Re: Predict teams/players that will underperform under new steroid testing program

I kinda fall under the camp of who cares. It's the NFL's job to police this, and they've generally done a good job at cleaning things up in recent years. Regardless of the policy there are always going to be guys who find a way to stay under the radar. And there are plenty of guys who get busted for unknowingly using banned substances too, so it's not always guys who are trying to cheat the system.

PB's suspension is likely related to weed, not a PED.

This is kind of the way I feel. Although I do feel bad when a guy gets in just as much trouble for unknowingly using a banned substance like starcaps.

Also isnt the standard drug suspension 4 games, regardless of the type of drug. If someone is using steroids that's cheating. If someone is smoking weed that's just substance abuse. No way should those 2 things have the same penalty.

I agree. As long as the games are exciting and entertaining I really dont care what the players are or arent taking.

General comment, Pittsburgh is successful because they know how to draft, never waste $ on big contracts players cant live up to, and most importantly have stability in coaching and schemes.
