Did the Steelers play today?

by steeler fever on Dec 24, 2011 4:35 PM EST

Oh yeah, just caught the score 27 to 0. Wow. Not bad for a "too old", "too fragile", " woulda got cut" backup QB! I saw a replay where Charlie Batch actually looked like Big Ben for at least one play. Charlie shook off a tackler in the backfield and scrambled out completeing a nicely thrown touch pass to a scrambing receiver. NICE!

Does anyone know when this game is broadcast on NFL Network? I would like to check it out on replay.

We are lookin pretty good going into the playoffs and should win out next week. Ravens beat the Browns today and the Bengals won. I still think the Ravens lose at the Bengals next week and Pittsburgh slides in at #2. If our Pittsburgh Steelers go in as the #5 seed we have proven we can win on the road in the playoffs with many of these same players. So yeah, I am feelin pretty good about the Steelers making a playoff run all the way to the SB again this year.

What did you see that impressed you in the game today, if you got to watch it.

Who was the offensive mvp?

Who was the defenensive mvp?

Young guy stand out?

Old guy stand out? I think I could fill in Mr. Batch here.

Did Bruce A. call a nice game?

Refs suck?

Did James Harrison get in a head butting contest with a Ram?

Did everybody see the replay with Simpson from the Bengals somersaulting some dude and landing on his feet in the endzone for a TD. That has to be #1 play of the week.

I watched some of the Denver game today. To everyone who has been worried about me, because of my slight case of Tebow Fever, that is all cleared up now. He is a terrible passer and I don't see him doing much of anything from here on out in the NFL. At least not as a QB.

headen for seven,

GO STEELERS!!!

When did we prove we could beat good teams on the road?

the bacon thing has always been lost on me....

05? Certainly not in the regular season this year. Though the Bungles ain’t bad.

'05 was a hell of a run

At that point in time, I didn’t even like the Steelers, but even I had to admit that their defensive stand against the Colts was phenomenal.

Hopefully the Bengals screw up the Ravens season this time; if not PIT, at least it’s a division rival. They want into the playoffs; I hope they find a way to get their that hands the Steelers a division title.

AS MUCH AS I WANT TO SEE THE BUNGLES BEAT THE RAVENS I WONT SEE IT

SH!TTY BUNGLES WILL BE BLACKED OUT AGAIN NEXT WEEK. This city would not sell out an AFC championship game at home (unless it was against the Steelers).

Mendy ran DAMN hard today

And Troy was FLYING all over the place. He had a couple of nice tackle for losses.

Cortez looked good on ST.

Stay thirsty my friends.

Cortez is a good lookin rookie

I would rather save the superman stuff for the playoffs. Sometimes I think his hair get the best of him and thats where the flying comes in.

Streamed the game

through the laptop hooked up to the HD while making Xmas dinner for the fams, food went everywhere when things went right. Good thing the in-laws are used to my game day antics.

Charlie, don’t write him off yet.
Mendy, running hard. Honorable mentions to Redman and Clay.
BA was meh
shoe goo and duct tape O line deserves mention for performing well above my expectations after Legs went down.
Clark was a heat seeking missil today. Wish that Troy could hold onto the ball this year.
Harrison is the man

Sorry we missed ya the other night Fever.
Happy Holidays everyone, enjoy and be safe.

P.S. Fever, Amanda has her ring now. Yinz almost blew it when we were at the bar ;)

Thats great gorillar!

Congratulations.

Rebecca was excited for yinz when I told her. She wants to know if you gave her the ring this morning? Rebecca loves her new diamond earrings, women sure do love shiny stuff.

Merry Christmas, all of God’s blessings for you and your family.

Yeah I was glad Charlie performed well. I think Ben and anybody else thats dinged up, sits next week.

I got a #32 throwback…………I may never take it off : ) And I got a Steelers flask so I can sneak a nip or two at the next game ; )

I was kinda hoping the NFL would do us a favor

and flex our game to 4 o clock and leave the bengals game where it is at. After drawing the short stick with the schedule, houston/SF on the road, I thought it would be a nice gesture for the NFL to give us the option of knowing whether to play all out or not.

If the Ravens win, we could treat the browns game like a bye, rest Harrison, Woodley, Troy, Ben, Pouncey, Mendy, Wallace, and give the younger guys more run. So we could get ready for the daunting task that awaits us.

If the Ravens lost, we could go all out play who is able to to play and go for the division title. But no, now both games are on at 4 and there will be millions of fans checking both games at the same time, which is probably what the NFL really wanted.

I love the Steelers.
