Steelers at Bengals - AFC Wild Card Game

[Froob]

Joey Porter now an assistant coach was talking **** and Jones talked back and got a penalty. ********.
Pacman's vulgar response

Spoiler

 

[glm]

He pushed an INACTIVE Pitt player (who apparently/I suspect was taunting) out on the middle of the Field. Still wondering if the refs were trying oh-so hard to keep game under control why guys coming off the bench to join a fight aren't penalized.......oh I forgot: Squeelers, Dolts, Donkeys are football royalty.

Here's the penalty, it wasn't an inactive player, it was Joey freakin porter lmao and it looks like pacman didn't even touch him

What was the Steelers linebacker coach doing on the field there?

Ben will be fine & Manning is famously bad in cold weather. Williams could be back for Pitt as well. Frankly, I'd rather go to Denver & face Manning than play Pitt at home in the AFC Championship game (assuming they get their players back).

Meanwhile we get KC without Maclin. This a much better match-up than getting Cincy, potentially with Dalton. To an earlier point, the best case outcome of that game is that we move on with 3 more players on the IR.

What difference does it make anyway? Last year we got the Ravens in round 1. We won in 2003 playing Indy in the Divisional, then a 15 and 1 Pitt team on the road. We backed into the 2007 SB against an injured Chargers team & look what that got us. You can't be afraid to take on the best, if your going to win the Championship.

Stop overrating the Steelers. They nearly choked a 15-0 lead to the Bengals and were lucky to be given this game at the end. Fat Rapist should have easily had a few ints tonight as well. His clutch drive was due to the Bengals imploding. That fat turd hasn't been clutch in the postseason since the 2011 AFC title game against the Jets. The Steelers depend on the other team to out dumb them to win. Not going to happen anymore.

Does anyone know what pacman actually did to garner that second penalty?

He pushed the ref.

What the hell was he even doing on the field?

 

[TBR]

Penalty on Burfect was suspect and wtf was Porter doing on the field?

Are you referring to the second penalty? If so, I agree it was suspect. Especially for the situation. He touched the ref, I get it, but it was nothing major from what I saw.

BTW: The second one was on Pacman Jones, I believe. First one was Burfict, which was definitely a flag.

Should've been a 50 yard FG - unless Steelers try one more play

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Today had to be the worst display of playoff football I've seen. In many ways

 

[Banjo]

Yay, the Bungals are eliminated. YAY!!!!

Now go eliminate Denver, Steelers. Thanks

Should have been just a penalty on Porter if anything kicking them out of field goal range. Personally I wouldn't have called anything. Hate to see a game end that way.

 

[theone12]

I'm not convinced Denver has an easy draw facing the Steelers, their D has improved and no one is scared of Manning anymore.

That "improve D" coughed up 16 points to friggin AJ Mcarron (spelling?) in the 4th quarter. Again, stop overrating the Steelers.

 

[ThatllMoveTheChains!!!]

So here's the pacman err penalty

Wow such fragrant! I can totally understand them deciding a playoff game over that!

 

[PatriotReign]

This was just disgusting to watch. Fans throwing bottles at Ben as he was being carted off the field. Burfict is somehow dirtier than Bernard Pollard and T.J. Ward put together. Marvin Lewis should be fired for allowing the inmates to run the asylum.

Despite my growing distaste for the league as a whole, as a fan to see this contest end in such a manner leaves a sour taste.

 

[1960Pats]

Have you guys ever seen a game that had harder hitting than this one? I really can't recall too many, if any lool

Yes I have, and cleaner hits too. The 2001 Pats@Buffalo game.

 

[English Patriot]

So here's the pacman err penalty

Look at the joy in DeCastro's face when he sees the flag fly haha

 

[long distance]

moral: don't have stupid, undisciplined players, as they will find a way to lose

in my eyes this was not just simple stupidity
it was a criminal act by Vontaze Burfict
he should wear different stripes - black&white
(should be locked in a solitary - watching replays 24/7)

and there should be brain tests other than concussion protocol
before they allow people on the field

 

[reflexblue]

What was the Steelers linebacker coach doing on the field there?

roger wants you to stop questioning the integrity of the game, by questioning the compitance of the refs

 

[glm]

He pushed the ref.

Naw the ref stopped him from getting in Joey porter's face he didn't actually push him

 

[Hoodie]

Embarrassing game for both teams and the league.

I'd say both games were embarrassing for the league but for different reasons. Awful football.
