bad end to the end of the Seahawks game - Richardson got ejected for acting up and I suspect quite a few Hawks players will be getting hefty fines (cannot stand that team)
Typical of the Seahawks. No class whatsoever, but what do you expect from a Pete Carroll team. Hopefully Bennett, Richardson, and the other Seahawks player who was ejected (and tried to go into the stands) will face mutli-game suspensions.
Multiple game suspensions for a few of them, keep them out of the playoffs, Jets 2nd round pick goes higher. Win, win, win situation.
Hate the Steelers, but rooting for them to get the winning FG on this drive, since they're the only team that can keep New England out of the #1 seed. Not looking too good, however.
Roethlisberger up to 506 yards passing in this game! First player in NFL history with three 500+ passing yard games in his career.
Wow, what a terrible decision to throw that pass - that could have easily been picked off, and it stops the clock.
Two classic games between Eagles/Rams and Steelers/Ravens, not a lick of defense in sight. I feel like I'm watching real life Madden.
I don't understand why that wasn't three straight handoffs to Bell. But this guy is money, so they get the FG anyway. Poor playcalling left the Ravens ~:40 to play with though.
I really don't understand why coaches consistently make such basic mistakes in clock management. They're constantly trying to outsmart themselves, when if they just do the obvious thing it would work out so much better.
What a weird ending, where the teams don't even know what the rule is about the clock restarting after the ball is fumbled out of bounds. You'd think teams would have someone on the sidelines who would know such things.
So they stop the clock when the ball rolls out of bounds, spot it....and then the clock runs out while the Ravens are in the huddle? ....sure OK. Ravens choke one away.
It's a good rule - it prevents a team from getting the benefit of fumbling the ball out of bounds and getting the clock to stop when they don't have a timeout. The amazing thing is that the players and coaches seem to be completely unaware that that is the rule - if Baltimore had lined up they would have been able to run another play.
If the referee wound his arm around that tells them that the clock is running - he doesn't have to do anything else. It's Flacco's responsibility to know what was going to happen. The refs have messed up plenty of things this year, but they got this one right.
Ah ok. So it's not that the refs screwed up, its that not a single Raven knew the rules and they stupidly huddled up with a live clock. Awesome.
I didn't see it, but that's what Michaels said. If he didn't wind his arm around then Baltimore has a legitimate complaint.
