I only cheer for the black and gold. I will watch every game, but my loyalty is to the Steelers.
There is no such thing as a second favorite team.

As much as I hate to say it, I can't bring myself to hate on this jags team, they remind me of the old blue collar Steelers teams. Taking it to the pats with their defense and ball control offense
Well the first half was fine until the Jags went full stupid and played prevent = TD for Pats
I want the Jags over the Patriots and the Vikings over the Eagles. I then want the Vikings to win it all.
It would be really cool to see history being made by the Vikings winning the Super Bowl in their own stadium as the "away" team.

Look at that, QB sneak for a first . . .
And JH with the strip sack, the guy with nothing left . . . I bet he could have set the edge last week better than Dupree . . .
He still played better than Dupree
That old dude that couldn't hang with the Steelers out produced all the Steelers OLB's except for Watt, in 4 games total.
Steelers coaches.....LOL
Bortles lit up that bottom ranked Patriots Defense.
Butler is King buffoon.
You guys are hilarious. JH made one play all day. I mean I do realize that one is better than none but still. He didn't play on running downs all day despite his legendary edge setting skills.
Also, the Pats were one AMAZING play by Gilmore (which not a single DB on the Steelers roster can currently seem to make) from losing this game.
And he was playing limited snaps to say fresh against a rookie tackle that got hurt earlier in the game and was obviously limited with his movement. If that was Dupree, he would have been mocked for making two plays on an injured player, but because it's Harrison.....it's epic. We won't even mention the fact that Harrison isn't asked to run all over the field covering TE's or anything remotely as athletic as he is in this scheme.
And for the record, Harrison did exactly what we all envisioned here. He played limited snaps to stay fresh and just rushed the passer at the end of a playoff game. Imagine that...... He just made sure he didn't do it with the Steelers. Yeah....he's a real hero.
Jags 20
Cheats 10
Refs 14
Fucking disgusting
Hater = Realist
Wow, just making my point, JH outplayed Dupree IN LIMITED SNAPS compared to full time snaps by Dupree. He literally made more plays in 1/100th the snaps that Dupree made. Make whatever excuses you want, the Coaches here are worse than terrible.
Ack!
More and more as the weeks go by Mike Tomlin and the Steelers look more and more like stooges.
How would you know? By your own admission you don't watch non-Steelers games and haven't for somewhere between 2 and 3 decades.
Your posts make a pretty clear argument that you have arrived at your judgement of Dupree through detailed watching of each of his snaps, consideration of the result of those snaps, and an evaluation of his effort and demeanor. All of that has combined to create an evaluation that Dupree is not a quality NFL player and is not likely to ever develop into one. So without watching current 2017-18 James Harrison with the same amount of snap by snap critical analysis - how did you arrive at your judgement?
I mean if all we are doing is reading box scores...
Additionally the linking between Dupree and JH is not really what is being argued anyway. Neither the Patriots or the Steelers had any intention of playing Harrison starter's minutes. Pats have used JH exactly how Steelers claimed they were going to use him in the playoffs as well. That has very little to do with Bud Dupree and everything to do with the fact that no one, including the Pats, wants a 39 year old LB logging big minutes.
Here are James Harrison's career stats. http://www.nfl.com/player/jamesharri...44/careerstats
It wasn't until he was in his 6th year of professional football before he had more than 3 sacks in a year. He had 4 total sacks in 60 games played in his first 5 years. Funny, I don't remember you commenting how great he was back then or projecting what a great player he would become. I guess we all missed your great eye for talent. I guess he was Jarvis Jones before Jarvis Jones......even though you said you never called him Jarvis Jones in another discussion we had.
Here are Bud Dupree's career stats: http://www.nfl.com/player/buddupree/2552289/careerstats
Dupree has 14.5 sacks in 38 games played in his career. He's a different player than Harrison, with a different body type and different gifts. He has accomplished far more at this stage of his career than Harrison did.....and it's not close.
Why don't you explain to us how great James Harrison was over the first 5 years of his career, and your vision of what a great player he would become.
Or he could compare him with other edge rushers drafted in the past 3 years to see if his development is on, ahead, or behind the curve of expectations based on similar players who have entered the NFL raw and undeveloped.
But wait...that would require watching and knowing about other teams/games...
He just wants to continue to make smart ass remarks when he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about in many instances. He generally just avoids answering anything directly, and makes comments about the poster getting upset with him and just not able to handle him. Or that whoever disagrees with him is obsessed with him. Oh yeah......he's a real master of his craft.
