Always thought Ironman was a decent poster. Then he started criticizing the OC in a game where they’ve scored 35 against arguably the best D in the NFL. Hell of a game. 

Pittsburgh has no answer for their outside speed though

No one ever thought you were a decent poster.  Hope this helps.

Also, call your timeouts BEFORE the 2 min warning. 

Lol...I didn’t want to be the one

Should have pooched the last kick-off.  

To me the difference in the game was the possesion passing defense.  Once the Steelers fell behind by 21, only a couple times did they have the ball and down 7.  Then and at other times the Jags defense was really tough to convert 3rd and 4th downs on, while on the otherhand the Jags offense looked like Brady and the Patriots as far as how easy it looked to complete short and medium passes for 1st downs.

Maybe should have kicked the FG?

I usually would say no, but they needed the points.

Jags played a playoff game that totaled 13 points and then played one with 87 points

Jags should all stand on 5 yard line

Shazier being gone hurt the defense badly.

Why?

When Pittsburgh recovers does clock start? If so then I do it.

No chance but if they line up 10 yards off and Boswell drills one right at them it could carom and maybe get a lucky bounce and chaos ...maybe. If they are way back out of way kicker can’t line drive them...if he did they’d have more time to recover as time expires. Moot regardless

Maybe on some plays but Jags ran all over them the first time. Steelers struggle against the run. Lost to terrible Bears for same reason.

Oh well. It’s over now.

It doesn’t matter anyway, the kicking team can’t advance a kickoff, unless the receiving team has possession and fumbles.

Ok, didn’t know rule exactly. Do wonder why kickoff teams trying onside doesn’t cram players towards middle which will make receiving team to do same at least some and then blast it right at them.

Or just kick it 5 yards like Boswell lol

Vikings would be a nice story to win it all. Keenum really going to cash in. I can’t believe how good he has been

Diggs holding and grabbing the DB’s hand and it’s DPI.

Diggs baits the official into calling defensive pass interference on #20, who it was just called on, by grabbing #20's wrist and holding it tight to his body, making it appear in real time that #20 was impeding him with a forearm bar.  And it worked giving the Vikes a FG!

Keenum? WTH?

That was really really bad and completely unecesary. Could be huge.
