Coughlin could be coaching his last game with the Giants after 12 seasons and two Super Bowl championships. He has thrown for over 300 yards six times in that span and has thrown 17 touchdowns.
In Sunday’s 28-12 win over the Cleveland Browns, running back DeAngelo Williams suffered a right ankle in the second quarter and did not return to the game.
Also, for those who are wondering, enjoy some lively commentary with the best Steelers fans across the globe in the open thread available to all BTSC members in the comment section below. Atkins had a sack late in the first game, but for the most part, the interior pass rush that has been so good this season hasn’t been as disruptive against the Steelers. “Going back to there, that was more trust and accountability than it was necessarily the act”. The Jets got walloped by the Bills on Sunday in Buffalo – in flawless Rex Ryan middle finger fashion – and the Steelers win means they’re in despite the fact they nearly lost their way out.
Last season, the Steelers lost starter Le’Veon Bell to a hyper-extended knee during their Week 17 game against the Cincinatti Bengals and that resulted in former running backs Dri Archer, Josh Harris and Ben Tate all having to all play in the Wild Card loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
This list could begin and end with Mitchell, the seventh-year veteran out of Highlands High School and Ohio University. But he’s not just a trash talker – Mitchell finished the regular season with nine passes defensed and 60 tackles to go with three interceptions and two forced fumbles.

The victory gave Detroit a two-game sweep of Chicago for the third consecutive year and boosted coach Jim Caldwell’s chances of keeping his job as the Lions went 6-2 the second half of the season after starting 1-7. But, he is around the ball, with six passes defensed and an interception on the year. Forte had 110 yards rushing and receiving, and he matched the Johnson touchdown on the next possession by doing a masterful job of tip-toeing down the sideline with a Jay Cutler screen pass for a 23-yard touchdown play that tied the game at 17. Defensively, the Steelers yield 278.2 yards in passing and 91.5 yards in rushing.
