Official NFL playoff thread

[SSSnail]

OK, something is off. All the losses this weekend has been by teams that play just horrendous football. I want to watch ONE good fucking football game this week, damn it!

 

[Arkaign]

lol great job by the Broncos at every level right now. I think this is the best they've looked. Of course Pittsburgh is really crap, but that doesn't take anything away really.

 

[crashtestdummy]

I thought the same thing at first; but since he caught the ball, and made a football move to advance the ball he becomes a runner and then all is fair, no?

Yup. The helmet to helmet is ok as long as the player can see you. Not sure about how I feel about that one.

As a side note, I wonder if the NFL should get rid of the illegal contact penalty (which was introduced in 1978 to open things up) to balance out how much they've boosted the passing game.

Some brilliant play calling, excellent execution.

Those bombs will open up run. Pitt not stacking the box so much.

It's bye week where the wildcards play, so everyone that loses is cr@ppy, as well as the ones that win. 😛

 

[KLin]

Wow Thomas failed the broncos big time with that drop.

Wild card won the super bowl last year.

If Big Ben can't do shits here, he needs to GTFO of the field (game) before he burns his defense out.

 

[Anonemous]

Somebody check on Aaron Rodgers, make sure he hasn't been abducted and stuffed into Tebow's uniform.

hmmm they disguised Brady Quinn as Tebow... hmmm

 

[Miramonti]

Yep, who would think tebow's passing would open up the run. Even God just spit beer out his nose.

 

[Miramonti]

Another prevent defense fail...3 rushers and roth is carving them up.

 

[goog40]

Great snap.

 

[silverpig]

Geez, just when they get into FG range, THAT happens.

 

[TheVrolok]

Steelers continue beating themselves.

 

[SSSnail]

LOL @ Squeelers implosion and not even before the half. Usually, they'd wait at least until the second half.

 

[Barfo]

This game is so gay...

 

[silverpig]

Yep, who would think tebow's passing would open up the run. Even God just spit beer out his nose.

It was all a ruse

@TheTweetOfGod

Fools! Didst thou really believe my false prophecy, meant only to separate the faithful from the heretics? None shall vanquish my #Tebow!

 

[Cyco]

hmmm they disguised Brady Quinn as Tebow... hmmm

Ummm....no. Quinn's not that good.

 

[Jeffg010]

Man this is bad I though they would have had Polamalu on Tebow all day long. I'm not sure what they trying to do on defense no pressure and Polamalu bite on a few of these play calls.

All I can hope for is they make some adjustments in the second half. What the Steelers are doing now is fucking sucking.

 

[zinfamous]

I wish they'd have Greg Gumbel and Dierdorf calling this game. I can't stand Nantz/Simms.

yeah, I think they're the worst in all of sports.

Nantz should stick to his wheel house of pussy sports: figure skating and golf, and Simms is just too stupid and vanilla to add anything of real value to the broadcast.

 

[zinfamous]

hypothetically, denver D can win this game now. just sayin, lol.

wow, yeah. t'would be really cool to see the Denver Tebow's roll on the Stellers.

 

[brianmanahan]

wow, yeah. t'would be really cool to see the Denver Tebow's roll on the Stellers.

t'would in deed. im betting the farm on a tebow win.

 

[goog40]

Obvious backwards pass.

 

[TheVrolok]

Wow. Can't argue with Denver's play, they're playing well, but the Steelers are playing absolutely terribly.. Giving Denver nearly every opportunity possible.
