Nice series

 

[pokey_reese]

Still can't just run into the teeth of that Denver defense.

 

[LesterFan]

What the hell was that playcalling?

 

[soxhop411]

GJGE pit

 

[BigSoxFan]

Now for the shanked punt

 

[mauidano]

Very conservative.

 

[soxhop411]

.

 

[rodderick]

I don't think the Pats run the ball 10 times against either of these teams next week.

That'd be my strategy pretty much every week.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Wow, Steelers put clamps on their offense.

 

[ypioca]

Maybe running some more will work.

 

[fenwaypaul]

Roethlisberger no longer able to throw the ball?

 

[Manzivino]

First and 2nd down run calls were way too conservative. Can't just hand off into the heavy front, have to at least try some misdirection

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Pittsburgh just needs to go up >8 to lock up the win but can't get over the hump.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I can't seem to move the ball...

 

[RedOctober3829]

Can't fault the play calling there. Backed up like that the last thing needed is a turnover.

 

[staz]

Time for a douch chilling pick6

 

[ilol@u]

Have to be due for a Manning INT

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I guess we see why Tomlin lets his best player field punts.

Don't make a mistake, let your defense and special teams do its thing, keep it close until the fourth quarter when the altitude takes its toll. This Broncos team is fucking infuriating. Feel like we all know how this one ends -- not exactly but we have the general idea.

 

[rodderick]

The Broncos keep getting great field position, eventually they'll break an explosive play and get ahead. Pitt has to be more aggressive on offense, unless Ben is really limited.

 

[staz]

Have to be due for a Manning INT

Beat you

 

[Norm Siebern]

Goodell is in Denver today so he can have an excuse to be in Carolina next week. He doesn't want to be anywhere near a NE game until he must be.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Steelers still playing like they need to keep the Denver D honest and throw in token runs.

Pats don't do that.

 

[3rd Degree]

The Steelers are apparently running the Dom Capers zone right now. Cushions everywhere.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Anderson is damn good.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Can't fault the play calling there. Backed up like that the last thing needed is a turnover.

It worked out but given the punter's woes today it was risking a virtual turnover with another bad punt.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Why does Hillman get carries?

 

[mauidano]

Chewing up yardage now, c'mon Defense.

 

[Section15Box113]

Solidly over 50% passing.

 

[brandonchristensen]

SACKKKK

 

[pokey_reese]

Dangit, Denver is still gonna win this, aren't they?

 

[rodderick]

Harrison has added old man strength to his arsenal.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Dangit, Denver is still gonna win this, aren't they?

they aren't going to not lose it, yes.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Nice blocking

 

[brandonchristensen]

Sick toss by PEDon.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Their fourth FG is going to give them the lead lol.

 

[speedracer]

quackquackquack

 

[brandonchristensen]

Oh weird, that's just how he throws it.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Can't believe Pitt doesn't have an INT today

 

[eddiew112]

LOLLLLL

 

[Freddy Linn]

Haha

 

[Al Zarilla]

Sick toss by PEDon.

Quack.

 

[Brand Name]

 

[staz]

ACTUALLY IT WAS JUST A SHITTY PASS

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

Simms and Nantz refusing to believe that ball was not tipped

 

[bigsid05]

Just horrendous throws.

 

[The Celtbot]

It was tipped, wait no, it just came out of his hand funny.

 

[Hendu for Kutch]

That was awesome. Trying to sell the tip when it was obviously just a shit throw.

 

[Average Reds]

Lol "that was tipped. Oh, never mind."

 

[uncannymanny]

That was fucking. Classic.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Tough side of the field, Jim.
