    Fantastic win

    it’s the playoffs. Survival is all that matters. Win however you have to win. Just ****ing win.

    Stroud- wake up bro. Vrabel is a beast of a coach. NE is very well coached, they will adjust to what we do. You gotta be better.

    He finished with a passer rating better than Mason Rudolph, and Mason Rudolph didn't throw a single incomplete pass in that game. So there's that.

    Here's what I really think. It wouldn't matter much either way. Neither Mills nor Stroud are the reason our team was even in this game tonight. There are plenty of quarterbacks who would have won today with the way our defense played, and has been playing all year. Neither Mills or Stroud are a rushing threat. I absolutely cheered when we drafted Stroud. He and Anderson both were my favorites to pick, and we got them both. After 3 years though I don't see a great quarterback. Sure, he might end up getting way better with time and with a much better OC and offensive line. just like a lot of quarterbacks. Trevor Lawrence took 5 years to finally start playing consistently good. I hope for the best, but just don't have a lot of confidence in him. I'd still love to draft a running QB 2nd round as a future backup or starter. And no, I don't think Mills is our future QB either. I just have more faith in him being less turnover prone right now. I still believe we can win the Superbowl though if he just plays decent.

    I think this defense was pretty pissed off about losing the scoring title.

    Hope the Patriots underestimate us all week long. The CJ hate will have their defense believing that the game is going to be easy. Drake Maye and the offense will feel like all they need to do is score 14 points to win. The Texans have the advantage by being favored to lose. I hope all of the national media don't take us seriously

    Probably shouldn't be running your mouth after that absolute clunker of a performance against the 26th ranked defense...

    After the score hit 10-6 you could see the dam start to break with Rodgers and the Steelers OL.

    They held up admirably, but once it became more than a game of field goals they crumbled.

    This defense is absolutely wild. They do not blitz. They just line up 4 and beat the absolute **** out of you.
