if Deangelo Williams can play, the Steelers will make the Super Bowl. The NFC though, shit, I don't know, ARZ/CAR/SEA all looking sharp

SKOOOLLL VIKINGS, LET'S WIN THIS GAME!

Bengals have been my mistress team this year. I believe!! There's a first time for everything!!

As a Chiefs fan I hope you get destroyed

As a Chiefs fan, now I get to watch my team's miraculous comeback to make it to the playoffs turn into them folding like a lawn chair!
This year I think we will be ok
NoMoreRhymesNowIMeanIt
Love that the "winner" of last night's game has to play Seattle while the loser gets to host Washington.
PerfectlyCromulent
Loser goes to Washington, division winners get a home game regardless of record. Also, If GB had won it would be MIN @ GB and SEA @ WSH

and the home...of the...CCCHHHIIIEEEFFFSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's good being a Chiefs fan this year! We can't always say that.

I've been a Vikings fan all my life, but the 98 team hurt me so bad that I just never watch the games.

If the ten year soul crushing cycle continues we have a few more years before they inflate our hopes only to crash in spectacular fashion.

So I have to wait until Sunday night for this horrible Packer season to finally end. Great.
They're playing the Redskins....i think you're gonna have to wait a little longer than Sunday

Ahh I was looking for a fellow Panthers fan! With home field locked up all throughout the playoffs, we've got a shot! Keep pounding!
What great season so far, I just really hate that KB is on the sidelines for all this. #PantherNation

Cam will get mvp hands down. #keeppounding
geneparmesan07
My girlfriend's dad hasn't been able to use his PSLs this year...it's been SO AWESOME. I'll be at BOA for the 1st playoff game too.

I have been with the Panthers from day one, and it feels good to have such a great season! WOOT!!
SouthernFriedGeorgian
It feels good knowing we blew your perfect season.
It needed to be done. Now the pressure is off, and we can focus on the Big One. So, yeah! Thanks!
Damn that's a good point. Oh well the win was needed for us too
AaaaaaaaaaJ
I still can't believe my Texans somehow won the AFC South after going 2-5 at the end of week 7

Go Cardinals! Big Bad Red Bird Gang FTW! Peck their eyes out and consume their souls! MWAHAHAHAHA

Peteybird1112
As a Packers fan, there's no way we win this year.. Just sayin.
Sotajarocho
If you want a team that's popular overseas and is not hated on the US and is still pretty successful, go for the Steelers. I'm a Vikings guy
Blarjgrhgajhfjdfldghuihfb
You've got more chance than the Redskins at least.
LoseNotLoose
I actually feel better about our chances than the packers this year.. And I'm a Vikings fan.
phrumdamentals
Dude we haven't looked that great since game 1 vs chicago. Most of the 1st 6 wins were real close, then small problems became big problems
aselfdefeatingattitude
When we lose to the Vikings you know things aren't looking good.
LazySMURPH
As a Vikings fan I agree
axelhoff

As an Australian that picked the Packers to follow because why not...I was really enjoying football for the first few weeks :P
ArcticPanda
I picked the seahawks to follow in 2013 because I liked the jerseys the most. Turns out it was a good choice :p
Haha nice, a friend and myself each arbitrarily picked teams after playing an NFL game on the PS2 so I don't even know how long ago xD
Yeah I knew absolutely nothing about the NFL being from the Netherlands. Big fan now
I'm afraid to tell anyone in Aus I like the NFL, cop so much shit following it over here. "Too much padding" or "Too many ads".
Play Abbrederis and Janis. Seriously. What do you have to lose?
RyWei91
Janis island has been empty since about week 10
FunkiestOrc
Janis Is just fast and he is not great
James Jones ftw. There a reason the other team puts their best guys on him. No if only we had an offensive line
TravDrinksBeer
The O-line is made up of twigs and berries holy shit are they terrible
condor120
Shame James jones is now slow as shit
Mclovin21
Abby def deserves more playing time. Janis can't run a route to save his life, though. We should play more 5 receiver sets with the hurry up
DangusStank
SKOL Vikings!
Got up 6 am this morning to watch the game skål from Sweden
supercalifrajelisticexpealidocious
hope your heart stopped like mine did, several times, in the 4th quarter lol.
I think i woke up the neighbours! Went from YES to Fuck and back to YES
in the time span of four minutes!!! hahahah
Ye! That last block or what ever Barr did in the end zone! Jesus those 20-30 seconds took away like 5 years of my life
last night was all i wanted.
Grant0
That was a very satisfying finish
Except now we have the Seahawks. Sigh...
still possible. look at the beating the cardinals took recently. they WERE the number one team.
ctth0mas
Any Given Sunday. It'll be a tough game but playoffs aren't supposed to be easy. We're division champs and hosting a playoff game. Success
hell to the yes!
Essla
My picks for this week are Seattle, Green Bay (unfortunately), Cincinnati and Houston. Thoughts??
Evellia
I'm a Texans fan, but really doubt we'll win again this season. Losing our left tackle and not having a very good run game is going to fail.
hairygopher1369
Yea.. I'm gonna go with KC at the very least winning this weekend if not beating Denver again for the divisional. Crossing fingers though
rockhawkman
Unless Maclin's hip injury keeps him out AND Justin Houston's out another game, the Texans have no shot against KC, otherwise I agree
PitbullsAreTheBest
Good calls NFC and bad calls AFC. Wild card teams are gonna tear it up.
PoIluticorn
Nothing in the AFC would surprise me at this point. What a crazy ass conference.
Schex44
Chiefs have been on fire they're not losing to Houston
They are playing Green Bay, not Houston
It literally shows just above in the post that they're playing Houston...
Yessir!
I can see the Vikings beating Seattle to be honest. Not sure Houston can do enough to beat the Chiefs either but close calls I'd say.
SEA @ MIN will be different than a few weeks ago. AP will get the ball more. The MIN D will be healthier. SEA still wins though I say.
ScarletAndGrey
I'm from Cincinnati and a gigantic Bengals fan. I'm 23 years old. I have never seen a playoff win. I think it'll be the steelers
I'm worried, but I feel that as long as we stay level headed (and get Dalton back), we'll win.
the vikings actually making the playoffs and taking the title last night was all i wanted. we still have room to grow.
TheThirdKindofHeat
"Congratulations, you won the NFC North. Your reward? Getting to play Seattle in the first round!"
double edged sword lol. at least the packers don't have the title!!
Eddyeagle
Wish we would get rid of AP so the offense is less predictable and teddy could step up and grow as a qb.
mirwin13
Yeah those first ballet hall of fame running backs are such a pain, and so easy to come by.
hey now. no need to get hostile. he was just expressing his opinion man.
He is getting older, could get a decent draft pick for him or open up a lot of cap space, and did okay without him last year
Don't see the problem wanting to move on under a new coach, a great young defense and a good young qb. Have to move from ap at some point
So fucking happy that they have Zimmer and picked Teddy over Manzel...have had my vikings Jearsey on since 6am this morning and saw the game
never knew it then but it was for sure their best pick.

I don't understand how they can fire a coach every year and expect results.
You're thinking rationally so of course you can't understand Browns logic

I don't think it matters, since Haslam keeps hiring player personnel who are business men, not football gurus. We're fucked. :/

Thank you kind sir, go Cards!

As a packers fan, I don't think they are going anywhere, they are not a good team. They could maybe beat the reds but I don't see them going
unfortunately you guys won the game yesterday by losing Seahakws gon crush the Vikes
All the Packers have to do is beat the Redskins. The Packers can lose any game after that.
Much farther
PizzaPugIsMyDrug
As a Redskins fan, if they do go all the way, I'll share that hat with ya. Proud of the squad so far, but I don't expect much more.

Kirk Cousins is fucking tearing it up man, I think they could do pretty well
Same as a Texan fan.

They'll beat the packers they're actually pretty bad
I sure hope so. My Redskins shirt is filthy, but I've worn it since the winning streak began, so I hope my sacrifice isn't in vain!
yeah I've got skins over gb too.

Just a question.. Where do you sit on the whole Redskins name thing?
TBO, I don't care. It's always meant something honorable to me, but I'm not in the demographic who could get upset by it.
lilkingtrshmouth
Even if they do beat the Packers they'll be annihilated by the Panthers again. Once I saw this all of my excitement was gone.
The Packers are super banged up, and if the seahawks beat the vikes, so are the cardinals. Don't count them out so soon
Manstof
You better deliver
If they will it all, and @mehwhyshouldithinkofsomethinunique delivers half the hat to me, I'll give it a sporting try lol

While I welcome sport content here too, a playoff schedule is not the slightest interesting at all. It's something you google if you need to
To you it isn't. The moral of this thread is that the world doesn't revolve around your interests and neither does this site.
There are plenty of my interests that I would never want to see on the FP, because I know it doesn't appeal to everyone. This would be one.

That's an absurd stereotype too. I would be the majority of people on this site enjoy outdoor activities and ppl. Now the vocal minority...
You're right and I agree. I over generalized.
Also I think it's safe to say those divisional matchups will be the AFC and NFC Championship games. Arizona wins it all. They will stop Cam
Ehhh, but after losing to Seattle? As a former Bengal, I'm all for Carson, but that was a bad loss IMO
Dude Carolina lost to Atlanta. Are you really wanting to compare bad losses? At least Seattle isn't trash
True, but all I'm saying is that if you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. You guys beat us (Cincy), and that was a good (1/2)
win, but a loss this late in the season warrants room for concern. Trust me, I'm rooting for Arizona.
And I'm not saying the Bengals are THE best, I'm just giving your team credit.
They aren't my team. I'm unfortunately a Detroit native. I just think Arizona's D has the best shot to shut cam down.

I don't like the sport hate but I also appreciate that Imgur is a community of nerds who stereotypically aren't very sporting
blondesci
I really do think they'd love sports statistics though, I've seen some pretty great data visualizations for it. Granted I love football
Barkinsons
IDK the nerds I meet in academic careers are typically sporting, but that's probably a selection bias
Same. Sports stats FTW
MyLifeisaComplicatedDrinkingGame
Why does it have to be a community of nerds and not just a well represented online community?
Because such a site, given the content, can never be considered a random selection since typically such sites target a demographic.
Imgur is for everyone who likes funny images
That includes people from all types of groups
PlutosBeard
Give imgur more credit than that! I played baseball in college and my last post was origami. We can be both nerds and jocks here
I'm not saying exclusively nerds. I don't consider myself a nerd but i'm here and like both sporty things and some nerdy things.
I was in AP Physics and played Varsity Football. I don't understand the need to pigeonhole people.
SquirrellyWhirly
Precisely. I was a college cheerleader/actuarial science major, analyst now, & I love football. It's possible to have varying interests.
No shit! I passed exam P in Nov am and trying to get a job as an actuary rn! What made you go the analyst route?
I kind of lucked into it. After graduating I decided I didn't want to be an actuary. I still love the material, but not exams til I'm 50.

I get force fed it by family, friends, television, the internet and any other means of communication so tbh Im personally tired of seeing it
Ok there's like one sports post to every 100 anime/Star Wars/parks and rec/whatever else post
Also there is a difference between just skipping over it and leaving some douchey comment about how lame sports are
Yeah thats uncalled for I agree. I dont leave those types of posts myself but I can see how it might be annoying.
SiameseCitys
I love sports, I get your position, but I'm here for funny or interesting-- not things I can see on my ESPN app.

In fairness this is like posting the schedule of when Dr. Who is set to air.
Except it isn't at all. Even remotely.
How is it not? It's a list of games with times. It's literally a schedule.
It's a bracket. It isn't like this was a set schedule for the season. The last game decided most of the placements for these teams last nite
A recently updated schedule for more important games than usual is still just a schedule...

The panthers haven't won a SB yet... Unless you're counting this year in advance...
Well shit. I forgot that they lost the year they went. Still sucks being a Falcons fan. At least we beat them!
After we went on a downward spiral I kinda hoped that we lost every game in hopes of a better pick. At least we stopped that undefeated BS
justino37
Me too. Until Cutler is no longer the QB, it's hard to feel any kind of optimism.
I say no optimism until new front office, I think the bears will pull a blackhawks, owner will pass and team will immediately stop sucking
Dont get me wrong I do not hope for death for the lady but the bears need a major change. We have been doing the same shit since Papa Bear
He's better than their O-line-- and it's too bad the Monsters of the Midway mentality is gone.
TheFeralDog
Except you did FAR better with Cutler than without this year. Also, rumor is Forte won't be on the team next year, thoughts on that?
I know Cutler isn't "technically the worst", but I've grown to have a lack of tolerance for that face of his. Forte is getting old. 1/2
2/2 Bears should have traded him earlier in the season and began the tanking process earlier, imo.

Which part of north Chicago are you gonna live (or are looking to live?) One of my sisters lives just a couple miles north of Wrigley Field.
Ahh just near O'hare Airport in the suburbs. I only say Chicagoan because it's easier when talking about sports :p
That's cool bro. I like sports too...wanna be friends?
Sure man. Though I'm moving soon now that I'm graduating... Good luck with the cold up here!
Chicagoan includes the suburbs because it's easier to say that than ", which is right by Chicago" or "from Chicagoland."

Yeah, he's a disaster. Glad he's not going to last. Although I'm sad we're going to pick up ANOTHER Qb.
Sakusami
I'm with you there... Maybe we can draft a good coaching staff next year...
Well, Pettine is out. So there's that. We're off to a good start. I just hope we don't draft another QB.
JediWithin
I'm a Bills fan, you've been to the playoffs more recently than we have
Hey, the Bills looked somewhat solid this year. I had hoped their defense was going to be something great.
It's exhausting when every year is "The year the bills finally breakout" lol
I feel your pain. Although I hate them because I picked up their defense with prospects of them being amazing...
That must be rough as hell...what is with that team? Never got why they always end up in bad situations :s
The Browns just have poor leadership. That's my thought at least.
Ye, lets hope the new head coach can sort out that QB problem u have had for a while
Wouldn't that be nice. It won't happen... I hate to be negative, but this happens so often I don't expect much from them.
NowDoThatVoodooThatYouDo
Some teams (Browns being the best example) refuse to let coaches/GMs have time to develop their systems and teams which typically dooms them
Ouch. I'm always curious how-- like why'd you start? Why remain? Unless you're 60+ years old, when have they made you happy?
When I started watching Football I was in a phase where I always rooted for the underdog. Well... 10 years later, Still rooting for them.
If the Bengals get Dalton back, we have a damn fine chance.
bhpott01
I couldn't agree more

A lot depends if DeAngelo Williams is out too, their offense is no joke atm...

He's not going to be in vs. the Steelers. I don't know if I can handle a first round loss to Shitsburgh. I was praying for a chargers win.
crimemcgruff
I was praying for a jets win. I didn't want the Steelers in at all.
capthammerreynolds
That's the thing holding you back McCarron will be your starter in a year or two.
Daltons not going anywhere soon, also, our offensive coordinator hardly trusts McCarron throwing on third downs.
I'm just saying he's really close to being lumped into a category with Tony Romo and Matt Ryan. I think McCarron is more clutch.
Dalton had the number one qbr going into to week he got hurt. So... no to that
Hahaha nahhhh.
That defensive front a power running game Aj freaking Green all you need is a quarterback to power the system
Yeah, but he's not a franchise guy. Plus that's depending on whether or not we can keep everyone (defense and offense) together.
But I agree, because Joe Flacco has some rings.
MarkKnightRises
The same chance in the past playoff games? Prime time Dalton!
He's grown and he has a brilliant supporting cast. I'm very optimistic.
reliable target. We just need em to stay healthy.
Ballzout64
Dalton is consistently the most inconsistent QB in the NFL imo. He has gotten better though I'll give him that.
Have you watched him much this season? He's been playing very level headed lately, and I think Eifert has contributed to that. Good...
I'm a huge Steelers fan but Dalton's a standup guy and great player. He tends to get unfair blame for what often is Marvin Harrison's fault.
I'm just goofing. I like the guy, and I think he has a solid career ahead of him. That being said, Steelers all the way!
Ahh there it is! Haha, round 3 baby. I'm both excited and nervous as fuck.
Yup, I'm loving the rivalry right now with these two teams. I am happy that we get another go at each other! To a great game, cheers!

if Deangelo Williams can play, the Steelers will make the Super Bowl. The NFC though, shit, I don't know, ARZ/CAR/SEA all looking sharp

Yea.. I'm gonna go with KC at the very least winning this weekend if not beating Denver again for the divisional. Crossing fingers though

Unless Maclin's hip injury keeps him out AND Justin Houston's out another game, the Texans have no shot against KC, otherwise I agree

The super bowl is one of the most televised events world wide annually, so this is wrong..
dannycakes
The world cup is every 4 years and still has more viewers than the super bowl does. Check your facts next time.

I said one of the most.. check my sentence before telling me to check my facts professor dipshit

Ya well by your logic every major tournament is the most televised events. That's why they're championship games.

I hate Dr. Who, Firefly, Anime, Sports Ball, Cats and other animals, sob stories, and everyone on imgur.

I bet you're great at parties. That you probably never go to because you hate everything good in this world
Mirawatts
I missed my friend's new years party because I hate being around people I don't know and I'm not interesting in meeting new people.
Disgracefully
You are a hero.
BabydickJones
I hate anyone who calls it "Sportsball" in an effort to seem nerd-fashionably distanced. You know what sport it is, fuck you.

As an art student in college, this...
Mirawatts
I call all sports, sports ball, to belittle the sport and the fans. This applies to eSports as well.
TheWanderingDrunk
I bet you're a huge fan of nerd show
Mirawatts
Never heard of it. If it helps, I hate nerd culture even more than watching sports ball. It's a cringe fest.
BabydickJones
Then you're a twat, and you should continue on because you are clearly on a holy errand of the Internet twat gods.
Mirawatts
I'm not on a holy mission. I'm just here because I hate everything and want to see everything burn.

Firefly tho? D:
Schmedes
I thought Firefly was ok but not great when I watched it. The internet has made me dislike it more.
thegrimnar
Yeah look I can understand hating everything and everyone but Firefly? Really?

Even though imgur's servers only work ~60% of the time; imgur has the best website to browse random images in a never ending fashion.

I hate being a Bears fan.

I hate that you're a Bears fan, too. Go Pack Go!

supraman2turbo
As a bears fan I think that is the secret we all hate ourselves a little bit. We are a team that goes from one clusterfuck to the next
MizKriss
As a Chicago fan, football season has been met with a resounding "meh" for the past few years. Wake me up when it's time for baseball.
smashpro1
Go, Cubs, go.
BoxOChatter
Coming from a bears fan in Minnesota, I hate this season...

Trying being a Chargers fan.
harpoonyourboyfriend
Rams fan. Why is our coach not fired yet.
SiameseCitys
I hate being a Cowboys fan. I've never even been to Texas! I get all the hate of being a pompous winner-- without any of the winning.

I would say chin up, but really I'm right there with ya

Da bears

It could be worse, you could still live in Chicago but be into baseball.

White sox fan...
TurdsOfWisdom
I hate being a lions fan. If we would have just lost we would have gotten the 9th pick. Now since we beat you we get the 19th pick
UhhmDenimChicken
Seriously. We can't even lose right! OR win right! Fuck it
BirdPersonandMorty
We can't draft worth shit so I'm happy with a win and another good game for Megatron
TurdsOfWisdom
Potentially last game for megatron too
TheMortyistMorty
My roommates a lions fan and got pissed at me for them beating us hahah
Brunoemf90
Try being a Falcons fan. Starting 5-0 and then being gutpunched several times. FML
WeAreTheNSA
Was about to comment the same thing. Next year will be better.
LostContext
This. 1000x this. :(
Philomathematic
My favorite part is that we're the only team in the South without a championship.
Brunoemf90
The panthers haven't won a SB yet... Unless you're counting this year in advance...
Philomathematic
Well shit. I forgot that they lost the year they went. Still sucks being a Falcons fan. At least we beat them!
Brunoemf90
After we went on a downward spiral I kinda hoped that we lost every game in hopes of a better pick. At least we stopped that undefeated BS
justino37
Me too. Until Cutler is no longer the QB, it's hard to feel any kind of optimism.
supraman2turbo
I say no optimism until new front office, I think the bears will pull a blackhawks, owner will pass and team will immediately stop sucking
justino37
supraman2turbo
Dont get me wrong I do not hope for death for the lady but the bears need a major change. We have been doing the same shit since Papa Bear
SiameseCitys
He's better than their O-line-- and it's too bad the Monsters of the Midway mentality is gone.
TheFeralDog
Except you did FAR better with Cutler than without this year. Also, rumor is Forte won't be on the team next year, thoughts on that?
justino37
I know Cutler isn't "technically the worst", but I've grown to have a lack of tolerance for that face of his. Forte is getting old. 1/2
justino37
2/2 Bears should have traded him earlier in the season and began the tanking process earlier, imo.
Mahanos
As a Chicagoan, I've officially stopped watching football. Wake me up in April...
susannahdeanofnewyork
Go Cubs! It's our year! Eventually that will be true.
dirtydiapers
What part of Chicago are you from? I'm moving to north Chicago from Houston this year.
MizKriss
Which part of north Chicago are you gonna live (or are looking to live?) One of my sisters lives just a couple miles north of Wrigley Field.
Mahanos
Ahh just near O'hare Airport in the suburbs. I only say Chicagoan because it's easier when talking about sports :p
dirtydiapers
That's cool bro. I like sports too...wanna be friends?
Mahanos
Sure man. Though I'm moving soon now that I'm graduating... Good luck with the cold up here!
MizKriss
Chicagoan includes the suburbs because it's easier to say that than ", which is right by Chicago" or "from Chicagoland."
stess
I'm a Browns fan... Don't even start.
YesImProductive
Seriously, why do that to yourself haha
sleepingprsn
I'm with ya man. Just say it with me: " there's always next year. .."
stess
They should put that motto on the Browns jersey's.
sleepingprsn
At least we're getting new managing and sending that coke riddled manchild to Houston.
stess
Yeah, he's a disaster. Glad he's not going to last. Although I'm sad we're going to pick up ANOTHER Qb.
Sakusami
I'm with you there... Maybe we can draft a good coaching staff next year...
stess
Well, Pettine is out. So there's that. We're off to a good start. I just hope we don't draft another QB.
JediWithin
I'm a Bills fan, you've been to the playoffs more recently than we have
stess
Hey, the Bills looked somewhat solid this year. I had hoped their defense was going to be something great.
JediWithin
It's exhausting when every year is "The year the bills finally breakout" lol
stess
I feel your pain. Although I hate them because I picked up their defense with prospects of them being amazing...
axelhoff
That must be rough as hell...what is with that team? Never got why they always end up in bad situations :s
stess
The Browns just have poor leadership. That's my thought at least.
axelhoff
Ye, lets hope the new head coach can sort out that QB problem u have had for a while
stess
Wouldn't that be nice. It won't happen... I hate to be negative, but this happens so often I don't expect much from them.
NowDoThatVoodooThatYouDo
Some teams (Browns being the best example) refuse to let coaches/GMs have time to develop their systems and teams which typically dooms them
SiameseCitys
Ouch. I'm always curious how-- like why'd you start? Why remain? Unless you're 60+ years old, when have they made you happy?
stess
When I started watching Football I was in a phase where I always rooted for the underdog. Well... 10 years later, Still rooting for them.
KingOfUserSubmitted
If the Bengals get Dalton back, we have a damn fine chance.
bhpott01
I couldn't agree more
ppeffinger
A lot depends if DeAngelo Williams is out too, their offense is no joke atm...
wutangbarrett
A J green baby
EightYearOldsDude
He's not going to be in vs. the Steelers. I don't know if I can handle a first round loss to Shitsburgh. I was praying for a chargers win.
crimemcgruff
I was praying for a jets win. I didn't want the Steelers in at all.
capthammerreynolds
That's the thing holding you back McCarron will be your starter in a year or two.
KingOfUserSubmitted
Daltons not going anywhere soon, also, our offensive coordinator hardly trusts McCarron throwing on third downs.
capthammerreynolds
I'm just saying he's really close to being lumped into a category with Tony Romo and Matt Ryan. I think McCarron is more clutch.
bhpott01
Dalton had the number one qbr going into to week he got hurt. So... no to that
KingOfUserSubmitted
Hahaha nahhhh.
capthammerreynolds
That defensive front a power running game Aj freaking Green all you need is a quarterback to power the system
KingOfUserSubmitted
Yeah, but he's not a franchise guy. Plus that's depending on whether or not we can keep everyone (defense and offense) together.
KingOfUserSubmitted
But I agree, because Joe Flacco has some rings.
MarkKnightRises
The same chance in the past playoff games? Prime time Dalton!
KingOfUserSubmitted
He's grown and he has a brilliant supporting cast. I'm very optimistic.
KingOfUserSubmitted
reliable target. We just need em to stay healthy.
Ballzout64
Dalton is consistently the most inconsistent QB in the NFL imo. He has gotten better though I'll give him that.
KingOfUserSubmitted
Have you watched him much this season? He's been playing very level headed lately, and I think Eifert has contributed to that. Good...
NowDoThatVoodooThatYouDo
I'm a huge Steelers fan but Dalton's a standup guy and great player. He tends to get unfair blame for what often is Marvin Harrison's fault.
MarkKnightRises
I'm just goofing. I like the guy, and I think he has a solid career ahead of him. That being said, Steelers all the way!
KingOfUserSubmitted
Ahh there it is! Haha, round 3 baby. I'm both excited and nervous as fuck.
MarkKnightRises
Yup, I'm loving the rivalry right now with these two teams. I am happy that we get another go at each other! To a great game, cheers!
