Pittsburgh Steelers @ Baltimore Ravens game thread

[B~Town]

Ever time I watch other games I realize more and more that our play calling really is vanilla nothing unpredictable we just looks stale . Seems we have had a lot of Luck winning so many games .

[crazycolt1]

It is truly comical how a "few" folk actually think that a player can "AT GAME SPEED" ...   "SAFELY POSITION THEIR HELMET SO THE PREY CAN RECEIVE THE SOFTEST BLOW POSSIBLE"    Really..   ?   

 

It will be "touch" or "flag" ball sooner than later if this comical crap keeps getting called.

 

It just doesn't work that way.   D players are taught to HIT.      not comfort.  

 

but whatever.....

Quit the whine please

[jvan1973]

Quit the whine please

So only your opinion matters? It is weak that hit was flagged. NFL films was built on videos of hits like that. Its football for crying out loud

So the one game you have watched this season tells you that? Just curious?

[oldunclemark]

Its hard to listen to Jim Nance and Phil Simms..

...Maybe CBS will suspend one of them before the second half

They are taught to hit a new way, or be flagged. just like DB's are being taught to cover downfield a new way or be flagged. Your enemy isd the competition committee and refs, not me. genius.

It's not just my opinion. It is the rules and still you want to cry about it. It's old news that the NFL and the owners are going to protect the QB.

[John Dee]

you have NEVER played ANY organized "competitive" football have you?

 

IF you had you would know EXACTLY what I am talking about.

Rule states as long as his eyes can read jersey numbers, the forehead part of the helmet can be used.  But if your eyes are to the ground and see grass, and top of helmet hits 1st, take your personal foul penalty and move on.  He lowered his head/eyes.  He must not be keeping up on the NFL Heads Up program. Nor you.

I watched every game so far this season . Like there 4 receivers reverse you never know what they are doing .

We couldn't be that lucky? Especially Simms.

[Yoshinator]

Heyward Bey holding, dude is useless

The Colts have only played one game so we really haven't seen anything but them playing catch up.

I realize it's the rule It's a weak rule.

[John Dee]

Don't hit HIGH...    Don't hit LOW....

 

Upshaw drilled the QB in the chest and got called for spearing?  

 

Where is his head supposed to go?     Have any of you EVER worn a uni and helmet?   It is just not as easy of some of you make it out to be.     Oh well

 

 

F  it whatever.

[MTC]

Distractions they say....

 

 

Steve Smith, even though 35, still has the speed and great route running. 

[B~Town]

The Colts have only played one game so we really haven't seen anything but them playing catch up.

Nothing new saw plenty of that last season . We have more talent than most these teams we should have no problem moving the ball getting receivers open in space

[MTC]

Troy Polamalu isn't the same anymore. Just doesn't make an impact on defense. 

[MTC]

Phil Simms just said Joe Flacco is the best QB sneaker there is....

 

 

uhm. yeah. 

[John Dee]

Put me on ignore chief...

 

OK

Quit the whine please

[crazycolt1]

Don't hit HIGH...    Don't hit LOW....

F  it whatever.

I understand that but crying about it non stop isn't going to do anything. And yes I have played football before in Jr. and H.S..

[MTC]

Let's move on please. 

 

Put me on ignore chief...

 

OK

 

 

I understand that but crying about it non stop isn't going to do anything. And yes I have played football before in Jr. and H.S..

[John Dee]

This is the issue ...  "what is the rule" ...  

 

it changes from week to week.. .    from crew to crew... 

 

It is just unwatchable. 

 

I realize it's the rule It's a weak rule.

[TKnight24]

Can't stand Phil Simms as a commentator in Madden or Real Life

[ColtsBlueFL]

Competition committee. write them.  old players lawyering up and suing drove the NFL to this so enjoy the new National Flag League.

[John Dee]

 this clown jumped into my debate with ANOTHER poster...   

 

you can put me on ignore also...

Let's move on please. 

[MTC]

Can't stand Phil Simms as a commentator in Madden or Real Life

 

I would mute it, but I like Jim Nantz.

[John Dee]

Oh Lord.....

[MTC]

 this clown jumped into my debate with ANOTHER poster...

I understand but I don't want to see this argument. 

[crazycolt1]

It is just unwatchable. 

If it's unwatchable to you then why watch it and then whine about it? How about a comment on some of the other plays?

[MTC]

Le'Von Bell is a special back. Can make plays even with a weak offensive line. 

[John Dee]

I understand but I don't want to see this argument. 

Tell HIM not me...

[TKnight24]

I would mute it, but I like Jim Nantz.

Exactly. Let Nantz call the game himself, he's doing that now anyway. No one pays attention to Phil

[B~Town]

Been a pretty good game so far

[TKnight24]

Horrible tackling will always lead to big gains

[jvan1973]

Nice block ben

[DrColtsFan]

Great play

[TKnight24]

Where's CJ Mosely?

[John Dee]

Obvious long time Colt D observer...

Exactly who I was thinking of as I was typing smh

[jvan1973]

Brown is gonna get killed on plays like that to the short side inside the ten
