The guy that is managing the clock has been trying to cheat in favour of the Steelers all Game, tbh.

Was going to say the same thing. Happened at least two obvious times in the last 2 minutes of the half. :lol

According to Andy super bowl gonna be Browns and Rams. Sounds legit

Relax. Chiefs will beat the Browns next week. This game is all about the AFC North rivalry and revenge for 20+ years of Stoolers taking a stool dump on the Browns. The Browns will be back to good but not great next week when they go to Arrowhead.

I'm feeling Bucs-Chiefs for the Super Bowl tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Baker Mahomes tbh

[Millennial_Messiah]

lol porchmonkey preacha head coach going for 2 there for no fucking reason at all like a moron

going for 2 for no fucking reason at all must be a thing in the air with Pennsylvania

Weird state.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Running on 2nd & 10 should never be in the playbook unless you're actively trying to run out the clock at the end of a game/half.

[DAF86]

Will the Brown choke this?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Will the Brown choke this?

That would be the greatest playoff comeback / greatest playoff choke in NFL playoff history, so it would make sense for that specific franchise to own that title... wouldn't it?

[Millennial_Messiah]

(Other than the Falcons, of course. But that's the most fraudulent state in the USA anyways.)

[Robz4000]

Welp, Browns gonna Brown.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol lol rapist, that's Chase Claypool, not Calvin Johnson on a ladder.

[Robz4000]

28-3 will still be the biggest choke in NFL history because of the fact it was in the SB and they were up big late in the third quarter.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Welp, Browns gonna Brown.

Not going to happen. Largest playoff comeback is 25 I believe. The Steelers were down 28. Never happened before.

[Millennial_Messiah]

28-3 will still be the biggest choke in NFL history because of the fact it was in the SB and they were up big late in the third quarter.

Idk... 35-10 with the football takes the cake. 35-7 near the end of the first half. This would be worse than Sacramento/LA Game 4 in 2002

[Millennial_Messiah]

Schuster is one of the most clutch receivers in the NFL, I'll give Pitt credit for that

[Millennial_Messiah]

The book actually says go for 2 in that situation, but they shouldn't have gone for 2 last time. 11 is a field goal, a TD and two point conversion. Down 12, you have to score two TDs.

[Robz4000]

Idk... 35-10 with the football takes the cake. 35-7 near the end of the first half. This would be worse than Sacramento/LA Game 4 in 2002

Scoring 28 points in a half isn't that crazy tbh. Scoring 25 points in a quarter, in the SB no less, is ridiculous.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Meat Cleavers fans anuses tightening up a little.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Scoring 28 points in a half isn't that crazy tbh. Scoring 25 points in a quarter, in the SB no less, is ridiculous.

The Cheatriots scored 19 in the 4th, not 25.

The drive to cut it from 25 to 19 happened midway through the 3rd. Gostkowski missed that extra point.

Not to mention, most of that field goal drive (the Grady Jarrett sacks in the red zone drive) that got the Pats from 19 down to 16 happened late in the 3rd quarter.

[resistanze]

Browns starting to browns

[RD2191]

assholes getting tight in Cleveland

[Millennial_Messiah]

Browns starting to browns

Just forced a punt there

Baker got lucky not throwing a pick 6 there

[DAF86]

lol punting it on this situation. WTF?

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol Tomlin a dumbass for punting there

[Millennial_Messiah]

Landry makes Tomlin pay for that decision.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Landry again! Now they're back at that same spot they punted from. Lmao :lol porchmonkey head coach

[Robz4000]

Guess the Browns are gonna hold on after all.

[RD2191]

chubbbbbbbbbbb

[Millennial_Messiah]

Chubb :toast TD Browns, clinching the game.

:lmao Fire Tomlin, tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Guess the Browns are gonna hold on after all.

Yep, ball game over. 42-23 in the 4th quarter is insurmountable.

[DAF86]

Imagine not going for it in 4th and 1 with all the momentum in the World. What a stupid ass decision.

[Millennial_Messiah]

lol punting it on this situation. WTF?

#FireTomlin :rollin

[Millennial_Messiah]

Imagine not going for it in 4th and 1 with all the momentum in the World. What a stupid ass decision.

Remember the time the Golden State Splash Brother Warriors went from being a perennial early round out to being a perennial NBA Finals contender/winner every year just by giving their porchmonkey preacher loudmouth dumbass head coach the axe?

Steelers should take a look at that

[MultiTroll]

:lol Tomlin a dumbass for punting there
Facepalm. WTF was Tomlin thinking.
Had all the momentum going.
4 and 1?

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol lousy challenge, tbh, just gave Pitt a free timeout.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Facepalm. WTF was Tomlin thinking.
Had all the momentum going.
4 and 1?
I know their running game sucks, but the quick passing game has been their best asset all year. WTF?

[Robz4000]

:lol spoke too soon

[Millennial_Messiah]

Down 19 in the 4th, that's exactly what the Patriots faced in the 4th in Super Bowl 52 vs. the Fraud State of Georgia Failcons.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I just don't understand going for 2 at all when you don't have a running game.

[Millennial_Messiah]

not even a decoy. No chance.

[Millennial_Messiah]

3 Million followers on all of those social media *sites*.

That's 3 million more followers than the President of the United States. Literally.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao Steelers are a "defensive" team

if swiss cheese is the idea of a great defense, then that they are

[Millennial_Messiah]

Big TD drop by Pooper there

[Darth_Pelican]

:lmao Big Rape

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao Big Rapist Pick-Four :lmao

That does it. Game, set, match. :toast

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol Big Rape with the Dak Prescott-esque empty carbs statline

[Mark Celibate]

You wait two more minutes, and it would be a fight. TN clearly has a culture that can dish out shit but not take it. As far as I know, they decided completely on their own to take their taunting past usual trash talk and make it weird and personal. No, I have no issue with the Ravens pissing on them after taking the ball way. That they trusted Jackson to back them up and ended up being right just made it all the sweeter. The group-photo celebration is extremely common, and I think it's actually a pretty cool way to make good events about a team rather than just the individual player who scored or got the turnover. Any other game, they would've done that behind the endzone, and this would be an afterthought. That they felt like being disrespectful to a team that was basically bullying them off the field doesn't make them jackasses.

The penalty was basically irrelevant anyway. It went from the +47 to the -38. That's still great field position and you're talking about a punt inside the opposing 20 or a turnover with good field position anyway.

I would take a fight after the game over a guaranteed penalty for "social media likes" any day of the week. Or better yet, is it too much to ask to just take the high road and not retaliate at all? I just don't see how you can justify low-class actions at the expense of hurting your team's chances of winning a ballgame. I could never see a Belichick or Parcells coached team getting away with crap like that without getting an earful or some kind of discipline. Could you ever picture the Patriots coming on the field and acting like morons and drawing a penalty like that when the game is still in doubt?

I guess we can agree to disagree. Tbh you're obviously one of the more intelligent posters on this site, I'm surprised you're defending this imo

I still wish Bill Cowher didn't retire early.

[Millennial_Messiah]

You're right. Now you've been stuck with a Mark Jackson clone as your head coach for the past 15 years and haven't won a damn thing except one measly Super Bowl despite consistently having among the most stacked rosters in sports, plus a league office which consistently gives you help on and off the field. Now you're about to lose half that talent and head for the gutter. But Porchmonkey won't be fired because #RooneyRule :lmao

Cowher could've been on the level of Popovich/Belichick. He had tenure for life if he wanted it. He had already accomplished so much, but he retired too young.

I respect wanting to move on and spend more time with family, but damn. He gave up a lot.

You aren't thinking this through. A fight after the game means suspensions or even potential injuries, and for the Baltimore that would be beyond idiotic. This also has nothing to do with social media. It has everything to do with the team's internal feelings about the beef between them and Tennessee. "Taking the high road" was not retaliating when the Titans did it when the Titans did it the first time, or the second time, or the third time. Eventually they snapped, and by snapping, they taunted them back. That's extremely tame, and for a fan aware of what was going on, it was awesome.

I've already pointed out how the yardage actually didn't make any substantial difference to the possible outcomes of the game. Had the Titans found some way to win, it wasn't going to be because of the 15 yards the Ravens offense lost before they had a first-and-10 with two minutes to play. It was going to be because they executed poorly, likely on both sides of the ball. Had the penalty given their offense the ball deep in their own territory or one a first-and-25, then that would be one thing. But I'd bet it dropped the Ravens' win probability from like 98.4 to like 98.2, and that's not worth getting mad over.

As a fan, I watch football for basically the sole purpose of being entertained. Winning games matters to the extent that it gives me opportunities to watch them play more games and maybe for higher stakes and more bragging rights with other fans. But how they win their games and the experience of watching them do that is the most important thing. Seeing Jackson overcome the doubters, seeing the team come back from a deficit and seeing them get theirs against a team that was becoming and insufferable bully made my week. It wouldn't've been the same had they were the stoic, robotic professionals you suggest they should be. Maybe they aren't a Belichek team, but I'm perfectly happy with them as they are.

[Blake]

Baker Mahomes tbh

Get ready to hear this game talked about a hundred times this week



".......Mahomes set an NCAA record with 819 yards of total offense in a game.*He also tied the NCAA mark for passing yards with 734.

- Mahomes threw 88 passes. He just missed the NCAA record of 89 set by Washington State's Connor Halliday.

- Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield was 27-of-36 for 545 yards and seven touchdowns. The seven scoring passes set a school record.

- Mahomes and Mayfield set NCAA records with 1,279 combined passing yards and 1,383 yards of total offense by two players

What a pisser. I was 5/5 on a 6 game teaser with Pitt -1 in the last game.

Damn teasing Pitt down to -1 at home seems like a lock 9/10 times.

[spurraider21]

Has no idea this game was on Nickelodeon.

Just turned to the channel and saw Spongebob pop up between the crossbar and a bunch of cartoon graphics on replay. Somebody actually thought this was a great idea. I'm rolling my eyes.
i dont think you were the target audience for that broadcast

[SpursforSix]

It was the leg that I felt most confident about.
Especially with the Brown's COVID issues and a couple of injuries.
