Kinda bummed because this could have been a good one in a time we are forced to watch some bad ones.
Take a drink every time you hear youngest player in the NFL or patience. I’ll let you know what happened in the 2nd half.

The lack of Bell runs are keeping me sober, thanks.

I was reading some of their gameday thread. Reads exactly like a Bengals one. All fan bases are alike it seems. They are not happy with Artie laughing and dancing after blowing a TD or Tomlin talking about the playing the Pats in the playoffs in his interview with Dungy.

I think they may have realized how ridiculous they were beginning to sound as well.

Tied and probably about to get ugly for the Pack.

No helmet to helmet call, add 2 seconds, pick up the flag.
That was some terrible one sided officiating down the stretch.

Refs missed clear helmet to helmet call on Hundley for the packers last possession. Refs didn't want it to go into OT

Waiting to see the replay on the h2h. If Hundley left the tackle box while
He was scrambling, then it's not a penalty.
And if picking up the flag is favoring the Steelers, why throw it in the first place?

Hundley was right behind center. Watt came in clean on a delay and yes hit Hundley helmet to helmet,

Well hell we got to see a fun game. Wasn’t expecting that. Bengals have no chance at division so I’ll take it.

Only a couple of them get paid.

That's where he was hit, but he was scrambling before that. Once he leaves the tackle box, he's a runner even if he comes back in. He was scrambling before the sack, but I honestly don't know if he left the box or not. Need to see it again.

Well good then because I didn't want OT either. I need to get to bed.

I never root for the Steelers, but that last kick for the win guaranteed me some money, so i'm good with it. :)

FWIW, her eis a link about why the hit was not a penalty: https://www.sbnation.com/2017/11/26/16703644/tj-watt-pittsburgh-steelers-green-bay-packers-sack-rule-roughing-the-passer
I honestly don't know. I didn't watch it (because I turned it off before the half because I am an old person and go to bed early and because they were pissing me off) and the rules around these things are so damned convoluted I've stopped trying to figure it out.
Another link to add, last paragraph: http://packerswire.usatoday.com/2017/11/27/did-helmet-to-helmet-collision-help-steelers-beat-packers/
Quote:To be clear, the Packers were not complaining about a missed penalty call on Watt’s hit. By rule, Hundley should be treated as a runner while attempting to avoid sacks – even in the pocket – and runners aren’t afforded the same protections against helmet-to-helmet hits. The discombobulation as a result of the hit created communication errors that hurt the Packers’ management of the late-game situation, and the Steelers took advantage.
