Former Stiller Josh Dobbs starting again tonight. Got his first start last week with only being on the team for 9 days. Great guy. Wish he had the talent to be a starter in the league.

I guess Big Ben is worth an extra 1/2 win.

Still obsessed with Ben. We know he’s worth a lot more wins than Wilson out there in your city of Denver…and he’s signed for 5 years, $242M+, lol

The Steelers should keep Matt Canada. Most people didn’t like the job he did, but he really was able to take the pressure off Pickett the last month and half of the season.

There are some glimmers of hope, but they are gonna need more from the offense next year than having one good drive a game and pulling it out against lousy teams.

This Oline was very solid. Probably the best in the last 5 years. Hopefully Watt stays healthy next year and Pickett continues to improve.

Tomlin is still stale and long past his sell by date. 3 playoff wins in 12 years is unacceptable. Anybody else would’ve been dismissed by now.

Welcome back and great to see some positivity about the Stillers, as Picketts success has had to be hard, especially these last few weeks, and thankfully the Stillers didn’t take Willis as you suggested. He can’t even get a job over Josh Dobbs who’s gotten 2 starts while only being with the team for 17 days.

Football with youth is down in the more affluent neighborhoods I suspect. 48% isn't correct from what I read, but nonetheless it is down by quite a bit.

I would imagine it will slowly go away and move towards what we call soccer as it isn't as violent. Football is a real gladiator sport, but on the flip side I never thought I would see bare knuckle boxing on TV these days or UFC. I would want my kind in different sports other than football. There are better choices out there.
