    What do you expect they are xxxxing Browns fans who are getting ready for their worthless game tomorrow night with Philly with Ken Dorsey as their starting QB. I mean if you were in that situation you too probably would be obsessed with the Steelers as well because the Browns team isnt even on the radar screen at this point.

    It is pathetic !! Then they will cry "Its OUR Board ...if you dont like it Go away " lol... IF they weren't obsessed with us WE wouldnt have to comment and Laugh at theier sorry butts !!

    • The league does not permit ownership to be involved in gambling operations, whether government sanctioned or not.

  • Lum, go away. Why are you here? This isnt a Pac-10 board.

    As to the topic at hand, the halftime guys for Sunday Night Football unanimously agreed that there was no way the call on the field should have been overturned. Here is PFT's take:

    In a stunning replay ruling that will make referee Walt “Tuck Rule” Coleman roughly as popular in Baltimore as he is in Oakland, the Steelers received a late touchdown on a play in which it appeared to be fairly clear that the ball was not in the end zone at the time Santonio Holmes acquired possession of it.

    The ruling on the field was that the ball did not break the plane of the end zone once Holmes caught it. And this means that the call should have been overturned only with conclusive visual evidence — as Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren once explained it, 50 drunks in a bar would all have to agree — that it was a touchdown.

    Sorry, Steelers fans. It wasn’t a touchdown.

  • Victory in the REFS from what I am reading, can't say for myself, cause I did not watch it!

  • And the steeler pukes come out in force trying to explain how everybody under the sun that watched the game today is wrong and that was a legit game and a legit call. LMFAO you guys are blind and stupid if you believe that. Ofcourse if it was my team I wouldnt want to believe they was a bunch of cheaters either but the rest of the world can see the truth. The Rooneys being involed in gambling makes perfect sense. Only way to explain the bull shit calls I have seen watching steeler games. The refs were bought and paid for, no doubt about it, you guys coming on here and trying to explain it away does nothing. Anybody that watched that game knows that was a bullshit call. Two booth reviews, both unmistakably wrong and both in favor for the steelers. Ya that game wasnt rigged. 🙄

    Why do you even bother caring about the NFL if you think it's rigged?

    It was the right call.

    If you have the ball in your hands and are standing in the endzone it is a TD, no matter where the ball is.

    Simms and Nantz seemed to have a hard-on for Balt in that instance. They kept talking about where the ball was, like that mattered.

    Wrong, the ball has to cross the plane of the goal line. When a receiver makes a catch on the end zone sideline and snags a pass out of bounds, but his feet are in, it's a TD because the ball crossed the plane which extends forever out of bounds.

    What you are saying is that if a running back runs toward the goal line on 4th-and-1 and slides feet first into the end zone (without the ball crossing), is that a Touch down too?

    Not sure what the exact rule is.

    However if your feet are in the end zone and you try to down a punt that has not crossed the end line it is a touchback. In that case the feet in endzone dictates a toucback. It may be the same for a catch at the goal line. So the ref may actually have been correct in calling his feet in the end zone made it a

    TD. Further if a ball is clearly out of the field of play as it crosses the goa line and is caught with feet in bounds it is also a TD and the Ball never crossed the plane of the goal line. In any case apparently the booth crew had and overhead shot showing the ball crossed the plane in that case it is a moot point wherever his feet were. Futher, they likely would have gotten the 1/2 inch needed if they kept the original spot.

    Steelers won and they deserved to win and that is the bottom line. If indeed the referee mispoke the league should state so. They should also officially clarify the ruling which one would assume they will. Just as they admitted to cost the Steelers a TD a few games ago.

    The refereeing in the league is pathetic and blown calls abound every game like the phantom holding call on Ray Lewis earlier in the game and that pathetic personal foul call againt the kicker at the end.

    Something that really irritates me is judgement calls like a spot can be reviewed but blown penalty callls cannot......the league rules in regards to challenges and reviews are as FUBAR as possible

    Good game, the best team won.......

    Root for the AFC North to do well in the playoffs

    Steelers had the hardest schedule in the NFL and now have won 11 games, they deserve accolades

    The Browns need to emulate their formula....play better and renew the rivalry......that was once one of the best in football.....and the fans need to stop whining.....and start demanding excellence

    I dont believe every game is rigged but I would venture to guess there are a couple a week that are. Where there is gambling there is corruption, and there is way to much money to be made in betting on sports. Lets not forget these refs are not full time employies of the NFL. I dont know how much money they make but I guarentee they would/do make more in payoffs.

    I watch because I enjoy the game and I like to root for the Browns. I would like to believe I am wrong about it being rigged but I cant deny what my own eyes have seen. The NFL never comes out and says this was a bad call and fires a ref, they explain it away and if you question a call you get fined. The NFL protects the refs instead of making them own up to these horrible calls. There should be investagations , but that would be bad for business.

  • Futher, they likely would have gotten the 1/2 inch needed if they kept the original spot.
    It wouldve been 4th down. Not even the Steelers go for it against the Ravens D in that situation. It wouldve been a FG to tie the game.

    Don't watch then dumba$$. You're most likely a wrestling fan who thought Hulk Hogan was robbed when he "fought" Rocky to a draw. It's funny how every bad call that goes in favor of your your team is quickly forgotten, and they were just the better team. And your team never loses, they only get cheated by the refs. Get real and quit whining.

    I can see Furburger now, Tivo on replay trying desperately to find some satisfaction or last straw to grasp onto in another division championship for the Steelers.

    Quit typing like a Ghetto-Tard. Trust me it isn't impressing ANYONE.

    Isn't it funny how these officials suddenly turn into Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder and Helen Keller when they're assigned to a Squealer game? This kind of thing happens WAY too often in Pittshole's favor for it to be a coincidence.

    Face it, your team reeks of taint.

    Peter eater (errr...pumpkin eater), admit the cold hard facts.

    If the football gods offered to exchange the Steelers players, coaches and ownership in a direct swap for everything Clowns...you would take it grinning like a fool and ejaculating in your pants. Too bad for you it'll never happen, but then again you and furburger can pin your hopes on another teams failure, rather than accept the ineptitude of your own.
