Well there you go. Steelers beat Cleveland 31-0 with fast Willie gaining 110+ yards and I am still completely unimpressed. Looking like a Colts-Steelers rematch in a couple weeks (providing things go that way of course). I can't see how the home teams will be favored in the AFC divisional games next week, as Baltimore and Indy should be favored to win.

I think that the Dallas Cowboys have a good shot, if Romo can heal his pinkie quickly. What do y'all think?

im still holding out for my Boy's they have the team to do it. Now only if they can pull their heads outa their ass

America's Team!

Dallas Cowboys all the way!!!

NOPE

I'm sure Jerry Jones if fit to be tied. I couldn't be happier. I am very happy about my Titans dominant win over the Steelers last week. But we really sucked it playing our second string against the Colts second string. I'll be glad to get VandenBosch and Haynesworth back. Plus today proved to me just how lucky we were to have Vince Young go out of the starting rotation in the first game. To the Steelers fans (and I was one as a little kid during the 70s and 80s), what's up with Big Ben getting hurt all the time? For real, it seems that almost every game you see him lying on the turf well after the play is over for 2 or 3 plays a game. Is that just his style? I remember stories about Jim Brown getting up slow from the pile, acting a little hurt, then plowing over the defense on the next play. I realize he got popped on the head this week. But of course he'll be ready in two weeks. I have to agree with Iacas that he seems to hold on to the ball too long.

Occasionally, he gets hit, breaks a nail and has to go to the hospital. There's been lots of times that it looks like he's really milking an injury but he usually comes back firing on all cylinders. For that reason, I was a little happy he went down.

It doesn't hurt to have a starter as a back up either.... Him holding onto the ball too long is a double edged sword. I don't complain about it because it's the reason he makes most of the great plays that he does.

I WISH we had a backup the caliber of Leftwich. If Collins gets hurt in the playoffs I'd rather go to Chris Simms. Young still has that dear in the headlights look.

And it's true that Roethlisberger holding onto the ball makes for some great plays. You just can't cover receivers for 10 seconds. Eventually someone will sit down in an open spot or just improvise a route. So I guess it is a two edge sword.

i'm going to say baltimore will. the offset o-line is hard to figure out, because there are so many options. and some of the tricky plays (like flacco and the o-linemen diving like the ball was fumbled, and then throwing the ball to a wideout in the flat) could surprise some defences

Lets go C-H-A-R-G-E-R-S-!!!!!!!!!!!!

vs. the eagles

would be fun to see the two teams that barely got in with the worst records battle it out

They will beat their swords into golf clubs and their spears into putters. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Old Tom Morris 2:4

I'm still in shock and awe that the Eagles got in. That's about as lucky as a team can get, but hey, what do I care?

Arizona's the "worst" record, then, by virtue of the tie of course.

yup the cardinals are a few percentage points better, hopefully the cardinals and the eagles can battle it out for the nfc championship to play the .500 chargers

    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
    • Right. The difference between being 120 out and 70 out for me (this is the important part) is negligible and not worth putting other risks into play off the tee.   Ok the argument against driver is that my shot cone is comically large. It puts every possible outcome into play. You can't see the green from the tee so there's a good chance I'd have to wait for it to clear which would slow down play. That's the third tee right in the middle of the firing range there. I really don't want to wait just to hit a terrible shot and I especially don't want to injure somebody. Yea I have no problem playing out of the rough short of the bunker if I'm just going to lay up short of the bunker, but I absolutely need to avoid flaring it right into the penalty area if I'm going to be laying up in the first place. As a general strategy I understand where you're coming from. But since we're specifically talking about me (this is a shot I'm going to have to hit on Saturday), I think the cost is fairly marginal. I hit the ball 8' closer on average from 50-100 than I do from 100-150 from the fairway and rough and the green success % difference is 4%. Bunker might as well be a penalty drop. Based on the data,  Here's my SG:A data compared to a 10: I honestly don't know how to use SG for decision making. That's why I was mostly looking at proximity to hole and green success rate for comparison. I mostly use SG as a way to track my progress. All good. Like I said, I appreciate the discussion. It makes me think. If I didn't want to see alternative/opposing viewpoints to my own I just wouldn't post anything. You should post it! In your own swing thread, of course. It's been a fun exercise.
    • Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.
    • day 34. Technique practice. Became too quick and outcome oriented. need to slow down and work on technique again. 
    • Day 534, April 18, 2024 Practice before lessons today. Priority piece. No sim this time. 🙂
