A Jag’s player on Twitter responded that Mitchell will have all off season to play NE on Madden now. An awesome slam. Classic.

“Before even playing the Jags, Mitchell said "We can play [the Patriots] in hell, we can play them in Haiti, we can play them in New England ... we're gonna win."

“You can play them on @EAMaddenNFL all offseason. #DTWD “

Deadspin ran an article with all the trash talking the Jags are doing, and it's hilarious. I want the Browns to be that team. They have taken so many beatings from the Steelers over the years. We're just two free wins to that team, and it's been that way pretty much from the rebirth.

I also love that Pittsburgh isn't a scary/intimidating team any more. They have an aging QB who can still play, a ridiculously good RB and WR (I love watching Antonio Brown, all hatred of Pittsburgh aside) and that's it.

Their defense isn't scary any more. In fact, they really aren't even good. The mistique of the steelers, the uniforms, etc plays up to them being that team, but honestly, after what I saw Sunday, New England would have put 60 up on that team. I also think Mike Tomlin is overrated as a coach. He's been bailed out by Ben and Dick Lebeau for years, and now that Lebeau is gone, and Ben is beat up and old, you're seeing how good of a coach he really is.

I also love the particular group of Browns fans who think Tomlin is this legendary great coach. I absolutely miss hearing these dolts call in the Monday after another Browns loss with the whole "do you think Mike Tomlin would put up with this???" as if he's Bill Belichick, as if he could do any better than any of the schlubs we have sent out there to coach the Browns. Gimme a break.

I was so disinterested in the playoffs until last Sunday. Seeing the Steelers lose, especially to a team that they clearly didn't respect was awesome. And seeing the Vikings and their fan base go through all those ups and downs was great to see. I'm officially pulling or them. I visited Minneapolis over the summer and had a blast. Great town, great people. They deserve a winner.

The Steelers losing Shazier to injury really hurt their defense a lot.

As far as Tomlin, I don't think that he's a great coach. He makes too many really dumb decisions to be a great coach.

Yeah, I'm not saying he's a bad coach. I just think he's overrated. Regardless of good ownership, coaches, and players around him, he still won a super bowl, and had one of his teams play in another.

It's just annoying to hear from people that think he's some once in a lifetime type guy, and I hear it from Browns fans more than anyone else.

I don't think he's a great coach. I think he made a ton of bad decisions in that last game. But, I don't think the dumb ass fans should be talking about firing him.

Shazier needs to learn how to tackle.
