Conner is 5th in rushing yards and 2nd in rushing TDs.

Yup if I'm Pittsburgh, I let Bell come back as his caddy and minimize his touches to reduce the salary he had coming.

Yeah, I think the Steelers should put Bell on the trade block and take the best offer they can get. Conner isn't as good as Bell but he's definitely adequate and getting rid of Bell would save the Steelers $10 million in cap space. I don't know how valuable Bell is since the acquiring team can't sign him to an extension and realistically wouldn't be able to franchise him after the season, but I could see a team like the Eagles giving up a decent package.

I’m guessing they are just waiting for the best trade(draft picks) offer. Conner is more than sufficient and Pitt has glaring needs all over the defense.
Dan Snyder on Line 1.

Scoring is on a record pace
Ratings are UP

Comp comm is like

Bucs fired DC Mike Smith.

LBs coach Mark Duffner is expected to take Smith's place. Smith is the first scapegoat for the collapsing Dirk Koetter regime, though a richly-deserving one. Running antiquated, vanilla schemes, Smith's defense was getting gutted for 440 yards per game, a number that would be by far the worst in the league if not for the Chiefs. They are on pace to allow the most points in NFL history. Smith's unit wasn't good (as in, dead last in yards allowed) in 2017, either, and it's fair to question why he was brought back in the first place. The game has passed Smith by.

Exactly. They don't need Bell.

Melvin Gordon is 2nd in Rushing TD, I believe Conner is 3rd

Gordon is 2nd in total TDs with 9 but Conner is 2nd in rushing TDs with 7 vs. 6 for Gordon.

Nah, it's an Andy Reid team. Fast starts, good offense, a good regular season record then poor showings and bad coaching/decision making come playoffs are his thing

This sucks. He had him dead to rights and could have changed the course of the game/outcome, but the way they call NFL games lately, he was afraid he'd get called for roughing the passer.

GOOD, classless move by the scumbag Pats fans that did this and it's all on video, the geniuses:

@AdamSchefter

Tyreek Hill and Drew Rosenhaus want to take action against fan that doused the Chiefs WR with beer Sunday. They are talking to the NFL/NFLPA about options. “That type of behavior is unacceptable,” Rosenhaus said. “Players have to be protected. We want that fan to be prosecuted.”

Not to mention, a waste of beer.

My guess? Moron will be fined a ridiculously large amount to discourage this behaviour and then banned from attending any future NFL games. Crap like this is, again, why I prefer to watch the games from home.

Couldn't agree more, bro. I'd rather not be around the riff raff and the home experience is so much more fun (and cheaper) anyway.

On a related topic, we go to the comedy club all the time. We go to the 8PM show this past Saturday night and a table full of older adults who paid $30 a ticket were all hammered, belligerent, stepping on jokes, heckling the comedians and in general being annoying and unruly towards the rest of the people that paid good money to be there. Same type of sh*t.

Wonder if the fan will get more jail time than Hill did when he beat and strangled his pregnant girlfriend, which got him probation.

I remember that was a concern about him going into the draft.

Beers in your face, middle fingers and domestic assaults. Welcome to the big leagues.

Fan who threw beer at Tyreek Hill has been charged w/ disorderly conduct & throwing object at sporting event. Foxborough PD ID'd him using surveillance video. He's 21 year old male from Massachusetts.
