    he has a very dumb qb. he had chance after chance to make it 21-0. instead they were kicking fg's. then his track star qb, hurt himself on some vinyl

    The Steelers defense is trash, I completely understand going for it. If it had been a good pass, it was an easy win.

    it's just like the easy pass Jackson had for a TD earlier in the last drive he didn't even see his TE wide open till it was too late... same mistake he made play before he threw a 100+ yard pick 6 in playoffs vs Bills

    or last week... had an easy TD pass to flats wide open and he didn't put enough touch on it and a DE on Browns jumped up and tipped it with 1 finger... he's a BAD QB in the end

    That's true but they are only in this position because of him. That oline is so terrible...Besides maybe Murray, there isn't another qb that could succeed in this offense. And Murray for only a few games as he'd get injured. Even with the missed throw, if you told me that Andrews would be completely open and it was just a pitch and catch to win the game, I'd take that gamble every time.

    other teams don't run crap offense like the ravens because they have real QB's

    steelers let him drive down the field at the end because they let him throw inside the numbers .... should've just kept playing normal defense

    Analytics probably said going for 2 is like 5% better or something

    Going to overtime doesn't guarantee a win. Looks bad because it failed but it might have been the correct play especially if they had a really good 2 pt play saved up

    First off it didn’t surprise me at all from Harbaugh. They were down some corners and couldn’t stop the Steelers in that fourth quarter. They still have the division lead. Wasn’t like it was a playoff game or anything. Look at the play, he made the right call and had an absolutely perfect play drawn up. Lamar just missed it. Can’t blame that on the coach.

    They had really good 2pt play saved up. That should of been an easy conversion.

    Yeah I didn't see it. Everyone would be calling him a genius if they just executed. I have no problem with the decision

    That’s why he went for the 2. I heard tomlin after the game and he claimed he knew they were going to go for 2 after they scored because of analytics, which say to go for 2 in that spot.

    That’s what I think. Make the game longer with a better team and better kicker. You can’t live only with analytics. The steeler defense was dead tired, losing time of possession by 13 minutes. Why would they want the game to end? I had the points so I was happy but still was surprised.

    The two-point play call was a good one; it probably works more often than not.

    Black QB's in the NFL can't throw the ball accurately. This is why Lamar Jackson and Teddy Bridgewater failed miserably this weekend. Can't trust them to throw the pigskin in the crunch and deliver. INT machines or incomplete passes is what we saw. Only good for running the ball.

    Wilson is the best black QB.
    Not his fault his o-line sucks balls and Russ is running for his life all the time.

    Today he said something about CB injuries. Seems like a BS reason. I was watching the game with my dad and first thing I told him was that he must have something he really likes to go for 2 here. To me, it’s still a close enough call that you have to analyze the situation. The analytics will dictate going for 2 because it is roughly 50 percent you make it and there’s a small chance the extra point could be missed. Auburn had a chance to win on a 2 against Alabama and I thought they should have went for 2 and they kicked. It’s a close enough call that game flow has to be factored into the decision.

    He was, but just doesn't look the same anymore. Might be playing hurt.

    GREAT MOMENTS IN HATE: WOODY HAYES CALLED TWO-POINT CONVERSION UP 50-14 AGAINST MICHIGAN IN 1968,


    BECAUSE HE COULDN'T GO FOR THREE







    Perhaps the most iconic moment of the entire history of The Game came in the fourth quarter of a lopsided Ohio State victory over Michigan in 1968.


    Already leading their bitter rivals 44-14 late in the fourth quarter of a rivalry showdown, the Buckeyes found the end zone once again on a Jim Otis rush, pushing the score to an eye-popping 50-14.



    It was already Ohio State's most lopsided win over the Wolverines in over 30 years, but apparently, that wasn't enough for Woody Hayes as he iconically called for a two-point conversion.



    The conversion failed, but the damage was done – Woody had attempted to run up the score against Michigan.

    Wilson and Maholmes are half black and that doesn't count, one white parent each. Half breeds and very light skinned.

    Hard to win with dark skinned blacks at QB in the NFL. They can run their asses off though. Not hating and just calling it as I see it.
