FG, stop, TD

 

[( . ) ( . ) and (_!_)]

Bengals are going to Bengal at any second now

 

[86spike]

Kicking? Jesus.

 

[The Big Red Kahuna]

FG correct call

 

[brandonchristensen]

Boo

 

[fiskful of dollars]

Agree w/ FG here. No choice really.

 

[Nator]

Thought a strip sack was looming there.

 

[54thMA]

Make this you fucking stooge

 

[luckiestman]

Kicking? Jesus.

Extending the game

 

[Steve Dillard]

Way to play yourself into a fg with no urgency

 

[LuckyBen]

Bengals are going to Bengal at any second now

Let's save that for next week

 

[Ed Hillel]

Would have gone for that.

 

[nothumb]

agree with FG here. presumably on last drive you are in 4 down territory anyway so easier to go for TD then.

 

[pokey_reese]

I wish they would have gone for it.

 

[86spike]

Marvin knows FGs don't get you 4 points right?

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

I would not have expected CIN to get two straight 2-point conversions if it had been 16-0

 

[staz]

CIN with 2 TO

[AardsmaToZupcic]

field goal/safety/field goal trifecta coming up almost seems to be how this game is feeling.

 

[shawnrbu]

Most unhinged game of the season so far? Hard pressed to think of one that felt more out of control.

Carolina vs. NYG?

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Way to play yourself into a fg with no urgency

Draw play on 1st, 1 yard out on 2nd, nobody open on 3rd and long. That was rough after they moved it so easily until then.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

17 to 15 final?

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

With no Ben, I'm fine with FG. pretty good chance at a quick d stand.

 

[RedOctober3829]

 

[( . ) ( . ) and (_!_)]

Tough to settle for the FG after being very deliberate with the clock on that drive. If they knew FG was going to be their strategy then they had to be moving faster. Giving up a couple first downs here really puts them in a bind

 

[Stitch01]

Fg is bad but it's closer than most of the dumb field goals we are late in games because they're down 8 rather than 7 and the Steelers have no QB

 

[LuckyBen]

17 to 15 final?

16-15

 

[Dehere]

Think FG was the wrong call there.

Left side of Steeler oline excellent on last possession. Right side got owned. Interesting play calling coming up here to say the least.

 

[theXman]

Big Ben is coming back into this game

 

[patinorange]

I wish they would have gone for it.

They should be able to stop the back up quarterback. On the other hand, they are the Bengals and Pittsburgh probably rips off multiple running plays to kill the clock.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

field goal/safety/field goal trifecta coming up almost seems to be how this game is feeling.

Pittsburgh running for a few first downs and Cinci never seeing the ball again actually feels about right.

 

[GeorgeCostanza]

Plenty of time and D has been good. No brainier FG there. Especially with Ben out. Trust the D.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Fg was fine, but they killed 2:30 that they didn't need to

 

[LuckyBen]

Shit, who do I root for now???

 

[staz]

Ben's back! Go Steelers!

 

[patinorange]

Oh oh. It's Paul Pierce.

 

[Nator]

Uh oh. The rape man cometh.

 

[johnmd20]

Ben R is like plastic man.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

I've never been so happy to see a rapist back out.

 

[DonBuddinE6]

17 to 15 final?

Zero chance of that. If Bengals score, they go for 2.

 

[TrotWaddles]

Instant HGH for Big Ben.

 

[Average Reds]

Ben proving that drugs are good.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I would not have expected CIN to get two straight 2-point conversions if it had been 16-0

If Tomlin were the coach of like Jacksonville or something he would easily have been fired long ago.

 

[PseuFighter]

nothing a little hgh can't fix

 

[Jnai]

Ben was just a decoy?

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Nantz: OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS. OF ALL THE DRAMATIC THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN!

 

[BroodsSexton]

Hit him again.

 

[johnnywayback]

Not like Ben to take no for an answer.

 

[DJnVa]

His helmet is on because it's fucking pouring Nantz.

 

[mwonow]

Well...hell. WTF?

 

[rembrat]

Jones coming back out ruined that sploogefest.
