I said, run it -- don't throw it.   I knew he was going to throw a pick. 

I want my props for being brilliant.

Pgh D does it -- and how funny is it to see a lineman go 100 yards?  They usually run out of gas.

That is a game-breaker.  It is a 14-point swing.

If that was a spectacular pick, then I would give the defense props.   He threw the damn ball to him.  He never should have thrown the ball.   Run it and if you can't get in then kick it.    Tie the game, you get the ball back after the half.     

Even I, a stupid girl no less, knows that.

It was more subtle than you think.  Pgh faked a blitz which made W throw quickly.  The Lineman was reading W and jumped the route.

That was brilliant -- and risky -- defense.

His receiver was in triple coverage, it hit him in the chest.   That ball never should have been thrown.   Fake blitz or not, you take the sack and kick the ball.   

Never should have thrown that ball.   Rookie mistake that probably cost them the game.

He was not in triple coverage -- the outside receivers were.  The subbed a linebacker for the middle field and had him take the hot receiver since they knew that Warner would panic.

Look back at your TIVO and watch the secondary.

But you are right about Warner reverting to his post-SB ways of throwing ill=advised passes.

ps: Springsteen was OK tonight.

Who sounds worse:

A) John Madden

B) Bruce Springsteen

I feel bad for Madden, he doesn't look well.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Warner tried to force it in -- I watched it several times.   I don't see that as panic at all, just a really bad judgement call.  His receiver was surrounded by Steelers.   The ball never should have been thrown.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Gayest half-time show ever.  :whatever:

They need bands that pump up the crowd. AC/DC would be awesome.

Looks like there's already talk of AC/DC next year:

http://www.cbssports.com/spin/story/11113390

Can you imagine starting off with Back in Black, next up You Shook Me All Night Long, then For Those About to Rock, and to finish it off, THE song I think about when I think of hard-hitting football, Thunderstruck?

Watch this video in it's entirety and tell me you don't think it's an awesome theme song for football:

BTW, Prothro was AWESOME! ....until his injury.

They should pull one over the NFL

Open the  act with "What do you do for money, Honey" followed by "Dirty Deeds done dirt cheap" :-)

Huh?  It is a pretty good game -- Pgh hasn't left contact by any means.

Hey dudes...we have wings, pizza coming around later, and all sorts of other dips and snacks.

I'm sending a paper off now and then I have to tidy up the house a bit in prep for a couple peeps trailing in here and there.

Enjoy!


Oh and I will be rooting for the Cards. I have to after living in Phoenix..just seems right! Especially since this is a shocker after all those years of crap for a team! Go Cards!

Also for the Cards. They were terrible for so many years here and in Phoenix. I hope they win it today.

Yay, the Cards just got another touchdown, now within 6 points. That would be incredible.  :-)

I would trade anyone from any team to get Larry Fitzgerald.  Even if he has been "covered," it's been a mistake to wait this long to throw the ball to him.

My wife made me a bowl of the most AWWWWWWEEESOME wings ever.  I don't know what she put in the sauce, but it was killer.  Just the right amount of spice, with a barbecue twist.  And she made us some home-made cheesesteaks.  I am so stuffed.   :-) Would that every man be so lucky to have a lady like mine.   :cheersmate:
