OT: Steelers want to keep the mud - New England Patriots Forums

I thought this was interesting. Apparently, most of the Steelers think that playing in three inches of mud is less likely to cause injury than playing on field turf.

Tell that to Ricky Williams.

I don't think the turf had anything to do with getting stepped on.

I hope the Colts go to Pitt for a playoff game and have to play on that sloppy field. Polian will have a fit

Now, that would be a game for the ages! Don't see it happening given the current records of each.

I hear the MLS is looking for another team, Steelers. Maybe you can go join them if you don't like scoring.

About the only way it could happen would be if Indy was pushed to a wild card, by losing to Jax and another. If they just lose to Jax, they would tied with each having defeated the other. Indy's 3 loses would be in conference, while Jax would only have 2 conference losses. But Indy would only have 1 division loss, while Jax would have 2.

Yea it would give that crybaby Polian a reason to lay off the Pats, but on second thought He would still blame the Patriots.

Which won't happen. Indy is going to win but I'm still hoping for a loss. Regardless they'll still be #2 in the playoffs even if they did lose on Sunday.

Call me old fashion, but I believe football should be played on grass and outdoors.

And if at the end of the game your uniform is still clean you better be a kicker or a QB. And if you are a QB with a clean uniform you owe your o-line a steak dinner.
