Steelers are playing the Titans? Someone please tell the Bengals that.

15 yard personal foul on Caleb Miller on the kickoff. Guy was down for like a minute and Miller decides to take a swing at him. What a tool.I am a Bengals fan.

Yeah for a team that is at Must iwn, not a smart play. I am glad Lewis was yelling at him.

Willie looking good so far.

Solid drive there for Parker and the Steelers. Roethlisberger hit a couple of short and medium range throws but Parker really delivered there. I'm guessing it was around 10 minutes TOP.

ETA: Actual time of possession was just over 8:30

1-10-CIN 23 (10:55) R.Johnson left guard to CIN 29 for 6 yards (J.Farrior).

2-4-CIN 29 (10:26) C.Palmer kneels to CIN 27 for -2 yards.

3-6-CIN 27 (10:06) C.Palmer pass incomplete short middle to C.Henry (J.Farrior).

WTF??

Carson thought Pitt was offsides...

He thought the play was going to be blown dead. There was a lot of motion on both lines and the whistle blew but no foul was called. Kinda weird. Not really sure why he gave up on a potential free play, though.

Palmer looking sharp on this drive. Bengals down to the Steelers 20 at the two minute warning.

 

[Snicks]

housh status?

CIN-T.Houshmandzadeh was injured during the play.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

He got up laughing and jogged off the field. CIN took a time out for the injury so he didn't even miss a play.

thks...can't believe i am not getting this game..f'n dallas/detroit on everywhere, oh and kc/jax

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Steelers defense picked up their game a bit and CIN picked up a couple of false starts. Graham FG is good.

That was a dumb play by Harrison.

i didnt know it was two hand tag out there

You can't pick up a guy and slam him down like that. This isn't WWE. If he lands a little farther up on his neck a tackle like that can result in permanent injury.

Was gonna reply, but I think I will take the high road. Have a nice life.

cincinnati is looking good after the half, steelers still a bit sluggish...

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Parker not finding much room to run so far. It's starting to rain now according to the announcers.

 

[CrossEyed]

Anthony Smith is a HITTER! Wow

 

[Snicks]

how hurt this time...

tia

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Anthony Smith is a HITTER! Wow

That kid is going to be seriously good. Smith and Taz at safety next year with Clark in the Mike Logan role..

 

[Tarkin]

So tired of Carson's high throws this year. It's getting old.

Nice punt, btw.

 

[Memphis Foundry]

Looked like he got the wind knocked out of him. He walked to the sideline without a limp and didn't seem to be favoring anything.

Didn't y'all see the punt cover tackle he made vs. Philly (?) in pre-season? After that hit I went in to adjust his ratings on Madden.

 

[Tarkin]

Just tackle him, Dexter. God, I hate this team.

 

[cj*]

wow

 

[The Hank]

these referees are horrendous, where's the taunting/false start after the TD/XP.....

 

[Tarkin]

wow

Interesting. I still hate this team though.

 

[CrossEyed]

This season hasn't been much fun, but knocking the Bengals out of the playoffs would definitely help to ease the pain.

 

[BigRed]

That is one of the WORST LAMEST "roughing the passer" calls I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. What a freaking joke that penalty is.

 

[The Hank]

you gotta be kidding me!

how in the world are you supposed to hit a QB when you hit him square in the stomach?

refs are horrendous

 

[TD32]

Steelers with ANOTHER cheapshot on Palmer. Classy Steelers.

 

[cj*]

That same call has been being made all year, no suprise when you drive them into the ground.

The worst roughing the passer call ever was the one against the Bengals vs. TB earlier this year. Easily.

Fishing is as lame as that call was.

Steelers with ANOTHER cheapshot on Palmer. Classy Steelers.

Nice to see Palmer miss only one play after getting nothing more than the wind knocked out of him. Farrior drilled him cleanly in the chest and stomach - not much else he can do in order to follow through with the tackle.

 

[blenderfrog]

Steelers with ANOTHER cheapshot on Palmer. Classy Steelers.

Maybe injuring Palmer with another cheap shot is their best strategy?

 

[The Hank]

this has to be the worst officiating game of recent history...

EVERY call is going CIN's way, roughing passer, fumble, pass interference....

cmon!

how would you know, you get coverage of the game in LA?

 

[Assani Fisher]

If they hadn't gotten the TD, would you have gone for it or kicked the FG? Imo a really really tough decision.

Nope, just came here because I saw that he was injured and there was a roughing call on nfl.com gamecenter. I was hoping to hear more details on what the play was.
