This. He did exactly what this Baltimore team (led by him) has been unable to do and that's both: A) Win at Heinz Field and B) Sweep Pittsburgh. That said, you can probably understand why Harbaugh got the Gatorade bath like they won the damn SB. THIS was their SB. They were the beneficiaries of some BAD calls that resulted in points, but bottom line: Pittsburgh didn't have enough faith in their kicker to nail a 48-yarder and their defense ultimately gave up the GW 92-yard drive. Props to Baltimore. SB's aren't won in November and I'd LOVEEEEE to see these guys again. Ugh, but for now gotta let them have their moment.
Oh, and P.S. Congrats to Terrell Suggs for getting completely owned by a guy that was laying on his couch eating Baked Lays a month ago. Good thing Ben threw that ball right to him otherwise he'd have no reason sing, dance and grab the camera on the sidelines....would he??
it wasn't a 48 yarder. there was a delay of game penalty so it turned into a 53 yard kick - big difference.
No, it was a 48-yarder. Tomlin was indecisive before the DOG penalty. He took responsibility for it in the post-game presser.
I am assuming the delay was a result of them changing their mind and were just going to punt. Otherwise, you'd think someone would have called a time out (at a minimum a coach).
My comment after that game (when everyone here was so giddy about the domination) was it didn't count because the 49ers weren't a legit NFL team. I watched a lot of SFO/WAS yesterday and they didn't look impressive. If the 49ers are to advance in the playoffs, they better fix their red-zone problems. They haven't looked that great to me the last couple of games but there are 8 weeks to go.
Isn't that what Rockets fans did with the Mavs until they won a title? And what Astros fans did with the Rangers until they won a playoff series? Everyone does it - they randomly pick timeframes and standards to make their team the best.
I've got a 17 point lead. I have Shady McCoy. He has Micheal Vick. Receiving tds are 6 points. Gonna be a sweat. PPR, .5 point for receptions.
After the snap. Whats funny is the RB cut it back towards Sanchez, and he had to block. He got called for holding.
