From the showing today NE could give 9 and cover with ease.

That sounds like something Philly and Buddy Ryan would come up with.

I think Cowher made the right call. If they were stopped on that fourth down it would have been devastating.

I expect someone will be coughing the ball up on this drive...possibly Roffee Burger.

"Can the Steelers turn it around?" was kinda funny when they were down by a couple dozen, but they're back in it, so....

I quit laughing.

Not going for that TD sunk the Steelers in my opinion. A TD in that situation would have put all the pressure on the Patriots.

I disagree. All the pressure is on the Steelers. Had they not gotten that field goal, it would be a much different game right now. Two TD's and a field goal would be impossible.

Colts didn't give up. The Patriots wore their defense down to nothing in the second half.

I disagree with the FG on fourth down. Three or seven makes no difference.

Oh well, Moot point, now. That's an interception.

The FG was stupid. No way the Pats score at all if they get the ball inside their own 2. Worst case scenario the Steelers are still down by 14 but start at midfield. Instead they're desperate, throw the interception and it's over.

Going mincing in the playoffs always leads to defeat, there is no tomorrow always try to win. It's not college, there is no punishment for margin of loss.

If they stop the Steelers here, that IS the ball game. This won't turn into the "Heidi Bowl."

(The "Heidi Bowl" was a game around 1969 when the last 4 minutes of a Jets game was pre-empted by the movie "Heidi". Namath and the Jets came from 20 points back, scored THREE touchdowns in four minutes and won the game. Jets fans were livid that they missed the great comeback.)

I don't think so, his arms were too low when the ball hit.
