i disagree. that kickoff looked like it did not hit the guy, stayed inbounds, and they got the ball right where it hit, so it was the right outcome... not the right call (hit the player, then went out of bounds), but the right outcome.

Actually a kickoff is a live ball for everyone, it is not like a punt. It should have been Cards ball.



Steelers just got screwed out of the TD Holmes caught. Yes, he fumbled, after the ball was across the goal line.

wait, really? as in, if a kickoff is NOT touched by ANYONE, and the kicking team touches it first, it's their ball?

wow, i did not know that at all. i thought the receiving team had to touch it for it to be live. if you're right, then, yeah, should have been cardinal ball.

learn something new every day.... still sucks the cardinals won.... go steelers!

These refs in this AFC game are terrible. They keep letting Ben get hit late. They aren't consistent on the PI calls. Terrible officiating.

The Steelers offense has gone into full on choke mode.

Ward is out, Ben is hurt from all the roughing, and they are playing the Ravens. Did you expect it to be high scoring?

And b-more is healthy? They are playing 2nd and 3rd string players in there???


Both teams are getting calling breaks, and both teams are very beat up...

Cute comment, maybe you could throw in a few more smileys for effect?

Injuries aren't causing your players to commit dumb penalties, drop perfect passes and throw passes behind open receivers. The Steelers are suffering a breakdown of discipline right now and if it continues they will hand this game to Baltimore on a silver platter.

I love defensive games. You must not be a football fan, just an offense fan.

Looks like the Steelers defense wants to get in on the choke job too.

Broncos completed their choke job a long time ago at 8-8.

What do the Broncos have to do with this? We're talking about this game here.

Try to keep up, Chucky boy.

Ouch, big hit by Clark, too bad it was helmet to helmet.

Both Clark and McGahee down. Eerily reminiscent of the Steve Atwater/Robert Brooks/Randy Hilliard hit in SB32.

Edit: After seeing it in slow motion, it wasn't as blatant as I thought it was.

It wasn't pretty cause bruce Aryians has no balls what so ever but The D came through. I Doubt Joe Flacco will ever forget about Lamar Woodley anytime soon. Same as Willis McGhaee will ever forget about Ryan Clark


GO Steelers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
