Hope my Steelers can find a way. Football has been great lately and hopefully there's a little more left.
Probably won't get to see much of the game.

^^Clever! Never heard that one before.
Not sure what to expect, you never know what you're going to get from Joey Flacco. Heres hoping he stinks up the joint. I hope Pittsburgh goes no huddle and airs it out early and often.

You ought to root for a team good enough to make the playoffs now and then.Enforcer;1692301 wrote:As a Browns fan I'm rooting for the stadium to blow up 5 minutes Into this game!!! LOL
Agreed with Auto. Flacco is the definition of "x factor" because he's so inconsistent. He'll either throw for 350 and 4-5 TDs or for 120 with a couple picks. Never any middle ground. I'm hoping the fact that over the last couple weeks, he's utterly sucked other than the final quarter or so against Cleveland, is a positive sign, but you never know with him.

Why not the same call for a head hit on the next play on the defenseless receiver, who had just made the catch, sitting up on the ground?

Mike Tomlin's use of timeouts when they are in complete control or running out the half/game is just head-scratchingly bad.....and then Harbaugh almost matched him be allowing the clock to go from 1:04 to 40 seconds when Steelers were 4th and long....but Ravens with their insane kicker are an easy FG to match before the half

Flacco's backward pass that was ruled a fumble should have been ruled incomplete based on the rule that Ed H. explained in the 1st game.

A "pass" that goes behind where the QB releases it and hits the ground is fair game

Not according to Ed Hochuli and Mike Tirico in the 1st game. They both said that the rule is that if the intent of the pass was to be forward, even though it ends up going backward, is an incomplete pass.Ironman92;1692499 wrote:A "pass" that goes behind where the QB releases it and hits the ground is fair game

I didn't see the play in this game as we were coming back from a late dinner, but according to Hochuli in the NFC game earlier today after a review, if the QB is being twisted or anything where the pass is started/aimed in a forward direction and ends up going backward, it is technically still a forward pass and therefore incomplete.Ironman92;1692499 wrote:A "pass" that goes behind where the QB releases it and hits the ground is fair game

Once again a quarterback escape is bad news for the defense.

The flacco fumble was caused by his own teammate's helmet. Clearly a fumble imo.

Not sure his arm ever went forward...as he was wrapped he pulled the ball up the throw away (because he's FUCKING impossible to sack) and hit his lineman's helmet with his hand/ball and ball came loose.ts1227;1692502 wrote:I didn't see the play in this game as we were coming back from a late dinner, but according to Hochuli in the NFC game earlier today after a review, if the QB is being twisted or anything where the pass is started/aimed in a forward direction and ends up going backward, it is technically still a forward pass and therefore incomplete.
Doesn't matter...Steelers can't score TD, and aren't causing turnovers.
Football gods gave me Ohio State and several awesome wins. I hate how this game has went but glad they won 3-4 games more than I thought, sweeping the Bengals was enjoyable but a playoff win would've been more meaningful.
Not interested in AFC Division Championship hats or shirts and schedule will be rough next year.

Ravens fumble immediately negates the big 4th down conversion!
