Monday Night Football - Open Thread

In the first of two Monday Night Football games, Browns fans will have an interest as our division-rival Steelers are on the road to battle the Redskins. This is a compelling match-up -- you don't often get to see these type of AFC vs. NFC games that both feature playoff teams. Washington's pass defense should still remain a liability, and without Le'Veon Bell, I expect Ben Roethlisberger to put up big numbers (as we know he can) in another shootout-type-of-game. Steelers 31, Redskins 27

Game: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Washington Redskins
Date/Time: Sunday, September 12, 2016 at 7:10 PM ET
Television: ESPN - Sean McDonough & Jon Gruden

The Rams have Todd Gurley. Other than that, this game should be a hot mess and definitely a lowlight to cap off the week, At least it'll be late in the day where only mostly West Coasters will be subjected to it. Case Keenum vs. Blaine Gabbert is a real Week 1 quarterback match-up, though. Rams 17, 49ers 13

Game: St. Louis Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers
