Monday NFL recap - week 3

Steelers - I watched the game with my buddy whose brother is an Eagles fan. He left to walk the dog in the beginning of the fourth quarter. It was that bad.

• Ben Roethlisberger after the game, "We stunk. We all stunk." You think?
• Markus Wheaton returned and looked just like I would look had I missed two weeks of football. He couldn't hold on to catches, dropping them left and right, the first coming in the end zone on the opening drive that just might have turned the game into a totally different ballgame.
• One by one the Steelers defense left the game. Robert Golden, hamstring injury. Ramon Foster, chest injury. Jarvis Jones, ankle injury. Ryan Shazier, knee injury. Artie Burns, ankle injury. Lawrence Timmons, shin injury that sent him to the hospital. The team kept sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson busy running around updating us with the injuries.
• And not to be outdone, the offense sent a few guys to the sideline. Eli Rogers, toe injury. Mike Mitchell, knee injury.
• Seven penalties. Missed tackles. Blocked field goal. Dropped passes. Poor throws. No sacks. Ugh. You aren't going to win with that line up.
• DeAngelo Williams was stuffed from the beginning, and except for a ??? yard run, he wasn't ever in the game.
• Antonio Brown again with the blue shoes. Someone must have knocked some sense into him in the locker room at halftime, however, because they were absent in the second half. Hey, maybe if he worried more about the game and less about breaking rules and taking videos on social media his concentration would increase.
• The Steelers haven't won in Philadelphia since 1965. Well, no wonder...
• Arnold Palmer has always been a Steelers fan. I just watched Antonio Brown's SnapChat of his visit with the golfing legend a couple of weeks ago. I hope that game didn't have anything to do with his death, but...
• Only good thing is that next week Le'Veon Bell returns. As long as he stays away from the illegal substances.

Other:

• This is the year of the rookies, but the Eagles Carson Wentz is truly the real deal. He kept a level head, made a lot of good decisions in his game against the Steelers, and still has not thrown an interception in his first 100 pass attempts. Impressive.
• Giants Odell Beckham Jr. after an Eli Manning interception in the end zone starting beating up a net on the sideline in frustration. The net didn't take kindly to its beating, turned on him, and knocked him in the head. If only more inanimate objects could knock sense into these guys.
• I traded Darren Sproles last night in Fantasy. WWWWWHHHHHHYYYYYY?
• Seahawks QB Russell Wilson beast! He went down with a horrific twisting of the leg, missed the next snap, and was back on the field to finish out the drive. 
• Wow! Nothing stops the Minnesota Vikings and the New England Patriots. Lost quarterbacks? No problem. Lost running backs? No problem. Lost back-up quarterback? Yeah, no problem. Kudos to both teams for chuggin' onward against the odds.
• The Bucs game was called at the two minute warning at the end of the game for lightning. The delay lasted an hour and ten minutes, and apparently the Bucs did no prepping in the locker room. Mismanagement of the clock and a lost quarterback who stumbled around in the end gave the game to the Rams 37-32. 
• I sucked in my picks this week. Pretty much my entire Sunday sucked in regards to football.
