When I’m at my lowest, I’m not going to hide. I’m sorry. That loss was on me. I let everyone down, it won’t happen again. pic.twitter.com/amLOGJxino

"I liked what Mike Tomlin did. I liked the message he was trying to send to his team: 'We are playing to win. We are going for broke in a place that almost nobody ever wins.'" — @RealSkipBayless on Steelers' fake punt pic.twitter.com/PFdLgMJ1lm

UPDATE (10:55 AM)-

If I were Art II, I would drill down deep this off-season to figure out how my team went from 7-2-1 to 8-6-1. B/c it was a cataclysmic collapse. You can't solve problems until you realize you have them.

Last year, the Jesse James play changed catch rule. That call on Joe Haden might be bad enough to make some PI calls reviewable.

If they lose in Week 17, the Bengals will have double-digit losses for the first time since 2010. Which begs the question (again). What about Marvin Lewis? https://t.co/rOZ17pcfqo pic.twitter.com/S8Gellg99h

This is dumb. They call DPI for a touch or grab, but this is a no call? Guess we just love touchdowns pic.twitter.com/dp6TD3ijXi
