Steelers and Ravens

[Pete]

I kind of thought that as well, but that ball bouncing out may move them back with a loss of the down - it might backfire.

BINGO! dumb asses should have just pounded it in and got 7 now they got nothing AND lost a challenge

That might take the crowd out of the game for a bit! Ben looks kind of shaky with his passes tonight.

I was under the impression Harbaugh challenged that. That's what the announcers just said anyway. I wasn't really paying attention.

That might be true, but that's an absolutely terrible rule. He had the ball in his grasp for long enough. Stupid stupid rule.

something we can agree on.

It use to not be that way, it use to be "ground cannot cause a fumble" - I am pretty damn sure that was a rule change last year or this year. A few teams lost games on this rule this year... I agree, I think it should revert back to "ground cannot cause a fumble", period.

well i just looked into the rule a little more. Evidently if his knee had hit the ground first, it was a catch. But since he dove for the goalline and his knee didn't hit before the upper part of his body, and the ball popped out, it became incomplete. If his knee hit, then the ball popped out in the exact some way, it would have been a catch. That's a dumb rule.

Looks like it wants to snow there in Pittsburg's stadium, but it' to-o-o-o c-o-l-d! Every once in awhile, you'll notice a flurry or two!

Brrrr......

Refs just got saved from a HORRIBLE call on the roughing the kicker...

Who will show up to play, and who wants it more? My $$$ is on the Ravens. :shrug:

Hey OHG - your girl is singing the National Anthem

Yes she was. Hope it brings the Ravens goodluck. GO RAVENS

It IS colder than HELL in Pittsburgh! Poor Ben had the time to avoid a sack, but didn't, or couldn't get out of the way - fast enough!

He got nailed.

I saw you comment on FB.

Pittsburgh's defense certainly looks to be up to the task, so far.

GAME!!!!!

 

[Pandora]

What happened? I went to the bathroom and missed it!

 

[Penn]

GAME!!!!!

It's all over, except for the crying. Steelers have the ball, from a Ravens fumble; 3:39 left to go in the 4th period.

Oh well. Next year maybe. (Isn't that a Redskin soliloquy? )

McGehee caught the ball and a head on collision by Clark (Steelers) - it was a clean hit, but violent...
