James Conner is the obvious choice
And in general, the steelers did what they was supposed to do after the first quarter except for the WTF moment on the ST in the 3rd quarter which gave a free TD to the Browns
I would not be surprised if Todd Haley is fired tonight or tomorrow .... 10 offensive yards in the second half before the last drive!

James Connor was awesome today.
The pass rush was relentless. They hit Mayfield all game long. The defense played well today.
Bud Dupree had a very good game today with a lot of pressures, a sack, and a forced holding penalty in the end zone for a safety. He gets killed when he doesn't do much. He deserves praise when he plays well.
James Conner first steeler in history to rush for 2 TDs in a game 3 straight weeks in which they also had 100+ yards rushing
Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles didn't value him either , now he is a Stain at the Mistake by the Lake 3 teams in 4 years more of a shooting star than a superstar
Didn’t see it.
But Conner’s stats were awesome.
Glad to hear that Bud looked good.

Conner for sure, Ben and the Oline as well. Def played well, finally have a pass rush today and an INT by Haden. Honestly, the Browns wouldn’t have scored on that ST mess up if the refs wouldn’t have given them so many chances from the 1.

Damn, was hoping for a Bungles loss today
Game Balls: Conner, AB, and defense
Goat: Switzer, single-handedly kept Cleveland in the game into the 4th

I don't think you can completely kill Switzer for that play. Nix is the guy that called for a fair catch and then moved away from the ball. Who knows what teammates were yelling to him.
Conner for sure, with an honorable mention to Keith Butler. Way to keep the hammer down! ST gets the goat for not knowing what "free kick" means.

Can the Justin Hunter experiment be over with? Laughable that they sat Washington for JH.
Cut him already and activate Ola to get him on the practice field.
Maybe nix saw that he wouldn't be able to get it and thought Switzer would get it since switzer was in better position
Wasn’t Switzer. Nix threw the fair catch sign up and then let it go. Then no Steelers player went for the ball or went to touch the recovery down. Cleveland should have scored a TD there.
The Goat goes to DANNY SMITH. Once again...his special teams are a disaster and unprepared.
Game Balls: Ben, Brown, Conner on Offense. Defense: Haden, Watt, Heyward and Dupree.

The O-Line and Feiler should get game balls as well.
I threw up...
Never let Munchak go.
Nope. I’d offer him a lifetime contract. No joke.

LOL - I guess Smith just assumes his players can learn the rules on their own time
But how you can play football since at least high school and not know the rules if you are fielding free kicks is astonishing.
Tomlin said Tuesday that Burns' play time would be decided in the way that Burns would be good or not in the practice week .....The fact that he did not have a snap today means he was not very good in practice this week!
^ Valid point.I always knew you were an Artie Burns fan.
I don't know if anybody else noticed, but this is the first time this year our secondary didn't get victimized like the new kid at sodomy camp. Our LBs blitzed constantly and left the DBs exposed. And most of the time, Haden was *not* detailed to the deep threat.
We basically dared them to test Sensabaugh and he acquitted himself well.
Not saying he's pro- bowl caliber or anything crazy like that, but I have no complaints about how he performed today.
Best,

P.S. Some love to "Thor" McDonald. Dude was clutch today.

I bet Switzer never makes this mistake again. Harsh lessons make for long memories.
What I found even more astonishing is how many of the announcers got it wrong as well. Tunch Ilkin didn't get it. Lefty Leftwich didn't get it. Chris Collinsworth didn't get it.
A Safety is a "free kick", not a kickoff. Either team can recover it, but the kicking team cannot advance it after recovery. The Browns ST understood that, but nobody else seemed to.
