I've been flipping through the games, how have the refs been determining this game?

and it was a stupid play call to boot. 3&3 and we're down 2 scores. Smart play is run it, if we dont get it take the FG.

why so we can miss our third chipshot?

They haven't determined anything. Steelers have no right winning this game. Terrible play calling, critical drops, 2 missed chip shot missed FGs and a blocked punt. They basically needed to play perfect the rest of the year and this is what they bring? Oh and more injuries on the O line......

I wasn't referring to this game, just meant in general

Wow. Couldn't believe what I was seeing when they took that timeout. Almost anything is better than taking the timeout there. The timeout is CLEARLY more valuable than the 5 yard penalty in that situation.

That was the dumbest 2pt conversion play Ive ever seen but 2pts is 2 pts.

Suisham with awful onside kick

Really bad coaching on both sides of the ball

Weird that you would bring it up unless there was some sort of reason in this game.

Was the turnover the other drive a Porter INT or fumble recovery? ESPN is calling it an INT, Yahoo is calling it a Brown fumble.

INT...shoestring grab. Literally not more than half an inch off the turf when he grabbed it.

has to be int, no need to review it otherwise

Why not have King turn and run into his own end zone?
DA RAIDERS

Because it's a bunch of really old dudes trying to keep up with elite athletes. The line judge in the raider game can barely run

It's not a horrible idea...but what if he doesn't make it before guys twice as fast as him get to him?

Thats what I thought but I was hoping to get lucky since Im going against Brown in both my leagues.

Is it just me or have we lost to the Raidas like 4 years in a row? Im sure its at least 2, and Id be surprised if its not 3 of the last 4.

MFL has it as a Brown fumble lost but the stats on NFL.com has Ben with 2 INT's and Brown with no fumbles. Once stats get reviewed I'm looking forward to getting the single point back from Brown and the one to Gio Bernard.

He's got a 15-yard head start and he's athletic as hell. He could have bled almost all of the clock.

I think there was just too much time left with 28 seconds. Maybe if there's 10 seconds on the clock you do that. That way you avoid the possibility of a blocked punt too.

Glad someone else posted this. I was behind a bit on the DVR, just saw this games conclusion. Big Ben has to know that down two scores and under 2 minutes left, having 3 timeouts in your pocket is super important since you will likely get ball back since opponent almost has to run the ball 3 times. Maybe on 4th down I would possibly take that TO, but on 2nd down to use that TO when it literally cost you 40 seconds for an end of game chance is absurd.
Very weird that fans like me and you guys realize this, at the moment it happens, no MMQB'ing here, while head coaches and QB's waste TO's all the time.
