I'm not big on playing any cards but I do feel that the Steelers are being targeted because they are so outspoken about the rule changes. I think the real reason that they're targeted is because they actually are making sense when speaking against the rules, the parameters, the league being hypocritical, etc.
J.Harrison hits a QB in chest last week and gets 25K. Ben gets face ripped off, no flag. Heath gets helmet to helmet and knocked out, no flag.....Not being a whiner here, but something just doesn't seem right? Unreal imho.
Yes. You are.
uh..............pretty sure that was a major shot to the head. illegal.
If you don't understand the NFL rule book, just say so. No need to veil it.
No offense, but you need to know the rules a little more before u throw stones. ANY hit to a QB's helmet is a penalty, so a hand that smacks the facemask and breaks a nose falls under that category. And u can't hit a qb in helmet, u can't hit in chest with helmet, you can't hit low on the legs, might as well start kicking them in the groin area i guess.
It seems someone doesn't know the rules and it's not scrumptrulescentDirectly from the rule book:
Be condescending, or be wrong. don't be both at once.
Hah, icing on the cake tonight. Thank you VandyT, wherever you are...Be condescending, or be wrong. don't be both at once.
I am a Vikings fan--not a Pitt fan at all, and I agree. Harrison in particular is being targeted and all it does is call attention to how arbitrary and inconsistent the refereeing and the rules are. Kudos to Ben: say what you like about him, but he is tough and he is a leader on the field.
"Superstars calls" happens in every major sport, just perks of being poster boys... Unless you are a poster boy for illegal hits like Harrison, than your calls comes with fines.
Ben and Joe just arent intimidating enough to get the call. They cant even wipe the hair from in front of their eyes.
I turned the game on a few minutes late, so I didn't see the play.However, I heard that Ben was hit in the head. Contact to the head of a QB is illegal (if the QB is in the pocket). So, was Ben in the pocket when he got hit in the head? If so, how can you argue that it was a legal hit?
OK-just saw the video.1) Ben was clearly in the pocket.
H8ers gonna H8.
Just re-read those superbowl threads. They speak for themselves. No fish in those waters.In fact, Harrison was a beneficiary of one of those giveaways. He ran down the sideline near the end of the first half with that TD return, Arrington gets pushed in the back by Woodley and Fitzgerald gets "bumped" by the players on the Steeler sideline as he was closing in on Harrison.Don't get me started on the gifts they were given with Seattle.The point is Steeler fans need to take off the diaper because they were given two Superbowls and fans of a lot of other teams would love to be in that position.
Why stop at two?Go for the whole six-pack.Actually, why not just say the Steelers haven't legitimately won a game without officiating assistance since the 1960s.Come on. I know it's in you. Go for it!
The hit on Miller is textbook. Massaqua was "going low" when Harrison hit him. Drew a penalty and a fine. This hit was the same, but harder.Personally, I don't think either should be fined, but I've said a lot of the hits that have been levied shouldn't have been.
Quit whining about other peoples opinions.Wah, someone on the internets said something, about somebody, that I don't agree with, make it stop, Wah.
I don't know about that. It looks pretty tastey.
Yeah, there were tons of Steelers players standing on the Cardinals sidelines.Just re-read those superbowl threads. They speak for themselves.

Lets not let facts get in the way...or the fact that Fitzgerald intentionally ran out of bounds and did not reestablish in the playing field to attempt to make the play, which I believe is a penalty but did not draw a flag.Yeah, there were tons of Steelers players standing on the Cardinals sidelines.Just re-read those superbowl threads.

Ngata is so strong that the force from hitting BB somewhere other than the head caused his nose to explode.How on earth did get his nose broken?
I was going to go with telekinesis, but that works too.Ngata is so strong that the force from hitting BB somewhere other than the head caused his nose to explode.
Ben's nose sticks out pretty far from his head?
Gotta use better bait then that.
