I'm pretty sure Palmer always wears the knee brace on his left (forward) leg like Manning for exactly this reason. Probably helped keep it from being worse than it would have been.

Also, Houshmandzadeh is going to get punk'd if he doesn't shut up and play. I doubt any of those players and fans forget him shining his cleats with the yellow towel. He's the opposite of Chad Johnson. Where Johnson is funny, Houshmanzadeh just seems like a punk.

Joe, Housh and CJ are both from the old Erickson Beaver's "Thug N Gun." CJ's just more charming in his thug'n. It's the grill.

Come on Joe, trash is part of being a pro.

You're right, the scuffle involving Houshmanzadeh had nothing to do with the two Steelers DB's.

Henry Doubtful

 

[DoctorDetroit]

First playoff game in 16 years and that happens. I'm rooting for the Bagels for sure now.

Oh I know Dr. P. It's just that Johnson can do it and it's funny. Houshmandzadeh does it and he gets so mad he loses his focus. J

I just polished off the rest of the Jack Daniels that Noodlefish brought me from Duty Free. In hindsight, I probably should have moderated a little.

 

[Tecumseh]

"prior to the ball being snapped, AGAIN..."

 

[E Street Brat]

Now Henry. It must be the Steelers game plan to simply injury all the Bengals offensive players so they can beat us.

What number are ya?

85

I can't wait to see your post after you score.

CJ pulls out a laptop in the endzone.....................................

 

[Brintey Spears]

LOL at ref saying:"False start before the snap AGAIN."

 

[fruity pebbles]

You can tell by the lineman's reaction that he didn't do it on purpose and it wasn't a dirty hit.

[Courtjester]

I think that was extremely questionable at best...

I mean even if he does get blocked into him, it just seems that there was wrenching that certainly was bush league.

With all the comments here I had to back up and watch it again.He was falling and hit him, really only reaching to grab his leg. His shoulder hit him at an odd ankle as Palmer was following through. Unfortunate injury - but I saw nothing dirty.

And judging by his reaction afterwards (being a former Bengal) it sure didn't look like he meant to do it.

 

[TME]

Bengals D looks good. Everyone is flying to the ball. Good team D. Great pursuit.

For sure. No way was that a dirty hit on Palmer. J

I got Vashon Old Stock. Growler is $5 refill for 1/2 gallon. BURP.

Looked like he was falling down and into the leg. Agree, not on purpose.

 

[TheRegulator]

Didn't Simms say he was watching Henry on the play but didn't see him go down? That's all he did was fall down!

Me too - with the emphasis on AGAIN.

 

[TME]

Puh-lease. The reaction was because that fat slug thought there was a wienerschnitzle behind Palmer's knee. But realized there was not one. That's what that "darn" reaction was for.

As much as I hate the Stillers, i think it was accidental... too bad...

Close....He said "Prior to the snap again, false start...."

 

[Tecumseh]

Kitna looks good this drive. Maybe all is not lost.

 

[DoctorDetroit]

For sure. No way was that a dirty hit on Palmer. J

A true competitor never likes to see anything like that happen. He knew it was just a weird play and felt bad about it. Plus it was Carson Palmer. If it would have been Mike McMahon for instance, the offense would have received a 15 yard celebration penalty.

 

[Sinrman]

Kitna's going to pick up right where Palmer left off...

 

[gman8343]

Kitna!!! Go Kitna!!!

Not only that but he (1) knew he was hurt and (2) he felt bad it was his hit.

rudolf johnson running hard like always. corey who?

I'm waiting for my rolex in the mail.

Kitna roxor

 

[TME]

Kinta just cleaned Foote's clock...apparently.

 

[Statorama]

If Kitna doesn't start sliding...warm up QB #3

 

[MSULions]

Was kind of hoping to see some new blood in the playoffs this year, but NE/Pitt/Indy/Denver = same old same old

at everyone giving this game to the Steelers. Kitna is a good qb and would probably supplant half the starters in this league if he were traded.

 

[Brewtown]

For sure. No way was that a dirty hit on Palmer. J

While I wouldn't say it was dirty. I do not think he was blocked into him. I watched the TIVOed replay many times. The German was blocked to the ground and he kept moving towards Plamer. Very unfortunate. Kitna is auditioning for Matt Millen.

 

[jeff_eaglz]

Kitna!!! Go Kitna!!!

He better slide...

 

[Football Jones]

I hate to see Palmer & Henry injured. I'm not a fan of either team, but as a football fan, I want to see the best players on the field. Tough breaks for CIN.

The Bengals do seem to still have a 3-0 lead.

Rudi, Rudi, Rudi...

 

[TenTimes]

people forgot kitna was good before palmer came along. actually I think most any QB who can throw an accurate pass would be good in this offense

 

[DoctorDetroit]

GO BAGELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[scratcher]

TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW BOUT THAT RUNNING GAME STILLERS?

 

[MSULions]

yep...this game is over all right

 

[flapgreen]

Look at Kitna go.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Nothing like being picked apart by Jon Kitna in the playoffs.

Fixed. Bwahahaha, Squealers!
