Game Thread: Wild Card Steelers vs Bengals

[Diamondeye]

Well, we had a stadium full of people cheering and throwing sh1t at a star player while being carted off the field. It made the whole Michael Irvin/Philadelphia thing in 1999 seem mild in comparison.

This game was a classic, unfortunately for too many wrong reasons.

It featured disgraceful conduct not only from players, but fans as well.

Welcome to Cincy/Pittsburgh

Yep, two very comparable franchises.

 

[Judge Fudge]

I need more people like you, who can tell me about the madness going on in Whistler Village tonight.

But what i know is that Some Syrian refugee got sprayed with Pepper Spary. Chief of Vancouver PD has wayed in and so has Prime Minster Pretty

That drive, from Vancouver to Whistler is amazing. Beautiful part of the world that you live in.

 

[Judge Fudge]

Ferry ride that costs you about 60$ too?

I've done it. Espically in the winter. I have family that lives near alberta. Cranbook to Fernie to Sparwood (south east boarder line) in the winter is just breathtaking

The Steelers have been to four Superbowls, winning two, since the Bengals last won a playoff game.

Yeah, but at the expense of how many unsuspecting twenty-year old coeds?

I am seriously jealous.

Try not to take that for granted.

Never do

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Never do

It's late over here. Enjoy your night, my friend.

 

[Diamondeye]

According to the law, none.

Innocent until proven guilty, pal.

 

[cwerph]

Uhm, no it isn't. You can hit runners helmet to helmet. As I just said, that was the explanation given by the NFL ref on the broadcast... But I'm sure you know the rules better than a NFL ref.

RULE 12 PLAYER CONDUCT

Article 8 (unnecessary roughness)

g) If a player uses any part of his helmet (including
the top/crown and forehead/”hairline” parts) or
facemask to butt, spear, or ram an opponent violently
or unnecessarily.

Penalty: For unnecessary roughness: Loss of 15 yards.
The player may be disqualified if the action is
judged by the
official(s) to be flagrant.

If Burfict doesn't hit Brown it was an incomplete pass, Steelers might not even get into FG range. If Jones doesn't lose his head and commit that stupid PF during the injury timeout the Steelers might not make the 49 yard field goal. you can what if everything but as I said they can only blame themselves.

Don't disagree with the bold, but none of that happens with out Hill fumbling.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

No, No
We turned that into a straight up rival of 90's ECW right there. Fans were throwing chairs into the ring, Players diving off of balconies, receivers making crazy off the top rope catches, officials throwing out the rule book, fans chanting for blood, and the only thing missing was Joey Styles going "OH MY GAWD!"

 

[fknhippie]

Disappointed, didn't get to see AC's mom or girlfriend in the stands.

Denver's defense is going to cripple Ben permanently....
