**Monday Night Football - Giants at Steelers** (-6, 36.5) 8:15 (1 Viewer)

Need Pat Friiermuth to - eh, forget it, I can't even spell this guy's last name. I deserve to be in 12th.
 
Just here to see if the guys in the "who should the Steelers start Fields or Wilson" still think that starting Wilson is the Steelers version of tanking.
 
Well The Giants have scored touchdowns on the road this year,just not at home.
So there's that.
Tomlin>Daboll
So there's that.
Nice of The NFL to give us the scariest game to wrap up pre Halloween Week
The Steelers defense against The Giants offense.
That's like Freddie versus Jason but Freddie sends his grandma in his place.
If The Giants can get their touchdown early it won't get scary until the second quarter
But if they don't this one gets scary,ugly,gory early.
So...

One Of The Scariest Coaches Of His Generation to face- 33
A Soon To Be Dearly Departed Coach- 13

Since it's Halloween, I'd equate the Giants offense to the Invisible Man, you know they're there, you just can't see them doing anything.
 
i thought i was cruising to a win, but then chicago d gifted daniels a nice long TD that also put him over 300 yds passing for the bonus. so hoping Najee doesn't play, or loses a few fumbles, or something.
 
In some respects, these teams are mirror images. Questionable QB situations, 1 big time WR, struggling OL, great pass rush, iffy secondary. The biggest difference is Tomlin>Daboll, and I say that as someone who thinks Daboll isn't bad.

I'll say Steelers win 20-17. I think Russ looks a bit worse than he did last week (which was more Pickens making plays than Russ in my opinion anyway) but does enough to win. I think this could be a sneaky Najee Harris week, as far as the high scorer.

I will add that often this is the type of game the Steelers play down to, so an upset wouldn't blow my mind or anything. If the Giants do win, I think it'll be someone other than Nabers having to do a lot. Not to say he'll do nothing, but I'd bet on him seeing a lot of bracket coverage.

I don't recall anyone saying it was tanking to start Russ, that'd be a wild take if someone did. However, I still think Fields>Russ overall, even if Russ provided a little boost last week. Russ is better for Pickens for sure, time will tell if he's better for the entire team. Last week looks a lot less impressive given the Jets couldn't stop Jacoby Brissett when they needed to this week.
 
Russ looked legit good last week. So I'm not sure why the Steelers QB situation is questionable unless Russ regresses this week.
 
I know everyone watches it on ESPN/ESPN 2 but it is also on ABC tonight
I remember the 70s and 80s on ABC, seemed like a special event when I could watch it

Go back and read it. MOP definitely went there.
 
Unbelievable. Beautiful first drive wasted by Mr. bust Broderick Jones. Man he sucks so bad but with all the injuries on the O line, the Steelers have to play him.
 
Why couldn't that have been Nabers I was dreaming it was him while the ball was in air before I knew it was Slayton
 
I've seen OLs build a wall around a QB, but that was interesting on the long pass to Slayton. Was it just an RPO into the blitz?
 
I must have missed the memo is Tracy the new starter over Singletary ?

I have zero Singletary in 65 managed leagues was not feeling him this year but got me some Tracy.
