Week 11 Game Thread

[Ed Hillel]

Oh boy, here we go again with the spot.

 

[shawnrbu]

Interesting spot.  And Detroit cannot challenge.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Detroit has no timeouts to challenge lol. Game is over, they can kneel.

 

[Dgilpin]

These officials are fucking terrible in Arizona

 

[shawnrbu]

Detroit has no timeouts to challenge lol. Game is over, they can kneel.

 
I didn't want to think about 4th and 2 tonight.

 

[Morgan's Magic Snowplow]

Spot seemed a bit generous.  Thanks for not showing us the replay Fox.

 

[brienc]

 
It will be interesting to see their view of Foles now.

Eagles fans are leaving rose petals on his driveway as I write this.

Like it matters , all the other spot calls that have been reviewed were held up anyway

 

[Section15Box113]

Unbelievably bad spot. And outside of 2:00, so game over.

Turrible.

 

[GBrushTWood]

I pray the Pats don't see Jerome Bogar the rest of this season. What an explicably shitty display of officiating.

 

[Ed Hillel]

I feel badly for you guys, I think you were pretty royally Bogar'd tonight.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That was an awful spot. He was a good 2 feet short.

 

[shawnrbu]

Might have been a full yard short.

 

[Section15Box113]

Just showed the replay. Detroit got jobbed.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Boger might be the worst official going in any sport right now.

 

[Stitch01]

Boger reffing a playoff game this year would mean the NFL guves zero fucks about officiating quality.

salivating at a potential two home games and Arizona Super Bowl path

 

[Brand Name]

Detroit got jobbed.

Doubtful.

 

[Dollar]

And that's why you always save a timeout for the end of the 4th quarter!
 

 

[Senator Donut]

Is there a German compound word to describe the feeling of enjoying six and a half hours of NFL Red Zone and knowing your favorite team has yet to play?

Doubtful.

10/10

 

[Section15Box113]

Doubtful.

Really? You think that was a good spot? Likely would have punted and the Lions would have had a last shot.

To be clear, not implying that Bogar was on the take.

And not saying they would have won, but for that call. Especially since they needed 8 to tie.

But, if that call had been made correctly, the game wasn't over and we might have seen another Alcoa Fantastic Finish.

Bullshit that it ends on a terrible spot like that.

Too much to ask that the refs get it right in a big game? Apparently, yes.

 

[Brand Name]

It was a bullshit spot, but you're missing my intentions.

 

[Senator Donut]

I thought it was a Detroit economy joke

Edit: what DJ Jr said 17 seconds before me

 

[mikeford]

Boger might be the worst official going in any sport right now.

Tim Peel

 

[Section15Box113]

It was a bullshit spot, but you're missing my intentions.

Missed that one. My bad!

 

[Freddy Linn]

Edit: oops

 

[mascho]

This. Is. Tremendous.

On the CSN Washington postgame show, Skins legend Brian Mitchell had seen enough.  In two minutes of airtime, the former running back and return man showed more heart and desire than the Redskins did for four quarters against the Bucs.  As far as hometown broadcasts and ex-players go, this is about as critical as you’re going to see.  And it’s all deserved.

 

[dixielandbandana]

LP Field looking like home turf for the Steelers on the pre-game!

 

[Fred in Lynn]

I went to brush the kids' teeth and it's 10-0.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

What does Tennessee have to lose? Go for the TD for God's sake.

[JerBear]

How do you take a sack against a 3 man rush there?

 

[simplyeric]

Ben with a shot to the head.
Any given play, and a seemingly unremarkable tackle will knock him out of the league.

Sadly, I don't think he'll age well.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Big Ben takes way too many sacks. A lot has been blamed on his Oline over the years, and that's certainly part of it, but he just holds and holds and holds. He gets all the credit for extending plays, but the same thing that allows him to do that also gets him sacked a shit ton.

 

[dynomite]

Big Ben saw Brady's INT before halftime last night and I was like "I can do one better!"

 

[Ed Hillel]

There's Ben again. Every play has to be a completion.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Best team in the AFC!

 

[staz]

Oops

 

[dynomite]

Hahaha.  #Steelerstown.

 

[bankshot1]

Take a kneee!!!!

[Fred in Lynn]

The two sides of the Steelers are something to behold. It's perplexing how a team so locked in at times could look so awful at others.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Gay got burned, but what was the safety doing?

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Zero adjustments from Pitt.  Todd Haley at work.

 

[MentalDisabldLst]

Tennessee is clowning the Steelers secondary.
 
Tennessee.  The Titans.  What the hell am I typing here?

 

[ypioca]

Pittsburgh is so fuckin' weird.

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Zach looks like an NFL QB

 

[MentalDisabldLst]

On that 2nd down play, James Harrison - having missed the sack when Mettenberger threw it out the back of the endzone - continued to lie there twisting the leg and knee of the QB for a few seconds.
 
That guy has never really learned the difference between intense defense and pointless douchebaggery.

It does in fact have a point--to hurt the opposing players so you have a better chance of winning. 

 

[MentalDisabldLst]

oh, I know the objective, I just find it despicable, even in a fairly violent game.  This isn't the UFC.
 
Nice scramble by Big Ben there.  He ran like the rapebot was coming after him.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Helmet to Miller's head.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

That's a TD.
