Man, I wish that Jerome Bettis jackass that we had a here a few months ago had the balls to show his face again.

John Elway had the drive and now Tebow asks "What took so long?". lmao

Fast forward to the backwards lateral.. why is this play any different?

The game should have never gone to OT. Denver would have been up 23-6 or 30-6 shortly after that had they been awarded the ball.

...and I think that all of us Ravens fans know how much it motivates the Steelers when they know the refs are helping them. They thrive off of it, and when they are allowed to hold and facemask on top of it, it really motivates them, but the Drama Queen couldn't cash it in.

While Roethlisberger wasn't that great yesterday, he didn't lose the game for them. Their defense did. Their defense couldn't stop the run and Ike Taylor was punked all day long by a gay who ran two routes all season long.

More like McGahee kept the Steelers in the game.

While that's true, Ike Taylor and William Gay could do nothing against Demaryius Thomas and Eddie Royal. Even with James Harrison trying to break Decker's leg, their corners couldn't do a thing.

I agree. Their corners and safeties were exposed. They got caught gambling on playing the run.
