The Bus must be the happiest man on the planet right now. All I could think of was Ernest Byner.

That was an awful moment...I've been a Bettis fan for years and it would have been a real shame if the last play of his Hall of Fame-worthy career was a fumble return for a TD that knocked his team out of the playoffs.
How about Roethlisberger's tackle on that play? Pretty nice work! Heck, DBs and LBs don't make tackles like that!

Great game for the Steelers, Colts looked rusty(especially the O-line?) Carolina looked pretty good too while beating my sentimental pick for the NFC superbowl contender, "Da Bears".

The question I have is: 3rd and 2, on your own 28 and the left hash, 2 TO's left, creeping in your kicker's range, yet you throw it? Why not try to get an easy 1st, or maybe move an inch closer and center the ball?
BTW, that was the worst field goal attempt I have ever seen at the NFL level.

good game to prove the worth of putting pressure on a QB, eh?

good game to prove the worth of putting pressure on a QB, eh? had the colts blocked it, pressure would not have mattered. i am sure glad though I am not a nfl coach. the nfl game you cannot really do much vs pressure. in the college or h.s game, it would have been all over. the steelers woudl bring that pressure run the middle screen against them and it is over baby.

Do you think coaches will think twice about resting everybody during the last two weeks of the season? They were rusty.
