https://sports.yahoo.com/shorthande...r-first-playoff-win-since-1994-043814733.html Yow! When I was watching the Steelers, they were 11-0. I got busy doing other things and, the next time I looked, they had lost four out of the next five! Now this! Just goes to show: No such thing as a sure thing......
It was a good game, and I was glad to see the Browns finally advance in the playoffs. I quit watching the pros 10 or more years ago, but I'm suffering from Covid-induced terminal boredom, so I did watch the entire game. Why is it that after every play, someone has to jump up and do their little tribal dance? And watching Brown's defense all run over to mug in front of the camera after an interception was another reminder of why I quit watching. Can you imagine Dick Butkus doing that? Tonight is the College Football National Championship game, and I'll be watching it and pulling for the Buckeyes.
Well, now no penalty flag is thrown for "celebration" and a camera screen is on a wall at field level. These "macho" dudes showing off their muscles can get rather old. Noticed the Raven players were dancing (stomping) all over the Titan logo on the field during part of that game. Big Ben sure looked depressed! Sat on the bench, at the end of the game, and wouldn't congratulate the Browns players at all. Think "Big Ben" was depressed, just think how Pittsburg fans felt............both depressed and angry.
The Steelers had no running game which is why they are out of the running. And that turnover leading to a TD in the first seconds of the game didn't help at all. Tough one for Big Ben. If he retires after this season it's a bad way to end a career.
My hometown guys, the Bears, lost to New Orleans, but I was expecting that. They really need to get a plan together for the draft so they can build a better team. Now, I'm looking forward to seeing Brady up against Brees, this coming week. Brees is 4-2 against Brady.
I had been following the Steelers for several years but then started watching Cleveland after they drafted one of my home team quarterbacks but guess i am surprised a little at the Steelers showing.
