Week 15 - Pittsburgh Steelers At Baltimore Ravens

[quote name='FerrariFan87' post='105113' date='Dec 14 2008, 07:34 PM']Look, guys this was a very emotional game.. We were picked to be the bottom dwellers of this division and the AFC this season and look at us now. Pittsburgh winning the division is to NO ONE'S surprise and for us to do what we are doing is awesome, and the Wild Card is in our grasp! If I remember correctly our SB year, we were the Wild Card Like Pu said, the glass is half-full.[/quote]

That's what I'm saying. 9-5 is a hell of a season. We still control our own destiny. Life is beatiful. I love the Ravens. I ******ing hate the sport of Football right now.

To the rest of you: I'm sorry if you're suffering. Obviously one team had to win and one had to lose. I'm sorry for any suffering my friends are experiencing.[/quote]

Gimme a break, if the tables were turned you would be even MORE angry... you can't honestly tell everyone here that was CONCLUSIVELY a TD

[die_hard_raven]

I'm disgusted and if I ever seen they play that far off the ball again during the end of the game I don't know what to say. to be the #2 defense in the league and play 15 yards off the ball and let them move that way is not only pitful but they didn't have a drive like that the entire game because we challenged them and no one was wide open. then that ****ing prevent BS just cost us the division **ck prevent this is some bullsh** i'm madd as hell

[Ravens52]

Wow, this just plain sucks really ****ing bad

[flynismo]

As for the Steelers fans, I would congratulate you on the win, but that was garbage officiating all game long. I congratulate the refs on stealing another one from us.

[quote name='PuRock' post='105103' date='Dec 14 2008, 07:33 PM']I still think we played a hell of a game. We didn't get the lucky breaks that the Steelers did. And that turned out to be the difference maker.[/quote]

They got alot of help from the refs. If they beat us straight up, it would be a different story. But they got 1 to many big breaks from the refs.

[RoflDogs]

Close game, but I am just curious

wasn't the TD pass originally ruled not a TD?

and there was obviously no clear evidence that he scored.

I think we still have a chance, with the next two games.

[quote name='H8R' post='105074' date='Dec 14 2008, 07:29 PM']Our D lets us down in the fourth AGAIN. 90 yard drive, are you kidding?[/quote]

cause the ravs d is overated when we really needed them to get a stop they didnt and thats why we loss im pissed and just really wish we were a good team i frickin pissed . And the thing that got me upset is well i now you loss games in a seasoun but out of all games i wanted the ravens to win this the most . So we could split them and get into the playoffs . And because i always want us to beat the steelers but out of every loss this hurt the most now i think im bout to change in to a diffrent team fan. Not cause im not a ravens fan cause they loss games like this which hurts the fans more then them cause the fans love there home team. But losses like this i mean i was more upset about this loss then the one to the colts in 2006 because at least that seasoun we made the playoffs. Im just pissed and qish we had a better team i dont care what anyone says this team are pretenders.

[Ravnet]

I'm actually not upset at all. I see where you are all coming from, but this is not supposed to be our year.

Flacco, McClain, Rice, and our entire offensive line are still a full year away. Even if we had won this game, it has been proven that our offense quite simply is not good enough to overcome good defenses.

In the playoffs, Flacco just does not have enough experience to adapt when things don't go perfectly.

I was angry at several points of this game. I'm not going to argue. We've all had breaks (and I'm not necessarily saying that was givin to us).

[FerrariFan87]

What the heck happened to Fabian Washington? He was playing excellently ALL game and all of a sudden I see Walker in there with no explanation!

[PuRock]

I feel better now. It's a hard loss to swallow. I thought we did pretty well against the #1 D. They just caught the breaks. Time to move on to Big D.

[H8R]

We need the guy who did a photo review of the 58 title game last night. I still don't see how that can over turn that. Someones pockets are FAT! Even the call on that STOP on third that they got was SILLY. What exactly do the refs see in the booth, Dollar signs?

[PurplePain84]

we gave them the chance to win the game on that 3rd down call when we had the ball in field goal range . we should have ran and went for the 3 points to force pittsburgh to drive for a touchdown for overtime but we choose to pass , fumbled the ball and took us out of field goal range.

[macbrak]

Congrats Steelers, what a cheap win.

[Ravens52]

First off, that freaking blind ref who clearly changed the momentum on that guy who WASNT EVEN CLOSE for the first down. Then that BS TD that there wasn't enough evidence to overturn it.

WOW

Oh come on, not even you can say that the refs were spot on in this game. And that Holmes was CLEARLY in.

Usually I stand up for the Refs. But that one where we stopped them short of the 1st down. Was so blatent.

[Follow the lead block]

it is the typical steelers luck remember the super bowl XL. Our team could not take the kill score 3 time redzone no td so the team that have the highest score wins.

Next time you pretend to be a fan of another team, why not be a little sneaky, and not have the team name in you Display name?

How exactly do you stop a guy who throws a quick slant every single play? It takes him less than a second to release the ball for an easy 10-20 yards.

Additionally, we didn't have Washington or Suggs or Gregg or McAlister on the field.

why dont you go get hit by a train

[oryeman]

This is one of the major reasons I stopped watching sports is offiacting has too much say so in a game. I used to watch Baseball ALL the time now id rather stick a needle in my peehole to eaven watch 3 str8 innings of a game

[Ravens52]

Our offense still sucks, we can't score with the GREAT field position we go early on. What a waste

Opening kickoff. BLATANT HOLD on the Ravens not called. That left us on the bad side of the field position battle for most of the 1st half.
BLATANT HOLD on a Raven 3rd and long (on Harrison..., and you KNOW YOU SAW IT TOO). led to points for the Ravens.
That's only two. I'm sick of the whining about the refs.

Uh yeah, the Ravens D wasn't overrated when we shut them down completely the first 56 minutes though, were they? Fairweather fans, begone...

We need to eliminate human error from officiated. I'm hoping by the year 2020, that officiating is all done electronically. Gotta love the digital age! I hope all the refs get laid off due to incompetency.

I totally blame Cam Cameron and the rest of the offensive coaches who came up with this pathetic gameplan... McClain gets nearly 100 yards and we don't run it on that 3rd down play that knocked us out of FG range late in the game?
