Game over man

Dutch · 01-23-2005, 07:35 PM

Ouch. Okay, this looks like a good time to get off the couch today and actually do something.

QuikSand · 01-23-2005, 07:36 PM

Huge instant replay call. Correct, I believe, but huge.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:37 PM

yeah definitely huge. but it saved big ben from throwing another INT

TLK · 01-23-2005, 07:39 PM

I'm glad I took the Pats today... it'll help me get over my realization that the Lions will never make the Super Bowl in my lifetime

Steelers, listen to me. Keep Bettis off the field unless it's a short yardage situation.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:43 PM

booo new england ball. come on!

does it really matter at this point?

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:44 PM

got lucky again with that almost-interception

If you're trying to win the game, yes. The only thing they're achieving by running Bettis is putting themselves in X and long situations and running the clock.

Desnudo · 01-23-2005, 07:46 PM

Bettis got lucky they blew that play dead. Definitely a fumble.

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 07:48 PM

Boom. Still a game, and I win my second half over bet.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:48 PM

hmm... ben is alright when not throwing interceptions

SirFozzie · 01-23-2005, 07:49 PM

Great play by the kid there. As I sad, this is not over by a longshot..

and that WAS A fumble, but there was no way they could tell who recovered it, so i guess that's a good non-call.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:53 PM

no way is that a catch

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 07:53 PM

Incredibly huge review coming up here. No catch.

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 07:54 PM

The endzone angle looks pretty clear to me that almost the entire ball hammers the ground.

QuikSand · 01-23-2005, 07:54 PM

Tough call on the IR... doesn't look conclusive to me.

temley06 · 01-23-2005, 07:54 PM

no catch

Noop · 01-23-2005, 07:54 PM

There is going to be alot of dick punching in Pitt tonight.

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 07:55 PM

Isn't this the Bert Emmanuel rule. So it would be catch....

I certainly don't envy the ref. I think this is as close a call as possible.

JAG · 01-23-2005, 07:55 PM

Tough call. I'll be interested to see their interpretation.

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 07:57 PM

Randel El has been great in the second half.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:57 PM

good thing they left bettis out there

Joe · 01-23-2005, 07:58 PM

and harrison is down. uh-oh

temley06 · 01-23-2005, 07:59 PM

This would be a big loss for NE

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 07:59 PM

NE's defense is on their heels right now.

You had it right the first time, Bert Emmanual was the guy. From the Tampa/St. Louis championship game in 99.

Desnudo · 01-23-2005, 08:02 PM

I wonder if Asante Samuel practices with the Seahawks receivers in the offseason.

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 08:02 PM

If they get in the endzone, things may get a little uncomfortable in New England.

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 08:02 PM

Knew it was that game just couldn't remember the receiver.

Vince · 01-23-2005, 08:02 PM

Shouldn't there be 7 seconds left on the clock if Ward stepped out of bounds?

Unless you are in the last 5 minutes of either half, the clock restarts when the refs set the ball and signal they're ready for play.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 08:03 PM

nice hands, burress

up until the final 5 minutes (I think) the clock runs when they place the ball after a out of bounds play.

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 08:04 PM

Go or kick??

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 08:04 PM

what? terrible play-calling on this series at the goal line.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 08:04 PM

tough break

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 08:05 PM

Key stand for the Pats defense. The Steelers had them on the ropes.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 08:05 PM

kicking was the right decision, they wouldve gotten stuffed again

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 08:06 PM

I'd be going bonkers if I'm a Steerlers fan right now. If you're willing to kick the ball, why not try to pound it in there 3 times in row? I just think coaches don't think 1 step ahead sometimes.

Exactly. Why did they change from what was working to two runs up the gut and a throw to a double-covered Plaxico? You might as well have handed the Patriots a script.

cthomer5000 · 01-23-2005, 08:10 PM

Very, very big 3rd down coming up. The clock is really going to become a factor, since the Steelers have to score twice. You can't let the Pats move the ball at all.

Joe · 01-23-2005, 08:11 PM

tick... tick.... tick...

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 08:11 PM

Keep giving the ball to Dillon.

kingfc22 · 01-23-2005, 08:12 PM

dola

Stay in bounds!!
