Ben Roethlisberger is tough as hell but often exaggerates the severity of his injuries

It's a lot of injuries Seven [Roethlisberger] shouldn't have played. But he's just a tough... That's what makes Seven seven... And there's probably a lot of other injuries that... Seven, man, come on, man, stop all that BS... So you're going to have the boot on on Monday, but Tuesday you're going to be all good.

Internal locker room dynamic that matches the public perception of Ben Roethlisberger's injury history.

The Seahawks will beat the 49ers on Sunday Night Football

I feel like I don't have faith in either of those teams. But that just feels like a Seahawks win. You close your eyes and you just see it's probably drizzling... It's loud as fuck.

The 49ers won 26-21, famously stopping the Seahawks at the goal line.

The Titans can beat the Chiefs again if they meet in the playoffs

We could end up with Kansas City playing against Tennessee in the first round of the playoffs, and I think that Tennessee could beat Kansas City again. I think that could happen.

The Titans did reach the AFC Championship to play the Chiefs, but they lost 35-24.

The Steelers locker room culture fell apart because Le'Veon Bell left

The locker room wasn't the locker room until Le'Veon left. Like, Le'Veon is the mediator of everything. He's somebody you want to have in that locker room.

Insiders have confirmed the friction that followed Bell's holdout and departure.

No other quarterback could survive in Pittsburgh like Big Ben

There's no other quarterback in the league can play in Pittsburgh the way [Roethlisberger] have played... he's just a tough son of a gun.

A subjective evaluation of a player's fit and durability in a specific market.

Demaryius Thomas beat the Steelers in the 2011 playoffs, not Tim Tebow

It wasn't Tebow. It was DT... DT gave me a mean ass stiff arm... Everybody was like, Tebow Mania. I mean, it was. But that was DT, man.

While Tebow threw the pass, Demaryius Thomas did the majority of the work on the 80-yard play. This is a matter of interpretation.
