6-0

I believe other receivers were blocking in front of him when he caught it. I don't really know the rule, but sometimes it gets called, sometimes it doesn't.

Thanks for this, you’re probably right.
 
When we had that 3/12 and Ben threw the int, I said to myself, we may have just saved our chances. I would not have wanted to see us up by only 6 with the Titans having about 2 1/2 minutes and two timeouts in four-down desperation. I figured if we could keep them out of endzone, they’d take the FG and we’d have a chance in OT. Nothing I hate worse that ferrying to stop a good team desperate and with enough time on the clock. That’s today’s NFL many times: last team with ball wins.
 
This was the type of road win that points to the Steelers being as good as their 6-0 record suggests.

Titans also got some lucky breaks there with some tipped balls caught etc. Still one helluva football team, they don't give up. And that OL of theirs gave our front 7 fits.

Something I'd like to know though. That OPI on the Steelers when Chase caught it right at the sticks, the ref never said who it was on. Looking at the replay, I didn't see anybody close to an OPI. What the hell was that about?

6-0 baby. :flag:

In fairness, the Steelers got lucky a couple times today with balls that were tipped and not picked off. I think there were two or three.

Agree on the OPI. Didn't see it.

6-0 is a great place to be.

I'm not sure how much I blame Ben for taking that shot in the end zone, as you would think your alleged #1 WR would be able to beat a LB down the middle of the field, yet #55 ran stride for stride with Juju.

There were at least two other occasions where Juju could not separate from him.

I like Juju. He's a good kid and solid possession receiver, but he's slow.

They definitely need to let someone else overpay him next year.

Interesting how this “slow” WR has the 2 longest TD catches in team history-both were 97 yards

Not mention he also has 96 yard return for TD.

But he’s slow? Hines Ward wasn’t as fast as JuJu—-good thing you weren’t GM when it came to his contract

Thank you for that. I think I watched it at least 10 times for good measure.
 
there is another view of that play from the backfield....you can see him rush up to fill the hole and make the play

Good question. Tomlin said bumps and bruises in his post-game PC and Spillane came back in at end of game (I believe I heard that right somewhere), so I think he's okay.
 
Reports coming out are calling it the hit heard around the NFL. He lost a yard on that hit. :whoo:

6-0 does NOT suck. Wish I could be at work tomorrow to rub it in the haters’ faces. Guess I can do that on Tuesday!

In all seriousness- does anyone here know a legit **** fan? I know of none.

They're all gonna know about Spillane! We should think of a nickname for him.

I've been calling him Mickey.

How about "Freight Train"?
