Stoney's He-Man Steeler Haters NFL Playoff Thread ... No Yinzers allowed

Did Lacy get hurt? Where did he go in the second half?

Did Matthews get benched because he still can't figure out the read option?

People are not mentioning that if Sherman does not pick that pass early in the game, an insane pick, that Green Bay gets a few more points, and probably wins.

And New England showed everyone what you do with a lead.

 

When pointing out Packer failures, please include the stupid taunting penalty after the first interception. Taking it from first and goal at the four to first and then at the 19.

 

I have not read anywhere why Matthews wasn't in the game in the final minutes of regulation.

 

Tell us more, exmediahack.

 

Don't know why every media outlet has the score wrong.

Seattle 28, McCarthy 22 (ot)

Only exmediahack got it right.

 

Ya m

They said on broadcast that Matthews had knee injuy

 

That's strange. He usually plays hurt... Oh, wait... no he doesn't...

Major props to Sherman for staying in there.

 

When exactly, did they "choke?"
Saying they choked in either of the Super Bowl losses takes a lot away from the team they played. Both games NE was ahead late in the game and both times the Giants made the plays to win the game. Don't know how that qualifies as a choke.

 

I thought that was a BS call, especially after the non-call on Sherman after the first pick. Sherman ran over to Adams, bent down and yelled something, but wasn't flagged for taunting when he should have.
My buddy is a Packers' fan and with five minutes to go I texted him "Well, soon you're either gonna celebrate or go drive your car off a cliff."
After the loss, he posted a pic of him doing the dead-man's float in the bathtub. Pretty funny way to handle a defeat.

 

If nothing else, it will give the people who haven't let Spygate go a new excuse to dismiss everything the Patriots have accomplished.

 

I put something on the deflationgate thread about that.

 

One other thing about McCarthy that may have already been pointed out here, but I don't think has been emphasized enough.

Sherman's hurt. He looks like he's in a ton of pain. And yet, you don't at least try to throw at him? Stop and go routes, make him try to defend with that injury? If he's playing possum, or makes a great play, then more power to him. But he looked like he was barely surviving out there.

It was at least worth a try or two.
