CONFIRMED - Ravens to rest majority of starters Week 17

Post by Orangesteel » Mon Dec 23, 2019 9:14 pm

Well, this should be interesting. No Mason; riding with Duck and Paxton against the Week 4 of Preseason Starters for the Ravens.

Steelers have a chance. Which team will Mikey T. field? The overachieving bunch we saw in October-November or the fucking asshats we’ve seen in December?

Gonna be an interesting Sunday afternoon!

psshhh, at this point, if the Ravens put their cheerleaders out there, I'd be about 50% confident we *could* win...

We couldn't beat a Ryan Mallett led Ravens team a few years ago...

If Tomlin can’t beat the Baltimore 3rd stringers in a must win game for a potential playoff spot, is he canned?

but, even without some key starters, the ravens will be in full force. Do you believe harbaugh will sit for 2 weeks waiting for their playoff game, they will have a plan and try to win the game, sitting the starters doesnt mean that they will give the W to the steelers, also some of the backups will be playing to have more playing time or next ontract next season

Winning yesterday would have been HUGE.

What a fucking failure.

We would still need to win on Sunday.

Right, but less dependent on what we can’t control.

Our D should be able to shut down their O. But will we be able to score?

Tomlin's offense is a bunch of 3rd stringers.

Coming off back to back 10 points of offensive output, I see us being due for a breakout of 13 points

CONFIRMED - We’ll be caught off guard by whomever they put on the field. We’ll spot them a quick 10 points as a side effect of attrition football. And we’ll be scrambling for our playoff lives in the second half.

So, Steelers 24

NHALS secured. Check.
In the playoffs. Check
AFCN Champions. Check
Beat the Texans. In progress

I’m hoping like hell he “coach of the year” him selves to Washington for a first rounder or two.

Then we all need to hope Dunce doesn’t hire a bigger idiot.

There's a better chance Fichtner gets canned before Tomlin is even considered for hot seat candidate. Watch and see.

I don't think either will be fired regardless.
