Losing our quarterback after a very fine opening drive was the story of this game, not intimidation.
The interception was just a bad play, but Andy's injury is not something we can blame on the Steelers. We should have just eaten that play instead of throwing it at all. But after the pick happened, Andy just had a football player's reaction, and it cost us. I don't blame Andy for hitting the guy, I don't think he considered anything else. It was just damned unfortunate.
The play that I thought was the dirty, cheap shot was the one on Eifert. That pond scum Mitchell went way out of his way to go helmet to helmet on a guy who was virtually on the ground. It was absolutely intentional, and that prick does that kind of thing all the time. It didn't intimidate Eifert, he came right back soon on the same drive with a nice catch and determined run. But the concussion protocol caught up with him, which is just what Mitchell was shooting for, and he should have been ejected from the game on the spot.
I can accept some of the helmet to helmet hits as unintentional when everybody is up in the air with bodies flying. But Mitchell had to go way low to accomplish his mission. But I'd say going low comes naturally to Mitchell. I hope they fine the hell out of him. He is everything that's wrong with the NFL.
