Wow a false start actually called.

RT moved early on every pass play. Even after they called the false start

Pressure gets the job done on that 3rd down.

Best start to a playoff game in a decade.

They shouldn’t have to blitz a LB and CB on the same side as a$40 million edge rusher to get pressure. They’ll get burned for a big play doing that eventually.

At least it drew the flag called to force 3rd and long.

Is this the first time we have had 2 healthy running backs in Tomlin playoffs since forever?

I believe we have had injured RBs since the Packers Super Bowl. Not even a good backup either versus 2 excellent RBs tonight!

Yep.

You can go downfield on the Texans on early downs.

We might have the best 1/2 punch at RB in the NFL.
