Game Balls, Game Goats & FU's.............vs Clowns.....

My only ***** is how the NFL tries to control games through the officials. That's as clear as can be. You've already ****** up the football product enough. **** just makes you look like the wwe. Stop it. It's not needed. You don't need to make some compelling story line every ******* season. Just play. Every ******* year you add more bullshit.

Just remember ladies and gentlemen a reviewed call is decided by Riveron, not the crew on the field. So these reviewed calls are not decided by game officials but by one sitting in the chair. His boss is Roger, not the owners, not the NFLPA.

The KC/OAK no call PI reviewed and overturned vs the LAC/DEN no call PI reviewed and upheld. The latter was 10x worse, yet upheld.

I'm almost always critical of CMT, but the team cleaned up most of the mistakes they made in the first meeting. Game ball to CMT.
 
A major FU to the ESPN Gameday douchebags. Every single one of those fucktards picked Cleveland. Because Kitchens wore the shirt and that says something.

Yo Moss, You got Mossed, whatever that stupid assed **** means...….that show has hit straight off the cliff, rock ******* bottom.

Major League **** YOU

Never pick against the Steelers at home. When they play a 2-8 team on the road hell yeah, but never at home.
 
The coaches did a very good job today. Hung around and let the defense take over the game. The pass call on third down to try to close the game was ridiculous. You are going to leave them with a minute and change and no timeouts and your defense has been dominant. You just can't gift them 35-40 more seconds.

I don't mind the decision to throw it there, because Duck had already admirably converted two 3rd-and-mediums earlier to move the chains on that same drive. The coaches did, however, have plenty of time at the 2-minute warning to stress the clock situation to the young man, and have him be aware that he should eat the ball and take the sack if the play wasn't there to be made.

But those situations dictated the throw. You are setting up the final end game in those two situations. In fact, if you do not convert you might need time on the other end for a field goal winning drive. The situation you are in on the one I'm talking about IS THE ENDGAME. If you run, you guarantee about 35 seconds less playtime to your opponent. That is roughly a third of what is left. They have no timeouts. Among many other issues I have with Tomlin that is near the top. He is a total gut coach. His gut instinct was to try to finish the game with a QB on his second professional start. If you asked 20 other coaches what they would do, 19 of them are running and the 20th with be fired soon. Tomlin is the ******** on the end of the blackjack table who draws 16 against a 5. PLAY THE BOOK. Same with kickoffs. Play the ****** book. NEVER BRING IT OUT.
 
Diontae Johnson had some rough moments yesterday. Running the wrong route and then not chasing the ball to tackle after the INT.

Running out of bounds after his first down instead of staying in bounds to milk the clock more.

This defense has really turned it up this season. We can't stop the run for **** but they've been very good about stopping drives when it counts and getting turnovers.

Probably his worse game. Not that it is a cause for alarm. But none the less...........
 
No question he had some rough spots, but still made a key grab on third down. Maybe could have gotten tackled in bounds, but he was right by the sideline.

He ran to the sideline after the catch. He could have easily stayed in the field of play. They will correct this kind of mistake with him. Its a coachable situation. I don't think he had a bad game more than he quit on one play and literally watched an INT instead of going for a tackle and made a bonehead decision to run out of bounds. We've seen worse things on the field by others.

I don't disagree, but I would like to point out that it is a young player with bodies all around him in a split second decision. The game has not slowed to the point where he thinks about what to do with the ball after the catch. He is just happy to catch the ball. Now contrast that with a 15 year head coach that has all the time he needs to make the right decision and run the ball. OR AT HE VERY LEAST if you are going to pass it is first read and then tuck, run and get down.
 
Duck! Duck! Duck!

Ref blaming? They gifted them 15 yards at the end of the game before Commercial Boy threw an INT to Haden. Or, the phantom false start they gave them. BS!

Injuries, eh? Our UDFA QB, rookie RB, practice squad WR and other 2nd and 3rd stringers shed no tears. GTFOH!

don't forget the touchback they blatantly missed even after review
 
I’ve been googling and can’t find it. Want to find fan video/footage for when Duck was introduced and came out the tunnel.
