mery christmas steelers... epic collapse by Ray Ray and the Crows...


#1 seed on a silver platter.

And the Steelers pushed that silver platter away and said NO THANKS, we'll take the wild card.

well he's got 3 more years at least.

He's going to reneg in the off-season.

that's possible, right?


either way, the Niners should, and keep him happy.

er well...Hainnsworth...er, fuck...no.

keep him cheap and get 3 great years out of him.

:p

lol, holdout after just his rookie year? That'd be pretty sad... I expect the 49ers to lock him up after his 2nd full season

Power outages? Hell, the 49ers will do anything to win a game. :p

I said all along that this would be a very difficult game for the Steelers. I'm disappointed in the outcome, but not surprised. They're not at full strength with some of their O-line out on IR, Harrison out for the game, Bennie R on a gimp leg...and a gimp arm. (after tonight, 21 TDs, 14 INT's for the season)

I was expecting a better showing from the Steelers...but didn't get it.

You conveniently ignore the fact that the 49ers best WR was out as well as the best LB in football.

We all know Ben lost that game because he was not 100%. In hindsight they should have never played him but I understand why they did it. They felt that he was their best chance to win. And I will say that kicker for 49ers won that game for them every one of his punts were deep.

"You conveniently ignore the fact that the 49ers best WR was out as well as the best LB in football."

Yup James Harrison was sitting at home.

Ahem, what do you guys who were making the ludicrous claim of the AFC being "strong" have to say now?

I would go with the NFC to have the best chance of the next SB but remember, any given Sunday, like a mediocre KC team beating GB, who saw that coming???

As a Ravens fan, I'm very happy with last night's result.

However, my team continues to be a complete enigma. No idea which team is going to show up on any given day. I guess the good news is we don't seem to lose to really good teams (Chargers are a possible exception, based on how they finish out), just bad/mediocre ones. Those teams don't make the playoffs, haha.

Ugh, so confused.

The NFC's top seed just lost to Kansas City. AFC may be murky, but so is the NFC.

Any team can beat another team on any given Sunday. However, the NFC is the stronger conference at least at the top. I'd put the Packers and Saints ahead of everyone else and the Niners up there as well.

Someone here said yesterday that the AFC was stronger and that the Pats, Steelers, Ravens, and Texans were all better than the Packers. That is obviously not correct. The Pats would get steamrolled by either the Packers or Saints, the Ravens choke in big games, and the Texans are as good as one and done in the playoffs. That leaves the Steelers and while they may put up a fight, the fact that they barely escaped the Colts doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.

I think the game would have been different if played in Pitt. Playing at home v. cross country flight, has been important for some of the best teams this year. Both the Ravens and Niners struggled with it too.

I don't consider wins against the 49ers and Steelers (twice) as a definition of "choking in big games."

Losing against easily-beatable opponents is a different story.
