The AP is reporting that somebody who apparently plays football for the Pittsburgh Steelers has guaranteed a win against the undefeated New England Patriots this week. The Patriots are making a bid at history, trying to become the first team ever to go 16-0 in an NFL season.

Farrior continued, “Whoever the hell he is, we’ve got his back come Sunday. But I wish he’d just shut up.”
