Question About the Offsides Penalty at the 2:00 Warning
Given that the Slags were trying, with some success, to time the snap count for most of the game, I wonder if we did anything unusual on that play to throw them off and score an offsides penalty at a critical moment.
If not, the outcome was fortuitous, to say the least.

Not really they knew it was a pass play, so they tried to guess the snap. But what was dumber was not running on 3rd and 2. Had Joe thrown an incomplete pass or got sacked and fumbles would of made things much harder. Cam called a VERY BAD GAME AGAIN.

Re: Question About the Offsides Penalty at the 2:00 Warning
Here's a question: didn't the Steelers have to call back to back time-outs? Isn't that illegal? Why was there no penalty?
I might be remembering incorrectly.

Re: Question About the Offsides Penalty at the 2:00 Warning
Huge tactical mistake by Tomlin to call their last timeout on the other side of the two-minute warning. Even without the offsides penalty to get us there and let us run another play, using the timeout there gives us the freedom to pass without the downside of an incomplete stopping the clock.

Re: Question About the Offsides Penalty at the 2:00 Warning
The question I had about last night's game had to do with the injury time out for Jerricho Cotchery with 22 seconds left to go in the game. The Steelers were out of time outs, so why wasn't there a 10 second run off?

Re: Question About the Offsides Penalty at the 2:00 Warning
Exactly. They would have saved 7 or 8 seconds (the length of the play), but they let the Ravens open the entire playbook instead of forcing them to run or to only throw a pass that had virtually no risk (as they tried on the last play where Flacco took the sack. And then they screwed themselves by jumping offside.

I didnt notice anything too different. Same old tells they did the entire game. Wouldnt be much of a benefit to give them an advantage for 99% of the game just to trick them once if you needed to late.
