The NFL weekend kicks off Thursday with Steelers at Browns, and ends with Ravens at Chargers on MNF. There are plenty of college and NFL games in between. What do you expect from your favorite team(s) or player(s)? What about those teams you love to hate? This thread is here for all your football talk.

    It was fun watching the Thursday night game played in the snow. That is how I like my snow - on TV and not near me.

    Brian, your Browns pulled off the upset. Good game.

    I didn’t watch the game - past my bedtime, doncha know - but it sounds like an interesting game with enough miscues to put it up for grabs. I was unimpressed with George Picken’s comments blaming the loss on conditions and away game refs. Unless I’m mistaken, the Browns played in the same stadium and conditions last night. If they’re not a good team, why did they have the lead for a good part of the game? And I’m not thinking the refs are all based in Cleveland.

    Yes! It was a very entertaining Thursday game in all regards. Go Browns!

    Look for the video clips of Pickens fighting the Browns defender Greg Newsome while the Hail Mary pass was still in the air. He's ... just not what we'd call a mature individual. There has been something off about the Steelers' WR room for quite a while now. Players come and go, but as a group they constantly seem to be a few sandwiches short of a picnic.

    The Cowboys' game was tied 3-3 at halftime. The final score was 34-26 after the teams combined to score 31 points in the final four minutes. Washington missed two extra points. The Cowboys had two kicks blocked, but they returned two kickoffs for touchdowns. Crazy game, but a win is a win.
