Wild Card Weekend Gamethread

[shawnrbu]

I am really bored. Will the late game be better? I hope

The result won't be. Eli is going to win his 9th consecutive playoff game.

 

[Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt]

That missed PAT is just the opening Miami needs! #momentumshift

 

[mostman]

Just tuning in. Wow.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Lol. No. The issues isn't Tannehill, who is a middle of the pack a QB. Without pouncey the online is starting third string center. They average over 160 yards a game rushing last two years when pouncey and two tackles start and are 10-1. The rest of the O is fine. Can upgrade TE after they lost Cameron for year. He sucked anyways.

The defense is atrocious. It was bad before losing all pro safety jones and both starting CBs. And two starting LBs. And starting tackle next to Suh. And Williams at DE. The entire D needs revamping. And their coordinator is leaving

#freehernandez!

 

[Senator Donut]

Jay Feeley has already added more to this broadcast than Simms

 

[Captaincoop]

Stop the fight.

 

[DanoooME]

The flags on the goalposts were barely moving on that kick. The kicker just sliced it.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Officials slow to converge on the pile.

 

[johnmd20]

I really do love how all the players point in their own team's direction after the fumble. Someone made a joke about that recently, it's true. The refs are like, "Oh, 10 Pitt players points versus Miami's 7, Pitt ball. No need to look under the pile."

 

[E5 Yaz]

This is where some Miami player tries to do too much and commits a turover

 

[Clears Cleaver]

um...Really???

*s*. Many, many more missing pieces -- mediocre OL, average receivers, less than mediocre secondary, some good LBer and DL guys, but Suh takes up way too much cap space. Oh, yeah, and the QB. If you watched even their wins they did not play that well.

The WRs are fine. Landry, Still and Parker are fine. The draft pick from Rutgers disappointed.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Fortuitous bounce

 

[Al Zarilla]

Oh.My.God.

Nope, further rape of Miami averted for now.

 

[rymflaherty]

I didn't really expect Miami to win, but this F'n sucks so far.

That's more what I see. D is better than we've seen against the two best offenses in AFC last two weeks, but it's not up to snuff.

 

[johnmd20]

Miami can't handle the cold. Who could have seen that coming?

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I don't think I've ever seen a TD drive of 10 or more plays and 80 yards where every single play went to the same player.

If the Steelers start their next drive with play action, Brown will get a 75 yard touchdown.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

I wonder how many of those Dolphins long winter parkas they sell at the Pro Shop at the Orange Bowl or whatever the fuck they call their home stadium. Poulan Weedwacker Field?

 

[DanoooME]

Might as well go for it.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Its 17 degrees with a wind chill at 4. Suck it up. That's not that bad. It is January.

 

[shawnrbu]

Gase is such a coward until he fakes!

 

[Stitch01]

Should go for it. What the hell good does punting it back do?

 

[bosockboy]

Will the Steelers be road favorites against KC?

 

[Silverdude2167]

You have to go for this right?

 

[Captaincoop]

God, I hate the Steelers.

 

[Kliq]

Where is Joey Porter?

 

[Cellar-Door]

That spot was terrible also Heyward bey needs to be tossed here.

 

[DanoooME]

Shocker! Steeler cement-heads losing their shit

 

[shawnrbu]

Will the Steelers be road favorites against KC?

No. The Steelers are a different team on the road.

 

[Captaincoop]

How is that not a penalty against Pittsburgh?

 

[McBride11]

Yes, but the game thread will be worse

Apollo 13 is on History channel. We can game thread that. I'm not sure how it ends, exciting!

 

[Harry Hooper]

Nice surge at the LOS by Miami.

 

[Cellar-Door]

How did 45 not get a penalty there? That was super dirty .

 

[Al Zarilla]

I don't think I've ever seen a TD drive of 10 or more plays and 80 yards where every single play went to the same player.

If the Steelers start their next drive with play action, Brown will get a 75 yard touchdown.

Maybe Jim Brown, or OJ Simpson when he set the game yards mark (broken later). But, yeah.

 

[NortheasternPJ]

What was Heyward Bay so fired up about?

 

[Kliq]

That spot was terrible also Heyward bey needs to be tossed here.

But the Rooney family would never allow for a player like that to play for them so it is clearly not his fault.

 

[rymflaherty]

How the F was there no penalty on the Steelers there? Whatever....hopefully the Fins can get a TD here, give me a false sense of hope again...

 

[Cellar-Door]

What was Heyward Bay so fired up about?

He got pushed after his teammate took a cheap shot at a Dolphin.

 

[E5 Yaz]

What was Heyward Bay so fired up about?

He needed his airtime somehow

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Still four down territory

 

[Captaincoop]

The next time Pittsburgh is called for a penalty on some cheap extracurricular activity after the whistle, drink. Don't worry, you don't any beverage for this game.

 

[mauf]

How is that not a penalty against Pittsburgh?

What was Heyward Bay so fired up about?

Not sure what happened there, but Coop is right -- #45 is the guy who turned whatever it was from trash talk to something physical. Should've been 15 yards.

 

[shawnrbu]

What was Heyward Bay so fired up about?

Brian Daubach was in the pile wearing a Dolphins jersey.

 

[Clears Cleaver]

Loge that the Steelers are tough guys up 20-3. This team is soft.

 

[Curll]

The refs have been terrible. They refuse to penalize the Steelers

 

[mcaqua]

Miami can't handle the cold. Who could have seen that coming?

I love how this is a narrative. Hahaha.

Has nothing to do with the fact that they're missing 3/4 of their secondary on a shallow 53 man roster or the fact that they're missing their best offensive player (Pouncey) and are without their starting QB.

Oakland's performance was excused by injuries, but Miami just sucks. Got it.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Patriots led Miami 20-0 last week and then Miami made it interesting, for a minute or so.

 

[johnmd20]

Moore is done.

 

[mostman]

Dead.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Moore is dead. Holy shit.
