Steelers vs. Tites Game Day Thread 12/21/08

[randy06]

Well i think they might eclipse that 300 yard barrier

[SteelCityMan786]

celebrating early...what a JERK.

Which is why the Defense should have kicked his damn ass.

[Steelcitygal87]

That was a nice play call on 4th and inches

yeah that was a great play call. Ike was there, just couldnt make the tackle.

[ben7]

i hope Ryan Clark "Wes's him" on a slant route in soontime

[43Hitman]

If anything..that little stunt at the end will PISS OFF OUR DEFENSE!

[JackHammer]

That was a nice play call on 4th and inches

We had it though and Ike missed.

[GridironWarrior]

a 17-14 shootout?

Time for the offense to be at its best. defense always helps them, now is the other way around

Considering how these teams normally play this is a shootout.

[randy06]

We are so spoiled we are used to our stellar defense i dont even like seeing games with alot of offense lol

[Steelcitygal87]

Only down by three . We had a good drive last time, we can do it again!! LETS GO STEELERS!!:tt03:

[GridironWarrior]

Hopefully Big Snack swallows him next time.

[SteelCityMan786]

Only down by three . We had a good drive last time, we can do it again!! LETS GO STEELERS!!:tt03:

I STILL BELIEVE!!!

[SteelCurtain7]

DISMEMBER THE TITANS!!!!!!!!!!!

[randy06]

We should have ran there

[steelwall]

shinoli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[randy06]

K we ned our defense to get a turnover here

[tony hipchest]

i think the titans will be the 1st team to get 300 yds on us before the 3rd quarter is even over.

that int was a killer. :banging:

[JackHammer]

Way to miss a wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open Moore. Didn't even look his way.

[Crushzilla]

They start with White.

Fisher's trying to DESTROY the clock now.

[GridironWarrior]

Washington didn't fight for position.

[millwalldavey]

Dunno why youd call that on 3rd and 2.

[Frankie3521]

If Ben would just protect the ball he could be so damn good..I probably wouldnt be as upset if he didn't cause us a easy touchdown at the goal line and a INT in their territory earlier..

[steelwall]

stop the run guys

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

okay...ben mad a bad play....lets hear how bad he is and how the steelers are not a Superbowl Team

[steelwall]

[randy06]

"Get that sh*t outta here!"

[Polamalu Princess]

[Steel_Bus_24]

[SteelCityMan786]

HEY DEFENSE!!!! PLAY TODAY RIGHT NOW DAMN IT!!!!

[Dodt]

[JackHammer]

It's time to get that turnover.

[XxKnightxX]

blown coverage....OH man im getting frustrated, 3 turnovers makes it very hard to win games.

[eafratitpm3]

Need to hold them to a FG here

[millwalldavey]

okay...ben mad a bad play....lets hear how bad he is and how the steelers are not a Superbowl Team

Ben runs the plays sent in. They should have sent in a run on thrird and short.

[fansince'76]

Damn it - PI.

Edit - never mind.

[ben7]

need a pick

[GridironWarrior]

How come their D never gets called for Penalties?

[shevdog]

Steelers D, calm down... Let's not lose the game after winning it all year!

[Pittsburghfan]

No PI? Incidental contact?

[SteelCityMan786]

Good No Call.

[steelwall]

come on!!!!!

[Steeldude]

will the offense ever help out the defense? the defense can't do everything week in and week out.

[Crushzilla]

God, Fisher looks like such a clown in those glasses...

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

thats offensive pass interferrance as well

[SteelCityMan786]

No PI? Incidental contact?

If it's ON ANYONE it's on Tennessee.

[steelwall]

Fisher is an idiot u cant challenge that

[GridironWarrior]

Fg or turnover, please.

[millwalldavey]

PICK IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[randy06]

We just got a break

[The Duke]

will the offense ever help out the defense? the defense can't do everything week in and week out.

exactly. the one day the D can't do it all the offense still can't score

STOP them!!

[ben7]

The only unit that has been impressive is the WR's

[randy06]

Fisher is an idiot u cant challenge that

yes you can

[Crushzilla]

Hmm. We really need to hold them to a FG here.

[Dodt]

durn it .

[SteelCityMan786]

Fisher is an idiot u cant challenge that

Yes you can. But the odds of them overturning it sucks.

[GridironWarrior]

Is the D tired?

[Crushzilla]

Simms, shut the hell up.

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

they went for it 3 times why not go for it now

[tony hipchest]

will the offense ever help out the defense? the defense can't do everything week in and week out.i have strong faith the offense will step up in the 4th and bail out the defense for a change.

[steelwall]

yes you can


No not incidental contact.

[ben7]

omg not on us!

[Frankie3521]

DUMBASSES

[Steelcitygal87]

what????????????????????????? what the heck

[Polamalu Princess]

No way...OMG!

[shevdog]

Stupid pentalty, extremely stupid!

[SteelCityMan786]

HEY REFS STAY OFF OF TENNESSEE'S PAYROLL DAMN IT!!!

[fansince'76]

Stupid, stupid penalty. :banging:

[eafratitpm3]

WTF D, boy when they suck they really do it up good

[steelwall]

what the f'n hell is going on here???

[Frankie3521]

Damn it you piece of shit....

[Crushzilla]

WHAT!?!

And no unsportsmanlike call on Johnson using a prop after the TD?

[millwalldavey]

HOW CAN YOU CALL THAT BEFORE A PLAY HAS EVEN BEGUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[shevdog]

HOLD them!

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

anyone know what happened there on that penalyt

[randy06]

Not happy with our defensive effort

[GridironWarrior]

What happened?

[Polamalu Princess]

D - you had better step it up here and not let them get 7 points. If they score here our D gave it to them.

[Crushzilla]

Wow, I would like an explanation for that.

What was that? A f'n make up call for the PI?

[tony hipchest]

stuff the twinkie squeezer!

[Frankie3521]

D - you had better step it up here and not let them get 7 points. If they score here our D gave it to them.

The profanityfilterprofanityfilterprofanityfilterprofa nityfiltering field goal D unit gave it to them, idiots

[JackHammer]

I cannot for the life of me figure out why the profanityfilterprofanityfilterprofanityfilterprofa nityfilter you'd be trying to simulate the count on a 4th down field goal. How greedy can you be?

[randy06]

No not incidental contact.

He was challenging the tip

[GridironWarrior]

What was the penalty for?

[Pittsburghfan]

Some Steeler player with a 6 in his number was yelling hut hut hike trying to get TEN to mess up their snap time.

[XxKnightxX]

aaand now a unsportsmanlike conduct, wow. Well 4th Quarter, we tend to own this one, lets step it up.

[Steel_Bus_24]

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They did not come with their heads ready to play.....Any time they get any sort of respect they lay turds like this

At least fffing hit hard

[SteelCityMan786]

He was challenging the tip

That's what I said you can challenge.

[steelwall]

we had best pull together now on D

[steelwall]

He was challenging the tip

Oh my bad, listening to the game on the radio.

[tony hipchest]

anyone know what happened there on that penalytmost likely calling out the cadence. = dumb rule

[Steelcitygal87]

crap:banging:

[The Duke]

Dammit, the fatass scores

[Frankie3521]

Okay, Ben, Its time to get your head out of your ass and get it done.

[randy06]

Wow, defense where you guys at today?

[GridironWarrior]

I hope the O has another comeback in them. And what is wrong with the D?

[steelwall]

urggggggggggggggggggg

[eafratitpm3]

This is embarassing for our #1 D

[Texasteel]

Well 4th qu. lets see if Ben can do it again.

[randy06]

Ahhhhhhh

[steelwall]

most likely calling out the cadence. = dumb rule


Thats what it was

[madsteelerfan51]

We still have 4th quarter, Our D better start acting like that Number 1 defense

[The Duke]

I hope the O has another comeback in them. And what is wrong with the D?

No defense can be perfect

They have been amazing for 15 weeks already. Now the offense has to bail them out

[randy06]

Well 4th qu. lets see if Ben can do it again.

We need our defense to get a stop

[millwalldavey]

For once the O is carrying this game...

[Crushzilla]

The Titans have 279 yards...

[GridironWarrior]

Well, O hope you have some juice left.

[Steel_Bus_24]

Looks like they were looking at the Power Rankings too much this week instead of getting ready to play a damm football game.


Errors across the board

[randy06]

Lets see how much grit this team has

[XxKnightxX]

Wow that was some good blocking on that. But besides that, the penalty, the blown coverage on 4th, bens interception, the Defense being in the field most of the time, and the supposed cakewalk game that some people thought and maybe the way the steelers are thinking. Im still believing and rooting on strong, but if the Steelers lose this game it wont be bad, it will ground these guys up and slap them in the ass, and I hope we see these guys in the playoffs to bea tthe shit out of them.

[GridironWarrior]

I never would have thought the Titans would come close to 300 yards.

[Ricco Suavez]

We have made costly mistakes on both sides today. Time to show our mettle.

[Steelcitygal87]

Our defense has played outstanding football all season, up to this point. This is a good offensive line they are facing, sometimes it is not we do wrong, but what the other team does right. They are knocking our defensive players off the ball.

[tony hipchest]

Anybody know what the unsportsman penalty was all about?
i believe yelling "BRICK" before the snap of an attempt can even draw a flag, just like a defender yelling "HUT< HUT< HIKE"

[BozMan]

SI / ESPN mag cover jinx??? gah

[Ricco Suavez]

So far the Titans have played mistake free, and Collins has looked good.

[ben7]

lets get 7!

[eafratitpm3]

I would say normally we have them right where we want them, but with this pathetic Defensive I would say effort but I have yet to see any effort (go ahead and bash me now), we better go hurry up. Actually as bad as the D is playing we're better off having a long sustaining drive and try an onside kick. I can't believe we're letting this piece of shit old ass QB pick us apart

[Polamalu Princess]

I am still very hopeful. Let's face it - so many games this year have been down right dirty games. We do the best under pressure and now we are under grave pressure. How many 4th quarter games have we won? We can still pull it off. Go Steelers!!!!!

[Steelcitygal87]

COME ON OFFENSE, you can do it!! :tt03:

[ben7]

`for no gain`` has become way to common this game

[Dodt]

nice catch hines.

[Polamalu Princess]

Let's go O!!!!!

[SteelCityMan786]

Wow that was some good blocking on that. But besides that, the penalty, the blown coverage on 4th, bens interception, the Defense being in the field most of the time, and the supposed cakewalk game that some people thought and maybe the way the steelers are thinking. Im still believing and rooting on strong, but if the Steelers lose this game it wont be bad, it will ground these guys up and slap them in the ass, and I hope we see these guys in the playoffs to bea tthe shit out of them.

I'd much rather see the Steelers score 14 UNANSWERED again, and beat the Titans now, and then beat Cleveland. and not have to see the Titans again.

[Frankie3521]

C'mon get it moving guys

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

I never would have thought the Titans would come close to 300 yards.

Well.... Remember... they are playing a team that is not worthy of being called a superbowl team.... and the Titans are obviously better because right now they are in first place in the afc.....:coffee:

[tony hipchest]

I never would have thought the Titans would come close to 300 yards.
me neither. they will probably end with 350-375.

around 289 right now.

[GridironWarrior]

Moore should be in for the rest of 4th.

[Crushzilla]

In the midst of all this...

Can I just comment on how pathetic the Cardinals have been since they won the division.

They have totally packed it in and settled to coast into the playoffs...

44-0 NE over ARI

[Frankie3521]

OKAY, THE RUN DOESNT WORK, STOP TRYING

[SteelCityMan786]

I want to shoot our O-Line.

[randy06]

We need to move tha chains

[XxKnightxX]

WHAT WAS THAT??? the play doesnt work

[Steelcitygal87]

COME ON OFFENSE! get this first down!

[BlastFurnace]

That delayed draw has absolutely got to go.

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

Turnovers and stupid penalties will kill a team any day.... Lets get it together guys

[The Duke]

No holes for willie today :banging:

[GridironWarrior]

I hate that draw.

[ben7]

we are done

[Crushzilla]

Oh man, did Ben just run into the sack?

[Frankie3521]

Okay, this team can suck my nutsack.

[randy06]

and that may be all she wrote we are in need of points

[shevdog]

I can't take this... ARG!

[GridironWarrior]

Sigh....

[steelwall]

oh my lord

[The Duke]

3rd fumble....

[eafratitpm3]

This is Fn embarassing

[Crushzilla]

Ok. Big stop.

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

we need to create a turnover right now

[Polamalu Princess]

we are done

No - we are not done - still looks like we have over 11 minutes...

[Frankie3521]

Ben has not only been a negative, the defense has played poorly.

[BlastFurnace]

No Haynsworth or Bosch...and they are still beating out O'line like a drum

[GridironWarrior]

They need a turnover or pick 6.

[SteelCityMan786]

No - we are not done - still looks like we have over 11 minutes...

Exactly. KEEP YA DAMN HEADS UP!!!

[ben7]

well one thing to remember .... WE HAVE A FIRST ROUND BYE!

[43Hitman]

No - we are not done - still looks like we have over 11 minutes...

Agreed! :tt02:

[Texasteel]

Okay, this team can suck my nutsack.

I knew this was coming.

[GridironWarrior]

What makes this game disheartening is that the D has let them down as well. I'm used to O doing it but not the D.

[tony hipchest]

Okay, this team can suck my nutsack.as im sure can any random dude off the street.

[BIGBENFASTWILLIE]

No - we are not done - still looks like we have over 11 minutes...


Ya....but we all know the steelers are not capable of comming from behind in the 4th quarter:coffee::coffee:

[BlastFurnace]

Okay, this team can suck my nutsack.

Relax Dude.

[eafratitpm3]

I hate to say it but Tennessee came to play and win, our boys took this #1 Defense for granted. Maybe the ESPN Magazine got their heads to big

[Steel_Bus_24]

This game didn't have the same feel to it as the Balt and dallas game, mainly because of how normal our D has looked.

[Steelcitygal87]

Ben has not only been a negative, the defense has played poorly.

Oh, it can't possibly be that the Titans have a VERY GOOD offensive line?

[tony hipchest]

nobody bumped the slumpbuster thread today!

:banging:

[BlastFurnace]

I hate to say it but Tennessee came to play and win, our boys took this #1 Defense for granted. Maybe the ESPN Magazine got their heads to big

Well...atleast the SI Jinx is out of the way.

[Pittsburghfan]

as im sure can any random dude off the street.

:toofunny:

Don't worry, even if we do lose this game (not saying we will) We still have a playoff berth and 1st round bye.

[Steel_Bus_24]

OMG a holding on the other team

[Crushzilla]

One big stuff here and this is an interesting game again.

[SteelerFan091472]

Come on D!!! 3 and out!!! :tt02:

[JEFF4i]

We can make this up..EASILY.

Just have to get our heads in the game, hopefully for the last 10.

[Steeldude]

that draw play is all on arians. it hasn't worked all day or for the year, but he still keeps calling it. if your O-line can't perform a draw then you don't call it.

and yes, the O-line is to blame also, but call plays within the abilities of your players.

[Crushzilla]

First holding call on a Steelers' opponent in weeks!!

:tt02:

[GridironWarrior]

They actually called holding!!!!!!!!!!

[BlastFurnace]

:toofunny:

Don't worry, even if we do lose this game (not saying we will) We still have a playoff berth and 1st round bye.

That's the way I see it as well.

[Steelcitygal87]

come on d!! :tt03::tt03:

[steelwall]

ok 3rd-19 stop em!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SteelCityMan786]

QUIT PLAYING LIKE SWISS CHEESE D!

[eafratitpm3]

If our D plays like this after the 2nd round we will be saying bye

[Crushzilla]

No, Troy... HARDER! HIT HIM HARDER!

[Pittsburghfan]

First holding call on a Steelers' opponent in weeks!!

:tt02:

Since first November 3rd.

Troy just rocked Chris Johnson!

[DoctorCAD]

303 yards

[BlastFurnace]

We need a score on this drive. Got to cut it down to 1 score.

[steelwall]

ok ok come on O

[eafratitpm3]

How come our #1 D gives up a shit load of yards on the Draw play?

[Ricco Suavez]

The play today is just like the games where we lost earlier in the season. Key turnovers and a team that makes few mistakes. I have to give credit to this Titan team. That said i believe we can win here in the playoffs. I believe if we get some spark we can still win today. But i think the fans did not give our opponent enough respect this week, maybe even the Steelers also.

[43Hitman]

that draw play is all on arians. it hasn't worked all day or for the year, but he still keeps calling it. if your O-line can't perform a draw then you don't call it.

and yes, the O-line is to blame also, but call plays within the abilities of your players.

Completely agree. It's on everyone on the O.

[shevdog]

Hold your breath...

[BozMan]

Why does the D play worse on 3rd and long than 3rd and short?

[BlastFurnace]

7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7....

[madsteelerfan51]

We can do this, its our turn now

[steelwall]

what no flag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Crushzilla]

Oh, it can't possibly be that the Titans have a VERY GOOD offensive line?

Right. It has nothing to do with the Titans being the number one seed in the AFC.

Take away the three turnovers and this is the Steelers game.

[fansince'76]

the guests really pack into this place when we're losing

Bandwagoners is more like it. Nothing new.

[Crushzilla]

Tunch just flipped out because a Steeler was bulldogged long after the punt.

[steelwall]

Lets go boys shut this crowd up

[Steelcitygal87]

How come our #1 D gives up a shit load of yards on the Draw play?

The Titans have a VERY GOOD offensive line They are blowing our guys off the ball, that is why.

[XxKnightxX]

The play today is just like the games where we lost earlier in the season. Key turnovers and a team that makes few mistakes. I have to give credit to this Titan team. That said i believe we can win here in the playoffs. I believe if we get some spark we can still win today. But i think the fans did not give our opponent enough respect this week, maybe even the Steelers also.

Agreed, i never put my guard down on these guys and thats what happens when you dont take your games seriously. Were still in it though We need a TD right away.

[SteelCityMan786]

We can do this, its our turn now

KEEP ON BELIEVEIN STEELERS FANS!!!

[tony hipchest]

[Ricco Suavez]

just smile and wave boys just smile and wave

[randy06]

We have a shot
