December 1, 200817 yr You still have yet to answer her question....:lol: :lol: Not a catchable ball...I thought you all knew that when the referee through the flag. He should be fined and suspended, there was clearly intent to injure. This is just as bad as that guys hit on Boldin except that guy was out of control and his helmet lead. Watch it twice... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyNy-TkDGB0 Take off the yellow shades, even if its NOT tipped its pass interfence. Steeler fans...
December 1, 200817 yr Author Not a catchable ball...I thought you all knew that when the referee through the flag. He should be fined and suspended, there was clearly intent to injure. This is just as bad as that guys hit on Boldin except that guy was out of control and his helmet lead. Fair enough...but...how can you be sure he knew the ball was uncatchable. I didn't hear a whistle before the hit. Also, the flag was thrown after the DB had gotten up... I'm not saying you aren't right. I'm just trying to understand the thought process. For the record...the Steelers were laying bruising hits all over the field the whole game. I saw some hits that made me cringe...but I don't think they were dirty...just VERY hard hitting. Those players were playing all out.

Thats the whole point.. its more than likely pass interfence, watch at the 13 second mark. We will never know. Fact is the intent, he saw a kill shot, he took it. He did not care if Welker caught it or not.
December 1, 200817 yr Football is a collision sport. There was nothing cheap about that hit. Did not lead with or use the helmet as a weapon in any way. There is a reason that so many receivers drop balls against the Steelers. They know what is coming.

Whatever:rolleyes:, Steeler fans were on here last week when Holmes got jacked up by Chris Crocker, which by the way, and said it's just a football thing. No big deal, part of the game. You have a disdain for the Steelers, and that's okay. Just goes to show that there's a gap between your team and the Steelers, and for the forseeable future, I don't expect that to change. Suspended,,,,,pleeeaaaaase! And please tell me where pass interference enters the equation here, tipped ball or not.

And please tell me where pass interference enters the equation here, tipped ball or not. Rockmom was asking about the what if's, you have to include the what if pass interence we will never know. The ball did not get there but the Steerler guy left his feet, and took him out. You are right, Steeler football! :thumb:

You are right, Steeler football! :thumb: If there was pass interference on that play a flag would have been thrown, the back judge had no clue the ball was tipped. Therefore there is no dispute. I don't get the PI debate. I left a part out of my previous post after I reviewed it when you copied it. Crocker's hit was no doubt helmet to helmet, yet no steeler fans whined that I recall.
December 1, 200817 yr That cheap shot on Welker is gonna cost about 15,000 grand I agree. There was no excuse for that (and I'm a Steeler's fan).
December 1, 200817 yr That was a pretty sick hit...but I don't think he meant it to be a "dirty" hit. He will probably be fined though, because it was a hit that was on a defenseless receiver. Suspended? No Chance IMO...
December 1, 200817 yr No question he will be fined. Ball tipped. You can see Welker letting up realizing its incomplete. DB leaves his feet to deliver a blow. The question is not if but, rather, how much $$.

December 1, 200817 yr Steelers and Giants are probably the best teams. I think Big Ben will end up costing the Steelers in the playoffs at some point. When I read the first part I thought someone has hijacked HT's computer, then I knew it was really you when I read the last part. I almost called the police... :lol:

The only question is can Ben not screw up enough and just let the D carry them to victories. Don't get me wrong he has been good a times but other times he is down right terrible.... ...Enter back into Steeler hate mode!
