if one did, so what. If you asked SW himself how much of an impact the turmoil has had on them he'd probably agree with you it's not much.

I participated in a pool of 90 participants this season where you pick against the spread in the NFL. At the end the top 12 finishers get to draft a team for the playoffs. I finished in 3rd so I had the 3rd pick. The first two guys took NO and KC. I'm not a big believer in the other NFC teams getting to the SB (btw there are prizes for getting to and winning the conf title game also) so I had to turn my sights toward the AFC. I wanted to pick the LAC but the extra game is a killer so I held my nose and went with NE. I've taken about six showers today.
