I doubt fans were cheering the injury, probably just the hit, which wasn't dirty at all. he led with his shoulder. It was maybe, maybe, a hair too late, but if the ball doesn't get tipped the hit is a good one.

I lived in PA for 16-years. I know Steelers fans and Eagles fans. The Steelers fans out at the sports bars in Philly and bumblefrick, CO where I watched the game lived up to their usual reputations. So don't call me ignorant.

As far as the Pats being whiny I've watched just about every Pats game for the last 15-years. I have never seen a team whine as much as the Steelers yesterday. That doesn't mean that the Pats never do but I have yet to see it with my own eyes.

Enjoy your season. Good luck against the Colts and the refs in the playoffs.

I have been a season ticket holder in foxboro since 92. The pats fans at games are by far the worst I have ever seen. I have lived in new england my whole life i have witnessed it first-hand. Brady in particular whines more than anybody. Every time a call goes against the pats there is a parade of whiners to the officials. Pat fans are even worse in this regard.

Are you two whining about who whines more?

Good point. Pretty pathetic. I will stop now.
