Superb? Not so sure. They've made excellent use of conditions set up totally in their favour. Had this series be 5 or 6 weeks earlier, we may have been in serious trouble but thankfully the Indians have once again shown they can't play the moving ball.
We haven't answered any of the questions...
Hopefully that's our 'play down to an inferior opponent on the road' game done early this year. BB started last year rusty and finished strong. I quite like that Fichtner and BB seemed to want to put a lot more of the offence in BB's hands and there was definitely an attempt to have him play...
Brilliant Browns stat here
"The Browns are +5 in takeaways today. Since the Browns returned to the NFL, teams with a turnover margin of +5 or better in a game are 132-4-1. The Browns are responsible for two of those losses and the tie."
Yet, when 21-7 up, rather than killing the Browns off (they just couldn't stop Pittsburgh in the third quarter) we went super-conservative and let them back into the game. The new OC Randy Fichtner had an absolute nightmare of a day.
The worst game of Big Ben's entire career (far worse than the 5INT effort in the regular season against Jacksonville last year.)
For all the talk about how Connor replaced Bell with ease (he did), against a Browns run defence that was fairly stout last year, if that fumble doesn't happen we...
New Sauna Youth record out today. I think the last one got some love round these parts or was it just me?

Robinson might see some England Lions action this winter but let's be honest, the general standard of batting in Div 2 this year has been woeful. That this Sussex side with top order troubles of its own is likely to have the most batting bonus points in the division after this round says it all...
The only positive from Le'Veon Bell's refusal to sign his franchise tender and report to training this week as a Steelers fan is that I saw it coming and picked up James Connor (who had a fantastic pre-season) in the NSC league.
I wouldn't go that far. He'd struggle to start for anyone bar the Bills. But he should have a job in the NFL for sure.
I just think the 'protest' is hilarious. Bloody snowflakes.
For those that can't wait for the start of the NFL season, college ball starts this weekend and unusually week one has some good looking matchups
Oklahoma vs Florida Atlantic Sat 17:00
Auburn vs Washington Sat 20:30
Notre Dame vs Michigan Sun 00:30
LSU vs Miami Mon 00:30...
If anyone is interested in playing NSC Fantasy NFL this year, it looks like we have a couple of spots in both our redraft and dynasty league. Draft is this Sunday at 4pm for the redraft league.

In the redraft league, I suppose there's room for a couple of extra teams if anyone wants in. It used to be a 16 team league and slimmed down last year if I remember right...
