 [sm_disgust] [sm_disgust] [sm_disgust]

ben=roadkill  ;)

nobody in the league would even still be in the game except maybe kitna (who is used to being pressured this much).   literally every play he's been pressured within 3 seconds.  many plays within 2.  most players would physically be broken in half because htey couldnt evade the hits he can.

yikes 21-7  :'(

will be interesting to see what kind of adjustments the steelers try to make.  defense cant pressure the broncos QB,  offense can't protect its own QB.

not a good combination

1st and 10, henry up the middle for a hard 4-5

2nd and 6. from the 9. 2TE set left, parker hit in the backfield for -4

 :)

2nd and goal....  play fake, TD easy over the middle to the TE.

28-14 at the end of the 3rd quarter.

 [sm_shock]

well, i'm done with this thread,  time to get absolutely *fudge*ed up.  this season is done.  had a chance to get a huge lead over the ravens,  and don't even show up to play.

get exposed as still having major pass protection issues.  they'll be lucky to finish 500 now after this embarassment.

You could be rooting for the Vikings.  :sad3:

true.
lol


that said, this team doesnt hold focus well.  a sign of bad coaching.  they lose to AZ,  then steamroll the seahawks. then come out totally flat tonight after a BYE week.

disgraceful, and unacceptable.


hey guess what.  run left, loss,  run left, no gain,  run right,  huge gain.   

who's been saying that all game?
 :-\

well, *feces* .  steelers tie it at 28-28 with 1:10 to go.    something tells me they scored too soon though

D-fense

D-fense

D-fense

I thought you were done with this thread?

BTW Aske, Matt Spaeth is from a small town about 30 minutes north of where I live.

called it,  donks already in FG range with 30 seconds to play

well, it could always be blocked and ran in for a td.

THAT WAS A *goshdarn* FUMBLE
 >:( >:( >:(

steelers get screwed

disgusting officiating to rule that on the field that way

:(

if there is doubt the officials are SUPPOSED TO RULE IT A FUMBLE ON THE FIELD  NOT INCOMPLETE. 


i hope that *bunghole* suffers a painful death.

crap

It's up, it's good.

ELAM!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D

steelers season = over.  must win game and they show up to play 3 quarters too late, then the officials hand it over to  denver anyways

Hey, aske, did you know that if there is doubt the officials are SUPPOSED TO RULE IT A FUMBLE ON THE FIELD  NOT INCOMPLETE?

i do, but apparently the officials don't.   interestingly the nfl made that a 'major issue'  to start the 2005 or 2006 season, i can't remember.  if they rule it that way,  the review can fix it either way.  if they rule it incomplete, the review can't change possession of the fumble (like what just happened to the steelers).

i'm sick.   i HATE bad officiating on simple obvious things like that.

As a Broncos fan since the days of Morton and Upchurch, I can't say I'm sad about the win....

Ever think of becoming a ref?  Or at least school some refs in on the rules?

Yeah, I remember the Vikes had that problem in the the first round of the playoffs in 2004 against the Pack. (Actually, the whole game was full of bad reffing.) At least we still won that game.  No thanks to the refs. 

Well, there's still next week for the Steelers, too. :-\

Relax. Steelers should have been called for a false start on their scoring drive. The flag graphic even showed up on the screen. That penalty, had it been called, may have prevented the Steelers from scoring in the first place. You should feel lucky that Pittsburgh even had a chance to win it in the end.

if you say so,  admittedly i was watching the ALCS until i saw the 'red zone' light flash on CBS sportsline on my pc at 28-21  as I had given up on the game



 [sm_shock]  nonetheless, a missed judgement call on a false start is far less of an egregious error than the mental error/choice  of forgetting/violating the major 'policy' of how they are supposed to officiate the close judgement calls on possession change plays  $.02
