[A CA Guy]

That hit was nasty despite the gentleman Palmer was about it.
The guy fell past Palmer, came back and pulled Palmer's knees in sideways. He didn't fall toward Carson, he went after him no matter what they want to say IMO.

Amen. And a late hit too, the ball was well off.

I don't know...it didnt look that way to me, and I have no interest in the teams...

[MikefromOhio]

was it a nasty hit? Sure thing.

was it intentional? No way in hell.

You can't intentionally do that. He had no idea where the ball was (his face was in the ground).

Look at his reaction after the hit. He was disgusted with himself over it.

You are exactly right. That reaction by that thug afterwards was totally phony. The Steelers are thugs, even by the standards of what the NFL has become.

I shudder to think what they'll try to do to Harrison and Manning this week.

Palmer is all class. And tough too. I would have been crying like a wet baby.

I completely agree with this comment

Back when the Patriots won their first Super Bowl they had to beat the Steelers but Brady was injured in the first half in a similar way. An interior lineman grabbed his leg and leaned on it forcing him to leave the game (luckily he wasn't hurt too bad, just a bad sprain) and Bledsoe took over. Between Bledsoe's heroics and the great Patriots defense, the Pats were able to prevail.

If Manning gets hurt or if the Bronco's go after Seymore and McGinist using chop blocking techniques then I think an investigation by the commissioners office should be forthcoming.
