James Harrison SB INT. What if Fitzgerald tackled him from out of bounds at the 1?

Dude just wanted to play and I saw no evidence that the players starting ahead of him were better. Tomlin I think just wanted to move on and play the younger guys but as usual was a poor judge of talent on defense.
I agree. I didn't like how it went down. How he left. Where he went. But you can't fault a guy for wanting to play.
 
Maybe back then he would've called the QB sneak. ;)



NO Sir, Bruce would have called a pitch to one side where RB gets it 8yards deep and everyone KNOWS to which side, OH and don't forget all this without a FULLBACK..!!!!!!! NOT a prayer in hell you could out guess the"Bruce"...........****

Fitz running out or not. The refs apparently didn't see it or a flag would have been thrown. And, I don't think that was a reviewable play back then so discussing a major "what if" is pointless. He scored, legally, and we ended up winning the game.
 
My electricity went out 10 minutes before the game started. I had to haul *** to a nearby sports bar here in Frisco and watched the first half with tons of Steeler hating cowboy fans who were rooting for the Cards. Harrison's TD was a great STFU right before the half. I got home just before the start of the 3rd qtr. Great game.
 
Great play, but whether Arizona got a TD or a FG, or Harrison got tackled, it was to early to say that won the game, so much would've changed depending on the out come of that play.

The greatest play of that game was the throw/catch with 35 seconds to win it. We know for a fact that, that play put us in the lead for good.
 
Fitzgerald ran out of bounds - on his own, without being blocked out of bounds - at about the 45. :16 mark

He did not enter the field of play until he got to the 4.

he was OOB for 41 yards.
 
Watched the highlights & forgot all about the safety in the endzone after a 20 yard pick up with 3 minutes and change to go...Commentator said the Steelers would have won right there. Seen too many games where we didn't close it out. Not certain we could have as Parker was getting stuffed pretty good

Funny, while that play wiped out a 20 yeard gain, if it doesn't happen Fitz NEVER goes 64 yards and the BIG BEN & HOLMES play never happens...

Amazing

So,....what you're saying is and what we are asking is........ If she, would you still be intimate....... (HHHahahhaaaaa)





I hear yaz and we can always guess and by-gosh. Fact is NO ONE can know the outcome off of one play with the rest of the game to play. The Roethlisberger to stonieO is about the last play possible to know the outcome of game and there was a little time left on the clock.
