The Mason Rudolph Steelers at the Still Complaining about SB XL Officiating

[bradshaw2ben]

Oh man there’s a whole lot of I can’t wait to see storylines. Enjoy.

[Texas Black & Gold]

Never give up on the Steelers.

Here We Go Steelers.

Funny the title...day after seahags won their sb, i went onto one of their websites, and legit #1! Topic was there getting screwed over in XL.

I ended up banned. Surprise, right?

[Steelperch]

I went to the game in Seattle in 2003, the year before we drafted Ben. Steelers fans were tailgating at 7 am, Seattle fans were nowhere to be found. Holmgrem complained after the game because his team false started 3 times due to Steelers fans being too loud. Fuck Seattle fans. They were pretty much non existent before the 2005 season anyway.

Holmgren was a douchebag. Haven't thought of that whiner in a long time.

I hope we get to see some good Pete Carroll faces today.

Hope he makes more bone headed calls like he did in the SB.

Same here I even brought up that Ben was blocked in back on Int Ret and crickets. I also said no officials helped on the ARE to Hines TD.

BTW - Awesome Title

[stillcajun]

so opening up w/ the run, run, pass. Great!

[PennyBacker]

When it seems they should go play action, Warren shows his stuff!

[Texas Steel]

Warren with the MF stiff-arm!

[Texas Black & Gold]

So far so good

[Texas Steel]

So far so good

Spoke too soon.

And our first NHALS mention!

[Texas Black & Gold]

NHALS mentioned

[stillcajun]

I swear the TE up the seam is there if they call it. PF could be a real weapon against them

[Stosh-67]

Time outs used to decide a play call.

The Standard is the Standard

[Jizz Mop]

Love the aggressiveness

Let’s go Mike! NHALS on the line!

[Stosh-67]

I swear the TE up the seam is there if they call it. PF could be a real weapon against them

Why?.
When the Standard is to go deep in these situations

[Texas Black & Gold]

Uncharacteristic. Should have pinned them deep.

Come on Defense

[Orangesteel]

It’s a nice play by Woolen who hasn’t been great this year.

Actually a great pass by Mason.

[jeemie]

Must make 4th down...so of course go deep.

Sigh...and they called a timeout for that one.

PS whoever this corner is covering Pickens...he is as good as advertised.

Even the catch Pickens made was almost a pick.

[CzechSteeler]

Why play 4th and 5 on opening drive?

[PennyBacker]

Agree with giving Mason a chance to keep his momentum from last week going on the 4th down attempt.

[jeemie]

I didn't mind the call to go for it.

I just wish we had options other than a shot down the sideline.

[stillcajun]

When the Standard is to go deep in these situations

My bad. I thought they would've tried to take an advantage against a weakness. What the hell was I thinking?

[jeemie]

And again if they are going to go for it..have that decision ...and the playcall...made on third down so we can a) go fast and b) not have to take timeout?

[CzechSteeler]

Run towards Bush?

[stillcajun]

Nice job D

[CzechSteeler]

Tomlin and his coaching staff? You know the answer.

[PennyBacker]

3 n out. Solid bullet from the D to kill the opponent's momentum.

[Steelperch]

Why play 4th and 5 on opening drive?

Thoughtfully aggressive, if you will
