You're making my point... Ripken's record will never be broken. And it's a point of view that your 9 vs 8 fact has any relevance.

What a mess in Steeler Land... AB is traded for a 3rd and 5th round picks and must pick absorb the cap hit too. Bell is leaving with nothing in return. The team is re-tooling with an aging QB. The only good from this is that you get rid of 2 divas who wanted a lot more than what the Steelers were willing to give. Great article from ESPN on the financial issues behind AB.

It could be some lean years for us. Kinda like all the lean years the Bolts fans are used to.

Hey Scout, those were bad years, but not now... Did you go to the game last year when the Bolts beat the Steelers at home? The Bolts are on the up now with a good coach and solid team, but a terrible owner.

Not really. Rivers had his best season last year and tied the Chiefs in the West. The defense is playing really good. Looking forward to the draft.. Your Steelers are definitely on the downside. To be joined by the Patriots once Brady retires.

Hey Scout, the Browns are stacking their roster with strong players on both sides of the ball. Looks like they won't be in the cellar much longer. Better watch out as they could win the North.

I'm not worried about the Browns.

As Ben goes, so does the season... Paying a #1 for Minkah Fitzpatrick is a lot given that the pick will be a top 10 in 2020.

Mason looked good. I like the trade they made. Fitzpatrick was a #1 pick in 2018. Depending on where the Steelers finish, the pick they gave up could be in the bottom 10 of 2020.

Now that was a good win. We needed that one. Time to keep the momentum going!

Our season could be over but I'm not tossing in the towel.

Scout, your team has as many injuries as the Chargers. Still I think the Bolts will beat the Steelers Sunday night.

dakine,
You are going against a QB who was a rookie free agent and cut then added to the practice squad. But our defense could be the difference.
