Yes they do. It would have been appropriate.

Timeout #2 for the Stillers as they line up to go for it on 4th and 1 at the Fins 39.

Madden, it's a 56-yard field goal, and if they miss, the Fins would get it at the 46, not the 39.

They coulda thrown Parker for a loss. Damn missed tackles.

That's how to run outside in short-yardage situations.

It was, I give 'em credit for that.

First quarter over, teams bouncing off each other. Given home field advantage, I'm happy with that.

He's going to get an a**-chewing out if this results in points for Pitt.

He forgot the first rule of playing the edge; don't give up the outside.

I didn't think that Batch could make that kind of throw.

Listen to Madden praise that 4th-and-1 call that he blasted at the time.

They got caught napping. Didn't expect Batch to go the end zone on that one.
