What happened to those 'Tebow to the Jaguars' rumors??
The Pittsburgh Steelers will fly to New Jersey only hours before playing the Giants on Sunday because of a travel disruption caused by Hurricane Sandy.
The Steelers' hotel in Jersey City still doesn't have power since the superstorm hit the East Coast, and the team can't find another hotel to accommodate the organization in the area.
The Steelers now will fly into Newark, N.J., on Sunday morning, have a pregame meal at a hotel near the airport and bus to the stadium, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Kickoff against the defending Super Bowl champions is 4:25 p.m.
The Steelers will charter home later Sunday night.
NFL teams are required to travel the day before a game, but the league allowed the Steelers to alter their plans.
The Chiefs and Chargers are making my eyes bleed.
Looks like the Steelers will have a built-in excuse if they happen to lose this Sunday:

seriously though haven't these Thursday games sucked? I love another night of football but the matchups have been meh...
Actually, what has sucked is how sometimes on Sunday, with bye weeks and Thrusday night games...we have had 2 straight Sundays with only TWO late games.

Amen and such bad scheduling by the NFL with 2 late games last 2 weeks
There was one week recently that had 6 teams on a bye. That certainly doesn't help....
I know this might sound like sacrilidge ...but I must all games on Sunday afternoon with the sprinkle of Saturday afternoon games late in the season.

I used to LOVE those late season Saturday afternon games. I wish they never stopped scheduling those.

WOW.......the Colts are 5-3 at the halfway point, and are looking strong for one of the AFC Wildcard berths!! Andrew Luck set a rookie single game yardage record today.
