Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown has been having a very impressive year since signing his contract extension this offseason, with 40 receptions for 480 yards and 1 touchdown.His explosiveness continued on Sunday against the Washington Redskins when he blew past everyone on a punt return and ended up running backwards into the end zone for the last 20 yards.Some people may find this to be a bit too cocky, but I find it to be nothing short of impressive that he was able to get that open that no one was able to catch him. It’s just too bad that the punt return was called back because of a penalty.GIF via: Cosby Sweaters

Roethlisberger reaping benefits of the “dink and dunk” Steelers offense
It’s funny how controversial this term, “dink and dunk” can be when it comes to football these days. It’s not that there is anything wrong with it, at least I don’t think so because the ultimate goal in professional sports is to win no matter what. If it’s short passing; fine, if it’s going deep … Continue reading »

Ben Roethlisberger Hits Ref in the Head With Pass (Video)
Big Ben Roethlisberger just plunking the referee in the head with a pass like it ain't no thing. Don't make a bad call against the Steelers or you know what you're up against.

P.S. Am I the...

The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Washington Redskins 27-12 Sunday at Heinz Field and below are my first half notes from the game with the second half notes to follow soon.
