Does this qualify as a 'Basement' thread?

Biggest cry baby award easily goes to Rock (surprise, surprise).

they started to come on in the Baltimore game but as I've said, the Baltimore tackles were allowed to false start several times which helped stop the edge rush

Non;605857 wrote:I saw them move early a bunch of times. I'm not sure why they were allowed to do that because I haven't noticed it in other games. Oher has even had problems with it. I saw an article a few days ago about how he's had a lot of penalties this year. My point right now is only that I think the Steelers two edge rushers have been playing great the past two games and causing problems but it wasn't as easy to see in that game because of that little extra advantage Baltimore was getting.

I think that might be the pivotal factor in this game today. If the Jets tackles do a good job against Harrison and Woodley, and contain them, I think the Jets will win. But if those two are able to get to Sanchez and force turnovers, particularly a forced fumble or two that sets up the Steelers in good field position, then I think the Steelers win.

Non;605908 wrote:There is a conspiracy but that's not part of it. That was just poor officiating, not watching the line of scrimmage close enough.

The bigger issue is that the NFL has ordered the officials that the late hits and helmet hit guidelines don't count against Roethlisberger. Teams are allowed to hit him any way and there's no penalty.

Non;606035 wrote:Ben has gotten hit late about 10 times in the past three weeks and not one penalty.

If another QB took a couple of those same shots they'd be out for the season.

Obviously there is no link to it because the NFL will deny it but it's clear they're allowing it to be open season on him.

Non;606432 wrote:wow

Jets get the first one

shut up Simms, that was a mugging

Tiger2003;606454 wrote:Wow....another no call...its going to be one of those days.

Non;606464 wrote:he was climbing all over his back

I hate when the announcers try to stick up for the officials too much and then say that obvious penalties are good no calls

that's what happened there with Simms

Tiger2003;606477 wrote:I really don't get why refs pick up flags? They have already picked up 2 flags...why throw it?

LJ;606484 wrote:That holding was a MUGGING

Tiger2003;606485 wrote:Hey a holding call......hmmm

killer_ewok;606486 wrote:Sweet. They didn't pick it up this time.

Non;606487 wrote:that replay was clear as day

the defender was on the receivers back before the ball got there

Simms either didn't see the replay or is making stuff up

LJ;606494 wrote:I thnk a ref has a flag falling out of their pocket

at some point they won't be able to overcome the officiating if they keep getting the shaft

holdingout;606592 wrote:Non...see how calls even out during a game?

Non;606600 wrote:that's not true all the time

they haven't been even the past four Steelers games but the Steelers still won those games

Tiger2003;606652 wrote:Why is holding only 5 yards on the defense but 10 on the offense.

Tiger2003;606659 wrote:Cromartie could have been called for holding right there as well.

Tiger2003;606673 wrote:The Steelers have 0 penalties called against them so far. That will be made up for in the 2nd half.

Non;606797 wrote:that was helmet to shoulder

not even close to as bad as the hit on Miller

how come when that was close they didn't have to call it?

Tiger2003;606799 wrote:Wow what a fucking call.

rock_knutne;606815 wrote:Good call by the Jets on that 4th and one. BTW, anyone else annoyed by the now over 40 minute BJ being administered by Nance and Simms to the Jets?

Tiger2003;606830 wrote:Told you the Steelers would get killed with penalties in the 2nd half.

Non;606834 wrote:if we're following the calls even out theory, the Steelers are due for a free first down

rock_knutne;606966 wrote:How in the hell was that not interference on Revis? He pushed Sanders, it was blatant and Simms says it was perfect coverage, GTFO!

Non;606967 wrote:no but his hands were in the back

I don't think they should call it with the game on the line but I also wouldn't say it was perfect like Simms did

Simms just overlooked the two hands in the back

Non;606981 wrote:helmet hit

Tiger2003;606980 wrote:Wow Holding just saved a TD

Non;606983 wrote:that was a helmet hit on that tackle

they missed two in a row

just because the Jets lost two in a row they're giving them a bunch here

rock_knutne;606984 wrote:Fuch these officials!

Non;606988 wrote:Jets will hold the receivers

and get away with it

for the 50th time today

Tiger2003;606996 wrote:Game Changer the Jets hold on Sanders what would have been the game winner....oh well...win out and the Steelers are still the #2 Seed.

Non;606997 wrote:no question about it

because they lost two in a row they got some extra help

but oh well, Steelers didn't lose any ground with this one

Non;607010 wrote:those are borderline plays I guess but when it's borderline when the Steelers hit somebody they get called for a 15-yard penalty every time

THE4RINGZ;607012 wrote:The hit Clark got called for was more of a game changer. Again this bullshit with te helmet to helmet calls will collapse the NFL. Simply because of the inconsistencies with the calls. Case in point, the hit on Heath Miller. No on field call.

Tiger2003;607018 wrote:Your right it doesn't happen to your team. Its doesn't happen to any other team in the NFL. A no call on the last hold in the endzone that prevented Sanders from scoring the game winning touchdown. It just gets old every week that the Steelers are flagged for everything but nobody else it. Heath Miller gets destroyed no flag....Ben gets his nose broke no flag....But Braylon Edwards is jumping in the air for the ball and the Steelers defender his hit in the chest = 15 yards...

justincredible;607019 wrote:Perhaps the Steelers should have done more to take the officials out of the equation?

Non;607020 wrote:that was a helmet hit I believe on the last reception by the Steelers

it was just in that last second scramble situation so the refs missed it

ball would've been at the 5

Tiger2003;607023 wrote:LMFAO....they did they executed on the game winning drive and the Jets defender held Sanders which prevented him from getting to the ball........I mean seriously are you a fucking idiot I am just asking? They executed through the game...numerous times the Jets were not called for defense PI when it was very blatant.

Non;607025 wrote:no because if they had done more they just would've called it back to keep it close

they let the Jets have one because they lost two in a row, pretty easy to see

cheap game
