Thursday Night Football: Open Thread (Browns v. Steelers)

According to this learned treatise, we should all be pulling for the Browns tonight. I know that won't be easy, but you're a Texans fan. You've made a life out of pulling for crappy football teams (this year excepted, of course). You can do it!

Rooting for a bad team is made slightly easier by penning and reading sassy comments from your fellow fans. Hence, we give you this lovely open thread for Thursday Night Football. Go forth and multiply. Your comments, I mean.

Not really fair to say Yates>McCoy when Yates is on a team and in a system where he could step in and succeed immediately.
