Now that it's over, what were you yelling on that last play?

NOOOOOOOO GET HIM......NOOOOOOOO


::him breaking free on the last run::

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHH
 
I was yelling....C'mon guys don't f-ck this up!!! Then, out of bounds! Ball game...let's go home!!! Good night bitches!!!
 
Get him... Hit him... Hit him... Now way.... THATS A FORWARD ****ING PASS.... No way.. ****in Brown has it? No way... no way.. NO ****ING WAY... WHAAAAAT THEEEEEE FUUUUUCK....

He was called out of bounds? yaaaaay :)
 
Im pretty sure I had multiple heart attacks while screaming "someone tackle him are you kidding me and of course, only to the dolphins."
 
this is how you lose it, are you serious. This is dolphins football.
 
As for the pass, don't look at the ball in the air, that is an optical illusion, look at where on the field the ball is when it is released (33 and a half) and where it is caught (33 and half, maybe another 6 inches) but it is REALLY close. Remember it isn't where Ben's feet are but where the ball is released. It is VERY close. I think if I had been doing the game and had to make the call from the two or three views I have seen, there wasn't enough evidence to overturn. If it had been ruled a forward lateral I wouldn't have been able to overturn that either. It was just VERY close IMHO.

I was thinking...well I've got my 6.5 wins...and there go my 6.5 wins...who do we play next?

Actually I was screaming at the defense for being so passive. Everybody on the field was incompetent. Nobody attacked at all. You're supposed to destroy a play like that at every intersection. There should be greater opportunity for the defense to score than the offense, like the Oklahoma/Oklahoma State game the other day. The Sooners played it properly and obliterated the play.

We didn't even have the Alabama excuse of special teams lugs. These were our regular defenders out there, each one lounging around as if the play didn't count. It was even more sickening every time I watched the replay. Grimes was passive. Jordan was passive. Jones stood around until it was too late. Then Clemons was stuck and at the mercy of Brown.

Frankly, we were fortunate not to surrender a touchdown on the last play of the first half also. That play ended at the Dolphin 40. If the Steelers had looked right there was a lateral available and that play could have scored.

Anybody who thinks a replay review would have saved the Dolphins via forward lateral is out of their mind. I've seen that theme in this thread several times. KTOWN is the only one who described the situation accurately. Roethlisberger leaned well forward and had his arm and hand fully extended. His body position is irrelevant. The ball traveled virtually parallel. There was an official standing right there on the sideline. On a play like that there is extreme benefit of a doubt to not make the call. The officials aren't going to nitpick inches. That was evident in the Music City Miracle play and several other examples. It's no different than when it's uncertain if a quarterback threw the ball from beyond the line of scrimmage. It has to be blatant.

Let's face it, we were the beneficiaries of an extreme lucky break. Brown essentially juked Clemons when it wasn't necessary and his momentum to the outside was just enough to carry his foot an inch out of bounds. Instead of a self inflicted joke loss that would have been replayed countless times over the decades, we can savor the victory and the 6.5 and pretend none of this ever happened.

BTW, we also scored 30+ points. That's enough for Christmas music by itself.
 
I missed the forward lateral because I was busy high fiving and celebrating our win.Then they got it closer to the end zone and I started freaking out.I experienced my first heart attack.My son yelled he stepped out of bounds and slowly my vision and sences came back.It is something I never want to experience again.
 
I had my wife and our 4 week old daughter on the couch with me. I first shouted "What a bunch of loopty do bull****", then when Rapeberger threw the forward pass I yelled "That's a god damn forward pass!". I kept repeating that last line until the game was off the screen.

Rapeberger !!!!! ha ha ha lol lol lol :lol:
