Are The Steelers Good or Just Lucky?

It was a horrible play call, but at least Butler had to make a play on it, whereas Harrison's interception was thrown right to him.  There's also a difference between Russel throwing it to the outside in single coverage versus Warner throwing it to the middle of the field within 5 or 10 yards.

The two timeouts the Titans took, they scored ON THE VERY NEXT PLAY BOTH TIMES, so, no, it wasn't just luck because those timeouts were likely needed to set up scoring plays.  So they wouldn't have been in the same situation if they hadn't used the timeouts.

So you claim you stand by all your examples, yet you just admitted that you changed one example and replaced it with a worse example.



It was somewhat lucky, but coaches don't take risks if they're not calculated and have a good chance of going right.  

Also, it didn't bounce off of his chest like he was just standing there but rather that he dove forward and it hit off of him.

Onside kicks are difficult to field for a ball bouncing around with front-line players not expecting it.  
 
As I said, it was obviously lucky, but there's no way of saying the Colts score, even with good field position.  The Saints controlled the second half, even without that.

In fact, the Saints only scored a field goal, so not like it was too big. 
Not implausible, but unlikely.

Who's to say that they wouldn't have gotten beaten worse?




Actually, it does tell you when posts are made, which is how I know it took you an hour.

As I pointed out, your examples are horrible attempts to avoid acknowledging that your team was just lucky and that no other team is as lucky as the Steelers were.

You are hilarious, and you don't even know it.
