looks like we got a good one.

This game is always a hell of a lot of fun to watch. I love the Steelers, especially when they play the Jags.

I guess i'm rooting for the steelers, since i think houston should have beaten them last week (and should have beaten indi this week)

No matter the final score of this game, I'm gonna subtract that INT TD. Not because it didn't happen, but because I wish it didn't happen. Without that careless mistake it would 10-7.

Weird short story :

When I was younger is when the Jaguars were first in the league. I fell in love with Mark Brunell and loved the Jags. I liked them even more then the Steelers back then. When he left and went to Washington, my heart left J-Ville too. Though Brunell only had moderate success there, my love for the Skins still remains. Brunell went to New Orleans this year, for whatever reason, my feelings for him didn't leave Washington.

I can't believe we have Holmes back there again. He fumbled so many times. He does nothing. We had Rossum last year, he did nothing, so I guess we went back to Holmes. We haven't had a decent returner since Randle El.

If they were equally as bad, then it was the worst-refereed game in the history of football. The dude put his arm on Collins.

you're sure of it? We aren't that good? compared to who, the 08 Patriots? The titans don't blow teams out, they never have. we have a great defense to go with a good running game and effective passing game. we have leaders and youth on this team. we're in the top 5 in the afc in points forced and top 2 in points allowed. we have one of the best red zone percentages in the nfl. we lead the league in interceptions and up there in sacks.
I realize we're not a powerhouse football team like everyone's been used to with the colts and pats the past few years, and if you're saying we're not there, then i agree, but don't try to take away credit from a team who's played great football all year long so far.
also, i'd like to see what teams in the AFC you think are far superior to the titans. right now i don't see any team we can't beat in this conference.

If they were equally as bad, then it was the worst-refereed game in the history of football. The dude put his arm on Collins.

I'll be the first one to agree with you that Vince Young being out is helping them, and they are a good football team, but luck was on the Titan's side today.

one call on the end of the drive where they scored their only field goal was for unnecessary roughness. chris hope and derrick mason got into it with their hands at eacothers face. mason got two shots in, the first and last one, hope only retaliated (which should still be a penalty on him) yet only hope got called and gave them 15 extra yards when they're struggling to move the ball.
The one on the touchdown drive was the unnecessary roughness on the out of bounds play. to me that was nearly as bad of a call, finnegan had the guy in his arms and pushed him down, it wasn't a hard play, it wasn't a dirty play, it was a cheap call. that lead to our d yelling at eacother, getting distracted and allowing a touchdown.
did they catch a break during their final touchdown drive? yes, but that play happened around the 50 yard line, it's not like it was an easy touchdown after that. we marched down the field and scored on a team that's held us in check all day. fuck anyone who thinks thats a cheap or lucky win, that's football, things happen. and if those same things didn't happen to them one or even two of those scores wouldn't even be on the board for the ravens.

I didn't watch the game even though it was on in my area, the baseball game was 1a with the Skins. But it sounds like it was a chippy game that the refs got extremely uptight about.

And saying it was a lucky win isn't bad, it's like you are insulted. A win is a win is a win.

I should be one to talk though, Redskins have a great win today and I'm still harping on DeSean Jackson's TD being allowed. Clearly a block in the back. Thank god for the interwebz!

Watch though when he gets blocked in the back...if he tackles DeSean Jackson after that block, he's Neo. He's 2 yards past him laterally when he gets hit, and even without the hit, might have only slowed him at best...and since nobody else came close, he was probably gone anyway

They could have called it...but, it didn't really affect the play

The Skins were taking control of their division rival in their house and my baseball team was playing for the LCS, trust me, I paced my apartment for a good two hours, and cheered so hard at one point I had to sit down.

dropped passes made me wake up my dorm hall, but if you ask me the main reason we lost that game is because we had brian williams benched for that james guy. how could we not see immediately that williams is a far better corner? they wouldnt have had those 300 yards and 20 points in the first half if we had an experienced corner on that passing game. and then we wouldnt have to worry about playing catchup against a prevent defense with undependable wideouts.

theguy77
10/05/08, 08:38 PM
and anyone can blame injuries, like the 4 in our defense and the 3 on our offensive line, but thats part of any season, so a loss is a loss.

we really shouldnt have gone for it on that early 4th & 7 either, we were well within scobee's range. that could have cut the pressure down for the end of the game too -- its a lot easier to make it to field goal range than to the endzone cuase garrard can just run that distance. thats the best way he can pick apart a prevent defense IMO, its how we win games in the end usually. but the end zone is just too far.

I pretty much agree. Just at that stage, it seemed ticky tacky. Same with the taunting on Jax. Didnt see anything, so he must have said something. I'd rather just let them play. These guys taunt after every single tackle with their excessive celebrations so to penalize them seems trivial.

both taunting flags were deserved. it's very well known that you can't do anything to show somebody up, and both flags came after somebody did just that.

the roughing the passer call was bullshit though. there was no time to stop, he hit him just as he released the ball.

but every game has a call or two that is questionable, so it's pointless to bitch about them. it's a part of the game, and the good teams can overcome crap calls. i thought they did a great job officiating last night though. the game was brutal, and they pretty much let them play. only the one call was questionable to me, but i understand why it was called.
