Coaches hired since 2019. Taylor still has fewer wins than Fat Freddie Kitchens.

Saw this headline today:

Ex-Raiders LB Vontaze Burfict arrested on battery charge in Las Vegas

It must be a first that a former Bengal gets arrested and the headline identifies him with his most recent team instead of us.

We'll....so much for the Stooler's perfect season.

We'll....so much for the Stooler's perfect season.

They were never going perfect, they struggled to win against a bunch of garbage teams, hoping they lose out now and the Browns win the division

I wonder how many of the 72' Dolphins are still around to pop a cork each year as the last undefeated team falls....?

To be clear: I am always glad to see the Steelers lose, and the more embarrassing, the better. But I had a crazy thought last week, when they were still undefeated. Maybe the best thing would be if the Steelers win a Super Bowl this year. Hear me out before you crucify me. Because if they did win yet another SB, wouldn't it be a great time for Ben to retire?

But then I realized that the best, most ironic end of Ben's career would look like this: the Steelers hold on to win the division, but lose enough games that they have to play in a wildcard game. Perhaps against a divisional foe that they've already beaten this year. Like the Browns. And then on the 2nd play of the game a Browns lineman takes out Ben's knee, ending the Steelers playoff run and his career at the same time. Maybe they even sit home watching the Browns bumble their way through to the franchise's first Super Bowl win.

I'm not saying that I'm cheering for a career ending injury, nor do I want the Browns to hoist the Lombardy trophy before we do, but it would be a kind of justice, since he won his first Super Bowl thanks in no small part to exactly such an injury (not to mention a whole lot of fluky luck that whole playoff run).

Anyway, the point is, I'm tired of that guy and want him gone. I know that won't make the Steelers completely terrible, nor will it fix our own dumpster fire, but I'll take what I can get.

The NFL is planning to expand the regular season to 17 games in 2021, pending a new media deal – a historic move that could at least slightly soften an anticipated drop in the salary cap next year.

The #Jaguars plan to meet with Urban Meyer today to continue discussing the team’s head coaching vacancy, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

No deal is imminent and the team has at least one other interview scheduled. But an important step in the process.
