The Pittsburgher Thread - Deserve has nothing to do with it!

This Houston/Tennessee game is wild stuff. Great players on both sides.

I feel like the Browns are the best matchup in the 1st round for the Steelers. I was thoroughly underwhelmed with the Browns today, I'm pretty confident that the Steelers should beat them in the playoffs.

I'm skeptical that the Steelers can get past the Bills or Chiefs, but the Browns seem to be the best matchup for them.

 

[Khelandros]

not if they can get away with holding like they did today.

They said early in the broadcast that the officiating crew had the fewest holding calls among all the crews.

Browns’ Myles Garrett approaches Mason Rudolph after victory over Steelers, shakes his hand and says ‘good game’

Trying to think how I’d handle that if I was MR.

I’d like to think I’d extend my hand, but that’s a tough pill to swallow when someone ruins your reputation for life.

I'd tell Garrett to go f*** himself. Dude legitimately called Rudolph a racist.

If it were true and Mason really did call him a racial slur, I'd be happy the guy forgave me enough to say good game.

99% sure MG did something heinous, tried to cover his ass, and now feels guilty.

That’s my take, but whatever.

NM, I'm blind.

Agreed.

Everyone knows Myles is lying. Anyone that has had a racial slur thrown at them knows it's the first thing you tell the world. Myles waited an awful long time to suddenly say it was that. That's what liars do.

We don't live in our feeeeeeaaaarrrrrrsssss...

[Honour Over Glory]

Your take based on absolutely no proof whatsoever?

We are precisely in the day and age where if there was even a shred of truth to the whole "Mason called me the N word", he'd have been crucified already.

Not one person heard or saw anything that warranted Rudolph getting clocked over the bare head with a helmet.

But hey, he's white and apparently straight, soooooooo.....

Mate he's saying MG which is Garrett. He's agreeing with you.

Well, I'm an idiot, soooooo

Steelers Depot is saying the extra opponent for the Steelers next year as a result of the league adding a 17th game for each team is the Seahawks.

Rudolph’s reputation shouldn’t be ruined UNLESS we are to simply believe unwarranted accusations....well....because of WHO hurled them.

Literally EVERYBODY was in agreement that what Garrett did was off the charts reckless, dangerous and malicious as all hell the moment he did it, but then Garrett hurls his accusations and suddenly there is a segment that wants to justify his actions...

And when not a shred of evidence is found that his accusations were true, he never backs down from it or apologizes or anything...

Another example of living in an era when heinous, egregious behavior can be “justified” by claiming that the person or property being assaulted is a “racist, sexist, homophobe, Nazi, etc”...
