If you is a Steelers fan after the start of this year, you is lejit, I am commiserate with your conundrum.

It's not that hard at 3-3, and could be 6-3 in a few weeks.  But, poorly coached with a JV offense and they could easily be 3-6, as well.

But I wasn't jumping off a cliff like so many others when they were 1-3.  OL and OC have been their biggest problems.  I don't know if the latter can be fixed, but anything resembling even a semi-effective running game will open up the passing game and possibly something approaching an NFL offense.

Although their defense may be a bit of a paper tiger.  Still very early in the NFL season, and the next month is going to determine the direction for most of the teams in the league.  Only a handful of truly good and truly bad teams that I'd be ready to call at this point.

Packers have no receivers but a good game on paper. I’m not rooting for either team…..never been a big fan of Rodgers or the Packers. I do recognize his elite QB talents and how great the tradition is in GB. I’m not convinced they are as good as they are ranked.

I have nothing against the Cards and Kyler Murray is fully likable but I still don’t feel they are the best team in the NFL 


So basically after this game one of these teams is really going to be slated as way better than I feel they are.

If the Packers receiver wasn't concentrating so much on a one handed catch, he could have concentrated on dragging his 2nd foot for the TD.  Somemay think the muffed punt recoverer should have squirmed into the EZ for the TD in the first place, but you can't advance a muffed kick.  Ultimately, the Packers squandered a great opportunity for a TD, but had to settle for the lead taking FG!

Great clock management by Rogers at the end of the half!

Great pick to seal it….Cards choke a bit. No clue why A.J. Green never turned around.

Green Bay doesn’t blow anyone out, but they are really good. Rodgers always seems to adjust when his skill guys go down.

We're in the wrong gig. Goodell paid almost $128 million over the last two years.

It's absolutely hilarious that Goodell is paid multiples more than CEO's of companies 10X the size of the NFL.

I remember when he pushed for his big pay raise (something like to $40M from $10M per year) thinking the guy was nuts.  It's all hush money.  Only explanation that fits.

The 10M Snyder paid as a fine probably pales compared to what he paid Goodell to keep everything quiet as far as email-gate went in regards to his team.

Raiders WR Henry Ruggs III was the driver in a fatal car accident this morning. He will be charged with DUI resulting in death. Bringing back some bad Donte Stallworth memories.

Of course Mike White would break his wrist in this game. Not sure what the injury will end up being, but it didn't look good in slow-mo.
