Wonder how many rushes Zimir White will get for the Raiders before they turn to Laube? Right now he is 4 for 1 yard. The best play, right??

Bosa 2 sacks!
Would so much like to see him stay healthy and kick ass like he used to and the way his "little" brother does.

Me too. They've only credited him with 1 sack so far. I thought he tripped up Minshew escaping the pocket earlier. IDK. Morgan Fox has a .5 sack.

Not necessarily traveling fans. When I lived in SoCal we would go to games every year at Jack Murphy Stadium (old Qualcomm) in San Diego and Chiefs fans would dominate. Most were from L.A.-San Diego, very few from Kansas or Missouri. I'll bet the numbers of Steeler fans in most metro areas (like Chiefs, Cowboys, whatever) are significant enough. Especially when the local team is somewhat uninspiring.

Boswell gets the game ball in this one for sure. Nice punt too.
No question that a lot don't travel, but some do. It's a mixture of both, but that's true of all NFL teams and their DWFs to varying degrees. I don't think a lot of Steelers DWFs would travel to "beautiful" Atlanta but some DWFs live their lives this way. And I would imagine tickets to Falcons home games are easier to obtain than most.

Yep! One of the first Panther games I ever went to, they were playing Dallas. Half the stadium were Cowboy fans, including me. Growing up here in NC there was no NFL team, so you had to pick. They showed the Redskins every Sunday here on local Tv in the 70's-80's. My brother picked them, so I went in a different direction and chose the Cowboys. Still to this day there are thousands of Dallas/Washington fans in NC/SC.
Jayden Daniels predictably mimicking Caleb Williams and just about all other black QBs today. Just 46 passing yards at halftime but 58 rushing. Not even decent for fantasy owners lol. 200 yards passing during the course of a game still remains a difficult marker for black QBs to reach after all these years of force-feeding them into the league.

DuhShaun is 7/15 for 36 yards. Generational talent for sure.
Watson with 36 passing yards at halftime, lots of boos from the DWFs who expect much more from their all black team.
