2014 NFL Week 2 Open Thread

Good lord, Pittsburgh sucks. If the Brownies hadn't sleep walked through the entire 1st half, they probably would have won.

Edit. That's a bullshit flag. The only thing that stops receivers from going over the middle with impunity is the hard hit. I'm not a Steelers fan, but Palamaolu hits him in the shoulder. Flag for defenseless receiver. You are literally meant to let the WR catch the ball and take a step, apparently?! This game is being destroyed bit by bit.

Flag #1 Troy didnt lower his head. He led with his shoulder into the receiver's chest and his head to the side. They were just both standing up.

Flag #2 Mitchell led with a shoulder-on-shoulder action.

These flags need to be reviewable.

Stillers are in for a long year. And looking at the makeup of their roster, there could be a significant rebuild coming up. Wonder if Omar Epps survives a 6-10 or 5-11 type season, because they really could be looking at that.
