That pick getting overturned was by far the worst call of the year! Steelers got screwed royally on that one.

Of the year? It's right up there for the worst playoff call ever.

Not a bad prediction from this seat with just over 4 min. to go. You want my two SuperBowl tickets?

Whatever happened to "indisputable proof"? The call on the field was a pick. Polamalu caught the ball clean, rolled over twice, and clearly knocked the ball out of his hand with his knee as he was trying to get up to advance the ball. There was enough indisputable proof of a catch to overrule it if the call on the field was incomplete

can you imagine if big ben had pulled a whiney bitch move and not stuck it out to make that tackle? what was bettis thinking not holdin onto that ball for dear life with BOTH hands.
as for next week......if the steelers can wipe out the 5 turnovers the patriots put up on the board theres no reason they shouldnt win by 10. broncos are overrated imho, the pats shot themselves repeatedly, cant do that on the road in the playoffs.
as for corey dillon......wonder if lendale white will fall down to the pats

Looked pretty clear to me that Dillon is less than 100%--quite a bit less.
Not sure about next week. I guess I would be going with the Steelers. I can't stand the thought of Ron Dayne playing in a Super Bowl, even as a sub. Another reminder of how the Giants have consistently screwed the pooch with their first round picks under Ernie Accorsi's GM tenure

No "Hater" here,...Steelers soundly beat the Colts the way everybody beats the Colts...Playing hard-nosed football. The Colts have always been "Soft"
Kinda nice to see Vander-jerk shank that FG.....That guy is a pinhead. They Should beat Denver, I also think the Broncos are over-rated.....but that is why you play the game.
and I agree that was a Bogus call on the INT, looked clean to me

There is nothing worse for a Giants fan than to see Big Ben make big plays.
But I don't hold our management's stupidity against him
Think the Chargers would take Eli back for Phillip Rivers and next year's number 1? :

Because the Pats turned the ball over 5 times and the Steel just went in and shut Peyton the offense down and came out and basically throttled their Defense off the bat, that is the difference between choke and smack down  As a matter of fact the Colts won the turnover battle and ref calls and still lost

Cheapest flight right now is $276. Then you'll need rental car, hotel, all in short supply at a SB. Better start shopping around for an RV to take to Detroit

yep but your guys came within inches of choking had Ben not been able to stretch out to tackle that turnover fumble Bettis made not holding the ball with two hands
The pats didn't choke, yes they lost but how can we choke when we were underdogs. Playing from behind didn't help any since the ref blew that PI call on Samuel. I know the zebras were trying to skew your game toward the colts also but atleast you won. That's all I gotta say.
Congrats again Vectorfisher
