Coach Talk

Ethan's Expert Team
Listen, Ethan's Expert Team, we applaud you on the confidence. Playing a starter with negative points (the Philadelphia Eagles defense) while still getting the W... that's borderline arrogant. All we ask is to please limit those shenanigans to the regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we're toast.
Let's go
Ben Roethlisberger tossed three interceptions and only two touchdowns? It may be that grateful time of year, but we're having a lot of trouble giving thanks for that sort of display.
