It goes way back, they just get under my skin.

Kentwood has changed quite a bit in the last 5-10 years.

I'm surprised Len didn't go back and delete all his pre-comback posts. Hatin on the Steelers in the post season is getting to be a yearly thing. I thought that toothache would of quieted you?

Not sure what you mean. Spot them 14 points at the beginning. I think they had 100 yards of offense. The quarterback fell apart under the pressure. Not much more to it. Won't be the same for Brady and people in Pittsburgh know it. But, thats why they play the game.

I mean Pitt played terrible. They got the benefit of a couple key calls and Flacco couldn't recover from his sprained labia in the second half. They were very lucky to escape with a win.

Edit: Their defense played very well, always does. But the headline is "Big Ben engineers comeback"....what? The headline should have been "Steelers find 4 leafed clover in azz"

Has there ever been a Steeler victory that you didn't attribute, luck, poor officiating, or the other team giving the game to them on the way to 15 AFC title game and 7 super bowls? Just askin.

no

Well I'm 2 for 2 and feeling insufferably pleased with myself.

Lendaddy, Steelers won that one through determination and solid play.

Came down to the QB's just like I said. Big Ben made it happen. Flacco choked big time.

That 3rd and 19 conversion was EPIC!!!

Green Bay's defense stepped up. Rodgers showed the poise of a playoff veteran, and is living up to the hype.

Never bet on an inexperienced quarterback in the postseason when he's up against a reliable and stable veteran.

Buckterrier · 01-16-2011, 03:53 AM

2 fer 2 hère also.

Will be interesting how Cutler plays. And of course as a football fan the Patys/Jet game should be awesome.

pavulon · 01-16-2011, 05:36 AM

The Packers looked better than most ever thought they could this year...hope it wasn't only a reflection of how poorly the Falcons played.

They'll be foaming at the mouth around here for another week...well, as foamy as bratwurst and cheese curds can be made to be foamy any way

The F'ing NFL should be ashamed of themselves. Ben takes a shot to the knee, NO PENALTY, AGAIN!!!!!!!. If that was Tommy, (wasn't there a new Brady rule about this????????????), the game would have been called, Patys win, they are anointed Super Bowl champs and he gets to bang his super model wife.

......... "Why ya hatin' on the the Stillers?"

Why ya hatin' on the Patriots?

Jealousy is such an ugly emotion.

Did you watch a different game? They played terrible on offense, simply terrible. Flacco did choke, big time. That is partially due to Pitt's defense...but again I said they played well.

They were handed three drives that started essentially IN the red zone, those were their only scores in the second half(save for that last debacle). They were handed those points and they still tried to screw it up.

The "epic" catch was a great throw, dead on the money(Ben's only one of the game that I can recall)...the receiver made it way more difficult than it had to be and should have walked in for a TD had he not bobbled the easy catch and instead chose to pin it one handed against his helmet for pete's sake.

The phantom holding call on the Ravens TD and the BS defensive holding call on the stand combined with the "how could you not rag that" tackle that the Steelers lineman put on the guy about to down Mendenhall in the backfield (on the very same play mind you) are just some of the good fortune I speak of.

Play like that loses 9 of 10 games in the NFL...this one was number 10. All I ask is you Steeler fans thank the football gods for your continued good fortune.

note:I'm gonna see if I can find a youtube of that goaline holding play....it was comical.

lendaddy · 01-16-2011, 07:02 AM

Here is the "Holding" to nullify the ravens PR TD..watch at about 1:00 to see.....well....whatever it was they ragged #11 for.

flskala · 01-16-2011, 08:15 AM

Gloat all you want Steelers fans - The Pats or the Jets will take them out next week...
It feels so great to have hung the only (L) they have ever had in a SB by MY team!!!
peace.

flatbutt · 01-16-2011, 11:06 AM

so far Da Bears are killin'! I'm also 2 fer 2.

Tyson Schmidt · 01-16-2011, 12:00 PM

Seahawks are hurting without Carlson. He was key on third down.

Hey Jim, I used to like them when they had Grogan, Hannah, the like. I actually was rooting for them in the 85' SB.
This version just get's under my skin, (see Daddy's Stiller hatin'). A big part of it is Tommy. No QB in the history of the NFL has been coddled so much. But also Belichick. He used the Jets to get a cool mil then leaves for Foxboro. Even Kraft, used Hartford to get a better deal in Foxboro. Yeah I know, al's fair in love & war.

Not sure what your point is. He dragged the guy down. Besides there were calls, (bad calls), on both sides. See my post earlier on the knee hit on Ben, a none call. I hate bad calls as much as anyone but 99 % of the time they don't win or lose a game.
But I understand your tude. I have the same one against the Patys

89911 · 01-16-2011, 12:15 PM

Only one good throw? Maybe you need to upgrade to HD television. The throw threaded to Ward for a TD I guess doesn't count. I think Len wants to return to the college ranking system for football. Just beating a team isn't good enough anymore.
