 YouTube team keep it clean before you get into this video. Make sure you check on your family cause I know we got Hurricane, either headed down here to South Florida between tonight and tomorrow. It's been like windy and rainy, like crazy. So if you got any family down here in South Florida, make sure you check on. Anyway, team keep it clean. Steelers, they remain the NFL's only undefeated team with another squeak it out victory where they just won by the hair of their chinny chin chin. And this was a good game. Real quick shout out to the Cowboys because initially when I first started watching this game, I was thinking, man, that is one of the most dangerous types of teams to go up against a team that has absolutely nothing to play for, nothing to play for. But then I thought about it some more and I was like, wait, but this is the NFC East. They got plenty to play for. Even coming into this game at two and six, the Cowboys had plenty to play for because as we know, Washington and Philly in New York, they're all doing pretty bad overall as a division anyway. So that NFC East as bad as the Cowboys record look coming into this game, they could still be a playoff team because they could still win their division. But anyway, and they're down to what? Their third quarterback, third or fourth quarterback? Cause they obviously lost that press. They lost Andy Dalton and they lost. I forgot their quarterback who started last week, but Gilbert, Gilbert, he, man, all the kudos in the world to that dude because he went up against a very tough defense and he fought, he fought. He did make some mistakes here and there, but this was his very first NFL start. And for your first NFL start to be playing against this Pittsburgh defense, whoo, like stress ain't even the word. But with the Steelers, they've done it again. They've done it again. Now I'll let you argue amongst yourselves on who you think the best team in the NFL is, but by record, it's the Steelers by record. Now are they the best team in the league? Like I said, that's up for you. That's up for debate for you. But their record is undefeated. And while they have got some ugly wins and there have been teams that, lesser opponents that hung with them and Steelers was supposed to be the better team. At the end of the day, they ended up squeezing it out. They ended up squeezing it out. And that's the most important thing. Cause I know a lot of people talk about, oh man, that team hung with you. While that team sucks, they hung with you. Like the Eagles did, they hung with the Steelers. Cowboys obviously hung with the Steelers. And those are obviously two lesser opponents, but at the same time, they were right there. They were close, but they just couldn't pull it off. They just couldn't pull it off. Even the Broncos with Jake Dresswell, I forget the quarterback's name, they hung with the Steelers. But at the end of the day, the biggest thing that matters is the scoreboard at the end of the game. A team can hang with you for half a long, they wanna hang with you, even if it goes to overtime. But if you get more points than them at the end, that's it. In this game, a big person for the Steelers, a big player that came through for the Steelers, big time in the second half, Juju. Juju, Juju Smith-Schuster. He came through big time because his first half was a little quiet, but the second half he kept making play, after play, after play, after play, after play. Huge catches, huge third down catches. Obviously caught the touchdown pass too. And he came through for his team when they needed him the most. Now in this game too, what the Steelers did a lot in the second half, especially in the fourth quarter, they came out empty backfield, empty backfield. And one thing that was frustrating me with the Cowboys, I'm like, okay, Steelers coming out in the empty backfield, and they kept doing it. They kept throwing these short passes to the flats, short pass to the flats, short pass to the flats. And the Cowboys would be playing like 10 yards back. And I'm thinking like, what are you guys thinking? I know you don't wanna get beat over the top. Okay, leave a safety back there. But they just kept giving the Steelers these easy yards over and over and over. And I was thinking like, okay, they'll adjust. Okay, maybe they'll adjust. Okay, maybe this time they'll adjust. No, they didn't. They didn't. And Ben Roslisberger, he took exactly what the Cowboys were giving him. Cause they kept giving it to him. Oh, but then something else we gotta talk about. Oh, the calls in this game, boy. Hey, we know that sometimes with the officiating, it can be so bad. And Steelers fans, y'all know. This game was, yeah, it was one of those. It was definitely one of those. There was some, literally some drive-saving penalties in this game that favored the Steelers. Oh boy. One specifically, what they call rough in the passer, it was like with a guy like Grace Ben Roslisberger's hell man, Grace's face mask barely. It was obviously unintentional. He did Grace it, but it was like, that's what you called him, rough in the passer, that? That? And it was like, oh boy, it was a big yikes. One thing that we as NFL fans wish for would just be consistency with officiating. But I know a lot of times the biggest consistency with officiating can be the inconsistency with officiating. It is just, woo, man. But hey, that's part of the NFL. Even though there are a lot of bad calls that are made, it's your team's job to overcome those bad calls. Now Cowboys, they just, they couldn't overcome their own mistakes. They were getting creative, they were getting tricky. Of course, CD-Lam got the touchdown. Then after that on that punt return, oh boy, the punt returner, he faked like, he had like a cramp or something and they pointed it out. The announcers pointed it out and they were like, oh man, that cramp sure healed up pretty fast. But he was faking like he had a cramp and the other punt returner, he caught the ball and then he pitched it back to him and then the one who faked like he had the cramp, he took off. He was taking off, taking off, taking off, taking off. Then he had one man to beat, one man to hurdle and he hurt him. But then he fell down after the hurdle. And it was like, oh boy, big yikes right there. Cause that's points that you're taking points off the board from yourself. You could have made it easier for your offense. And then with the, oh, the City Land fumble. Oh, it was like every time that the Cowboys, every time they could have not necessarily put the game away, but every time they had a chance to really take a lead, like a significant lead, they would do something and it'd be like, oh man, what are y'all doing? And then the, of course, the interception that Minkovitz Patrick caught too, that was, yeah, that was in the red zone. It was in the red zone. So the Cowboys just kept just squandering these opportunities. But again, you gotta give a shout out to them because they played with heart. They played with heart. They could have been a lot of intimidation coming into this game, steal a seven and no undefeated. They done beat everybody that they played. Cowboys two and six. We done lost to everybody that we played. So they could have had this mindset like, yeah, we suck, but at the same time, if you have that mindset like, yeah, we sucked in, that can actually take a lot of pressure off of you. Because nobody expected this to be a close game, even though I wasn't surprised that it was a close game because this happens with the Steelers a lot. And I'm not saying that they're a bad team because they obviously not, they won all of their games. But with the Steelers, what they tend to do, it happens like every year, especially when Ben Rothersberger plays. But what Steelers tend to do, they can be a hot team. They can be one of the best teams in NFL, but they tend to play down to their competition and they do this a lot. They don't necessarily lose all those games, but they can play down to their competition. And in this game, they did just that. And again, let's not take any credit away from the Cowboys, they played up to their competition. So it all just depends on what side of the glass you wanna look at it from. But again, the Steelers ended up edging it out. So kudos to them, kudos to them. So they at the halfway point of their season, they don't know what a loss feels like. They came close, came very close, but close is not enough. Anyway, congrats Steelers fans and Cowboys fans. Hey, hold your head up, man. I know this was a heartbreaker, especially at the very end too, because the Cowboys, first they had an opportunity. They had an opportunity to go ahead and get a game winning drive. And they, I think they only used one of their timeouts. Cause yeah, cause when they went for it on fourth down, they used that timeout. They were like, okay, we going for it on fourth down. Tony Romo was out here calling out everything ahead of time, like he always does. He was like, oh man, if they're gonna go for it on this fourth down, if they're sure that they're gonna go for it on this fourth down, they need to call the timeout right here. What they do, they call the timeout. They went for it on fourth down, didn't get it. Steelers ran a ball, got stopped, timeout. Steelers ran a ball again, got stopped, timeout. Then Steelers on third down, they ran a ball again, got stopped. But then on fourth down, they decided they wanted to go for it. They wanted to go for it. So they pitched it to, I believe it was James Conner and Cowboys stopped them. So that gave them life again. So it's like, these are the heart wrenching games. The games that just give you so much pain as a football fan, especially if it's your team. So I know Cowboys fans, they were like, oh yeah, we got a shot. But in the back of their mind, they were like, hold up, this is Gilbert. But in the back of their mind also, they were like, hold up, but there's a lot of unknown about him because this is his first start. So he was driving, got that nice pass to CD, well first the pass to Amari Cooper, then the pass to CD Land. And then I forgot who the next pass was to that came right before the last play of the game. But he was moving, but they ended up just coming up short. I am glad though that I was glad that he at least got that last pass of the game off. Cause it's just, it's unfortunate when the plays like that, like on the fourth down play where he got sacked by TJ White, it's unfortunate when those fourth down plays where you got to go for it, where they result in a sack. Well, it's not unfortunate if you're a Steelers fan, but if you're a Cowboys fan it's unfortunate because you just, there's always a lot of what ifs. A lot of what ifs that go through your mind and it leaves you without closure for that game. Because with him getting the pass off, it's like, okay, he got the pass off incomplete. But if he didn't get the pass off, then it makes you wonder like, oh man, what if he would have got the pass off? Who would have caught it? Who would he have thrown it to? What would have happened? And then it could drive you crazy as a football fan. But that's what games like this do. So anyway, team, keep it clean. I appreciate y'all. Hey, I love y'all again. Check up on your family, man. Check up on your family. If you got family and I think it hit Cuba yesterday and I think it may be going to Bahamas, I forget, but that hurricane, the storm, Eda, like I said, I don't know if y'all can hear. Let me be quiet for two seconds and see if y'all can hear it. I've seen if y'all can hear like the rain in the wind outside, but probably not. But anyway, y'all stay safe, be safe. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all. I'll see y'all later. Congrats to the Steelers fans. And again, shout out to the Cowboys fans too because your team fought. Anyway, I appreciate y'all and we out.
