Not looking too promising for Ivory tonight. Ivory getting only the obvious running plays and getting bottled up.

Since when does Powell play entire drives?

Gotta hope with how awful Cassel is, Ivory gets to salt the game away second half.

Not really his fault that the O-line is letting guys get through untouched to hit him right after he takes the handoff.

Gotcha. I was thinking you were referring to Steelers playoff chances in which case this game is irrelevant (I think)

Not a lack of trying on the coaching staff, Jets run game is crap tonight, Ivory is doing his part to make it look like crap.

This is quite literally how every game has played out over the past month from a utilization perspective.

I had this guy benched for Hightower but started him 45 minutes before kickoff thanks to all you clowns pimping him up.

Feeling good so far about leaving him on my bench for Robinson. Powell and Ridley and have been more involved every week. Ivory has just one TD in his last 6 games.

Ha, same positions, except for D. Robinson. I'm an idiot.I had this gut benched for Hightower but started him 45 minutes before kickoff thanks to all you clowns pimping him up.
The only bright side for me is that Marshall is only a point ahead of Ivory in my matchup. I am lucking out based on matchup but man this is depressing. Took gio out 5 minutes before game. Had my wife and kids pick between Ivory and Powell and they chose Ivory. Obviously they are conspiring with my opponent. Can't trust anyone.

You're taking input on your playoff lineup from your wife and kids and you are going to ##### about it?

Happens every year. Someone who was great all year lays an egg in weeks 15 or 16. Bummer that it was Ivory.

how would this game be irrelevant when they are tied and likely only one of them gets in?

Because of tiebreakers. Even if the Jets had lost to Dallas, the Steelers still need to win out to make it in. If they had the same record and the Jets only loss was to the Cowboys, the Jets would win the tiebreaker over the Steelers. If they have the same record and the Jets only loss is to the Bills or Pats (and the a Steelers only loss is not to Cleveland), the Steelers win tiebreaker. Thus, a Jets loss last night is not really that meaningful to the Steelers.

Ugh that was brutal. I benched Hill for him and this could be the end for me this year as well.

That's counting on the Jets beating the Pats though which would be an upset??
If Pitt wins 2 or 3 (likely), and Jets beat the Bills but lose to the Pats (likely), then NYJ's last nights loss to Dallas is what gets Pitt into the playoffs.

It's really not any better in the grand scheme of things. I can't tell if I trolled Connskins with my exaggerated family story or if he trolled me with his response. Either way I had already decided to start Ivory without the family poll which was just for fun. And I really don't think they conspired against me. It's too close to Christmas and they wouldn't jeopardize losing their gifts from me.(tongue in cheek Conn)
Regardless, I still think Ivory was the safer move last night and could have ended up with 12 points or so if a couple of things went slightly differently. Can't beat yourself up for starting him.

Well yeah but my point was that even if the Jets lost to the Cowboys, they still would have to lose to the Pats or Bills for the Steelers to make it without winning out. Thus, either way the Steekers either win out or they lose one and hope Jets lose to one of the AFC teams. While the loss to the Cowboys would have been funny, it makes no difference to the Steelers.Deamon said:
