Really, for Denver to come back, one thing must happen--someone must force a turnover that either a defender actually scores on, or sets up field position so close to the Steelers end zone that they score quick.

This takes pressure off of the offense, plus puts quick points on the board, which they will need since the Steelers will likely eat up a lot of clock.

It seems like all of the running plays are very slow developing

 

[Metal Panda]

case in point. Third down after the third down. almost thought I was watching the dolphins secondary

Whew! Pitt getting all the breaks today.

 

[Metal Panda]

too bad nobody was there to pick it up. that could have been a momentum shifter. too close to the sideline though.

 

[SCall13]

Parker is putting that ball on the ground alot today.

 

[Metal Panda]

COME ON.

Eight of freaking NINE on 3rd down?

that is insane.

 

[SCall13]

8 out of 9 on 3rd downs. Unbelievable.

 

[Metal Panda]

This almost seems scripted.

Play 1--running play for a few yards

play 2--pass play for a few yards leaving third and 5-6

play 3--pass that picks up the first down

 

[Metal Panda]

Let me guess, a pass for a first down here?

nope...finally wrong!

 

[d-day]

punt

 

[SCall13]

I think they should go for it.

 

[Metal Panda]

I bet Bill goes for it.

 

[SCall13]

I'm a little surprised they didn't go for it.

Chris Gardocki looks like he doesn't know it isn't 1984, judging by his hair.
