If Mike Tomlin were even a marginally competent coach, Steelers would have won that game in Denver.
It's beyond me why they played zone against Manning and surrendered the short passes when he clearly can't accurately throw the long ball anymore. I'd call it coaching malpractice.
Why wasn't Petersen running with two hands on the ball in that play? Shouldn't he have been coached to do so?Pittsburgh was playing without its RB1/RB2/WR1 and others, yet would have won had his RB3 not fumbled when the team was already in field goal range late in the game. Calling that coaching malpractice is ridiculous.

Butler needs to do a better job at limiting Sanders, as another 113 yard game isn't going to cut it. Brian Howell/Herald notes that Sanders definitely won his matchup over Butler in November, and it would be hard to disagree. I don't think that's necessarily indicative of Butler coming out on the wrong end of a rematch, but it's certainly worth noting.
With Thomas having 115+ yds in 2/3 recent games against NE, Logan Ryan will once again, have his hands full as well. He fared well last time through extensive film study, although one may think there's reason to believe that Ryan will have a hard time containing him to only 36 yards for the second time in a row.
i don't know about you, but i don't want to be drunk for this game. too important to me, too much fun. i can get drunk whenever i want. i certainly don't want to be only half-understanding the game, not thinking clearly, and only remembering parts of it. don't waste this day for boozeWhat time will you guys start drinking Sunday....2 AM? 10 AM?

Jason Cole is saying the betting line is bad for the Pats because the stupid people (not his exact words) are putting money on the Pats and the smart people are betting on the Broncos. The Broncos have a lot of metrics in their favor.
How is this possible?

I submit that going with a zone defense conceding the only passes Manning can still make at this stage of his career is not a "reasonable exercise of sound judgment" and thus malpractice.
