This is hilarious. Even for me. And the Bengals.
At least you didn’t start Boyd.

I came in up by 5 with the Steelers D and my opponent is done. I debated benching the D, as this league has large negative point potential. Thinking I should have benched the D.

Ryan Finley is proof that anyone of us could have played NFL QB in the right circumstances. At least for a play or two. Bless his heart, he's got no arm, but he's also slow. And makes bad decisions.

Sounds like a great fit for the Jets.

I could have! He's really slow! The steelers clearly didn't consider it coming.

In all honestly he’s made like one throw and taken at least 4 or 5 hits that are well beyond the capabilities of a normal human.

He doesn't know where he is! He can't throw the ball 15 yards!

He ran like a 4.75 40 time. He'd smoke 99% of NFL-aged people on Earth.

Now you know the pain of me needing a result from a team you care for. I am positive me needing 20 yards from JuJu led to this entire evening. It's how I roll.

I know professional athlete Ben Roethlisberger worked out for the first time in his life this past offseason but he's shot.

No reason this game shouldn’t have been a 42-3 Steeler win.
Not having a functional QB is a pretty good reason that it's not a 42 point anything.

SL - I was kidding. Mostly. But he's a terrible NFL QB. He really has no arm, and 4.75 from the QB spot is...not fast.

That result tonite was SO weird. But it was my nightmare come true in terms of fantasy. Cost me a minimum $375.

I think 4.75 at qb is remarkably fast outside of the outliers like Lamar and Kyler and maybe allen? Rich Eisen, middle aged like a lot of us, runs close to six, right?

In the swamp fantasy league I had a 10 point lead and JuJu going against Rush, who had the Steeler D tonight. Juju shit the bed, but so did the Steeler D, so I squeaked it out.

Yes, he's a top 25% athlete at the position.

And finishing 1.25 behind( which is stretch for most of us, gunpowder and shirley(assuming he can jump the last 20 feet) maybe xcluded ,over 40 yards is a huuuuuuuge gap.

The rec basketball league I played in had guys who were players at small colleges and they wrecked shop. Actual professional athletes are a different breed

The year before I got to Allegheny, they ran electronic timed 40s and the fastest kid on that team and a D-3 All-American type ran like a 4.8. They never ran them again.

I'm beyond the point of trying to understand whose interest is being served in banning players like Josh Gordon.
