Week 15 Gameday Thread: Steelers @ 49ers 12/19/11

[Raw Steel]

Anyone think Wallace is dogging it a little? On the first INT, he just stopped instead of chasing down the Niner who made the pick and on that last throw, he really didn't make an effort.

Turnover time. Let's get a play here d

Arians is a genius I tell ya. Awesome game plan so far.
Throw it deep and often with a one legged qb.

[TRH]

that was pathetic. Can't we play on a 'national stage' anymore? Everytime we do, we suck. Ever since the '09 super bowl.

[finesward]

Yeah it was the play call, not.the execution that was the problem

And when everyone's expecting the run like on that second down play, i knew it, you knew it, everyone knew it......run it. Stuffed.

Clark will get a fine. He left his feet

Yep, Our O-line is also at risk from trying to protect a 50% hurt Ben, instead of concentrating on PLAYIN THE GAME.
And a 50% Ben, actually make that even worse, is NOT better than a healthy Batch.
SIT BEN, play BATCH and lets be done with it.
