NFL Divisional Round Thread: Another Step on the March to the Eagles-Titans Super Bowl

Seahawks, playing with a ravaged defense, came up short. True. I'll still take the past several years.

Uh oh, Steelers.

 

If Rogers ran straight after the catch he’s got a 1st down.

 

Jags have already proven they can beat the Steelers. I think they can beat the Patriots. They'll beat the shit out of Brady, ala the Texans last year and the Broncos two years ago. It'll be up to the coaching staff not to let Bortles Bortle it away, if they get that chance.

 

Don't think you're right, but a Super Bowl where the QBs were Bortles and Nick Foles would sure be interesting and possibly hilarious.

 

Is Bell already holding out?

 

This game is over.
Repeat of previous meeting. Run over (with some added play-action passes) the defense and bottle up the O.
14-0 lead. Steelers offense is dead.

 

They're laughing their asses off in New England right now.

 

Agreed. I'm not even surprised. I've been saying for weeks this is a terrible matchup for the Steelers and they are proving it. Roethlisberger is already forcing balls into coverage and the defense looks horrible.

My only reason for hope is maybe part of this is rust and they can shake it off at some point, but rallying from 14-points down against this defense does not seem realistic.

 

Jags and Patriots are the only visitors with winning records at Heinz Field in the Roethlisberger era.

 

Dumb-fucking play call!!!!
Why would NOt QB sneak for 8 inches?!?!?

 

Mike Tomlin is a HOF coach, he’ll make HOF adjustments. He’s just baiting Jax at this point, toying with them all the time waiting for the refs to bail them out.
