Let me start by saying, this isn't directed at ALL Steelers fans, just the ignorant ones who can't type a post or have a conversation without mentioning 6 Super Bowl wins, and when I say "Steelers fans" I'm referring to these ignorant ones...
The Steelers don't have more championships than other other franchise. In fact, they're not even in the top 3. The current leaders are t

Prisco probably should have said that playoff races are usually a bunch of good teams chasing each other for a few coveted spots, usually while playing a decent level of football. The problem is that even the mediocre 6-4 clubs continually play up and down each week, there are only a few teams that play consistently well almost each week and the rest are basically struggling to put together any ki

This is a plea to Prisco to start grading teams OBJECTIVELY rather than based on expectations. Please explain to me how the Chiefs earn an A while the Steelers earn a D, when the game went into overtime? Just because a team that normally plays poorly manages to win a squeaker against a good team, they get an A? You gotta be kidding me. Did you watch the game??? The Chiefs were dominat

Prisco - I usually love your writing despite what everyone else on here has to say about it. However, your argument does not make mathematical sense. For example, you mentioned that the Bengals would have virtually locked up the AFC North if they had beat the Raiders. They would have a two game lead plus tie breaker with 6 games to go.
The problem with that thinking is that it assumes

I have huge respect for Pete Prisco. The amount of dis he suffers on this forum is way over the top. And unwarranted. Nevertheless , for once , I'm disappointed with him this week.
The Sunday night game was a classic. For most of the game New England was terrifyingly awesome. On both sides of the ball. Brady was exceptional. By contrast Indy was not inspiring and I thought Manning had t

I don't agree with what Prisco is saying. No playoff races in the coming weeks? Sure, there are a divisions with significant leads, but that doesn't mean the end of the season is set up for a number of big wild card races. Still, another other reason I don't agree is that a few weeks ago I remember either Prisco or Judge saying the exact same thing about there being no races, exc

Packers beat them 17-0, then the Redskins lose 7-6 ? The previous grade out was a "C" ? Right now, I give them an F for the Packers game, a D- for barely beating the Redskins and only a grade above failing because they won the game. I think even Dallas coaches would agree with me ? Jerry Jones would ?

How can you say that? Because you read the stats and saw the yardage that McNabb put up? Or did you actually watch the game?
The Chargers offense was scoring at will and the defense held Philly to a field goal on, what?... 3 redzone situations - one being 1st and goal at the 1 yard line. So the Chargers went to playing prevent D most of the game. T

Okay Brett Favre, be upset with the Packer organization; but you have some unfinsished business with the Packer fans. You need to apologize to them for what you put them through for 4 years. You said that you went to the church prayed before the game in Minnesota? Well, you'd better stay there all weekend in Green Bay, because there is no place else to hide from the people tha

I got to see 4 games this weekend, including the Bears Eagles, which was pretty good for the most part. Donovan McNabb did play pretty well, and the Bears defense gave up some big 3rd downs and a big score to DeSean Jackson. The Bears did not do well in the red zone with only 4 FGs...but it was exciting.
The Cowboys Redskins game was a joke, and I'm a Boys fan. The skins dominated

The Jets are a playoff team but if Sanchez is at the helm for one more week, we will not be. I said it from the beginning that Sanchez didn't prove anything in college, did not prove it in preseason and did not prove it in any of the wins, except maybe one. The defense carried the team through the wins and he single handedly lost 3 games for us. We held the Saints, THE FREAKIN SAINTS to 10 points,

"Steelers: They outplayed the Chiefs and lost, which will make this one sting. They have had trouble covering kicks all season. The interception was the big play, turning things around in a big way."
They got a D and the Chiefs got an A??? They got outplayed and got an A? Strange grades indeed.

Forgive me if I can't quite connect the dots, but I can't quite connect the dots. When I was in school, your GPA was an indicator of your overall body of work, not the by product of one particular test or class. So can someone please help me to understand any of the following:
1. The YTD (year-to-date) GPA for the Indianapolis Colts is 3.08 while the GPA for the Patr

Final score, SD 32 Den 3. How did the Broncos earn a D??? The defense played like crap, and the offense was terrible. Chris Simms is a joke, and Kyle Orton did nothing in relief. Knowshon Moreno had the fumble at the goal line. This was a game of 6-3 teams, winner takes first place. Denver didnt show up. Denver should be thanking Prisco for this grade...should have been an F, they did nothing, and

What is with the infatuation with the 4-5 NY Jets? They are in a down hill spiral that will continue for awhile and people are still making excuses as to why they SHOULD HAVE won their "last" game. They are a mid level team with a Rookie QB and they have a very tough schedule so they are not the next Super Bowl Champion by any stretch of the imagination. They will be go
