Hate the giants... go steelers Also, we need a frickin "general sports" forum so stuff like these can go in there.. Support my thread in Clutchfans Feedback!
Raiders have now allowed opposing QBs to throw for 9 TD passes and over 800 yards in games where their fathers have passed away previously in the week.
Wow, that's a terrible call. Granted, Pittsburgh probably would've scored anyway being one inch away, but it sucks to have officials step in and make the deciding play.
Today's game reminds me of Roethlisberger in his rookie year where he would stink most of the game and turn into Joe Montana in the 4th quarter. I don't care how much he bumbles around most of the game, the guy is just clutch with the game on the line. He isn't the best QB, but nobody in the NFL raises his game higher from their normal level when it counts than Big Ben.
Its the NFL and the "Year of the Refs"... I just cant wait to see what messed up call we'll all see in the Superbowl this year.
You again. Watch it closely and pause it the moment you see possession with his feet down and watch where the ball is. It's precisely in line with the goal line and that's clearly what the officials saw. Was it conclusive? Indisputable? Blatantly obvious? No, it wasn't and maybe that's part of the problem. Just don't lose sight of the fact that you can easily make an argument that it was good. Plus, at the one inch yard line you can all make up your own mind whether they could have got in on the next play. P.S. I enjoyed hearing pompous toolbag Keith Olbermann on the NBC Pre-Game show playing the same card he played after the Steelers-Bolts game whenever Polamalu's late TD was incorrectly erased by the officials in which he sided with the officials. Never underestimate the power of instant replay! A_3PO agreed entirely. Between him & Eli Manning i'm not sure who to fear more in the 4th quarter.
LOL! T.O. getting booed by his own home crowd. I'm loving this stuff. I will love it more if the Cowboys lose. I will love it even more if they lose in blowout fashion.
like how the cowboys have sacked manning 11 times this season between the 2 games, and he's been sacked 11 times by the other 12 teams.
They have definitely played better the second half of the season especially since Wade took over the play calling. With last week and this week so far the defense is playing like the fans have been waiting for. This is they way it was supposed to be with the hire of Wade and his 3-4. I love it. If the offense could get over the drama then the team COULD have a chance to do something.
i picked up the Dallas D in all 4 leagues a number of weeks ago.. don't know if it's Wade's playcalling. I give a lot of credit to the secondary finally being more healthy than it had been previously (even if Pacman was only in for a sec)
