Why is he going for the big hit on that? That play is going to be haunting him.

Guess the safety was trying to make the highlights with the big hit... mission accomplished, he's on the highlights...

Safety not only needlessy committed, but delivered a perfect block on the only other guy who could have made the tackle.

There's no good way to write this rule, because if they'd scored and it was a 1 point difference after the touchdown, a PAT block runback would win the Saints the game. You can't really have a conditional, "if the team scoring is up by more than x points with 0:00, they can decline to kick the PAT or conversion." And you certainly don't want refs exercising that discretion either.

The throw by Keenum was pretty damn choice as well. Now, there's a pretty good chance that the kick might have been missed if the DB did what he was supposed to do (it would have been around 50-52 yards I believe), but with 10 seconds left, he throws a 35 yard perfectly placed ball that would allow the receiver to get out of bounds (allowing them to set up whatever hashmark they needed as they still had a TO on the scoreboard)

If that play was made by the DB, we'd be talking about Keenum more then we are

Unbelievable. Keenum, Foles, Bortles and Brady. One of these things is not like the others.

Who would have thought that the 2015 Rams had two Super Bowl calibre quarterbacks on their roster?

It's also guaranteed to be an historic Super Bowl... either one franchise winning their first championship or the Patriots tying the record. Three feel good stories and one other story that probably very few people outside of the Patriots fan base want to see.

Same thought here. Crazy how he missed and took out the only teammate who could make a play.

It seems like a pretty simple addendum to add - if the outcome of the play can have no bearing on the outcome of the game (3+ point differential after the score in question) that the scoring team can choose not to attempt the point after.

No timeouts left. No doubt that it was a very good throw, although arguably still slightly too far towards the middle of the field. There's a chance that Diggs gets tackled in bounds there and the game is over.

Non-dola edit: Correction, I saw the video the wrong way (I was ill, missed it live) I thought the indicator was that they had a timeout left. Still, great throw

Just an example of coaches trying to overcoach. The Vikings were in control of that game until they got too far ahead the coaches changed the gameplan. Koodos to the Saints for not quitting and thank god one of them late game heroics finally went in our favor. Still not sure how that happened,

I think based off Payton's comments and how aggressively the underneath guys were playing the sideline on the previous play that he was concerned about getting to the outside of the receiver and not letting him get out of bounds at all costs... unfortunately just forgot that you need to protect vertically too!

I was laughing out loud when the Saints had like 8 players out there including the punter at nose tackle.

Yeah, this seems very simple. If it's 3+ points and there are no seconds left on the clock, there's no need to kick it.

Jacksonville should also be able to do a much better job at getting pressure on Tom Brady than Tennessee did.

The New England defense had the second worst yards per rush attempt allowed which also bodes well for Jacksonville, assuming that Fournette is healthy. That's a big assumption though because he did not look to be running very well in the second half against Pittsburgh.

Obviously the big concern is Bortles versus Belichek/Patricia. I don't think the Jags need Bortles to win the game for them however, only not to lose it. As long as he protects the football, makes good decisions and completes the passes he should complete, then the run game and the defence are good enough for them to win.

While I think the Pats will win, I think the game will be much closer than people think.
I agree with most of this. As long as Fournette is healthy I think Jacksonville matches up with us much better than the Steelers did. (And the forecast isn't for extreme cold or snow at this point.) But on the other hand it's still Blake Bortles on the road against Bill Belichick, so I assume he will turn it over a couple times, and if that happens early it could snowball. That initial 9/9.5 point line does seem a little high to me, but I also would just never bet money on Blake Bortles against Bill Belichick.

If you haven't seen Diggs post-game interview (they finally caught up with him I guess, and brought him out of the tunnel to the end zone), do yourself a favor & watch it.

One of the more ... interesting (heh) "give the glory to God" interviews I've seen, and I mean that in a "hey, it was honest emotion" way.

DB just needs to stay upright and he catches Diggs as he goes to the ground. Tackled inbounds, Vikes never get another play off, game over.

Unreal how things turned in that game.

I didn't notice it yesterday, but a ref threw a flag on the Vikings for excessive celebration after the TD.

I was laughing at that when we were watching replays. My first thought watching the replay was "I hope everyone in that direction was paying attention when Diggs tossed his helmet, because that would hurt." Looking in that direction I saw the ref toss the flag.

Surely the expectation of your team, at home, in the playoffs, where they should have an advantage, both in quality and location isn't above board. The expectation that you can beat the Pats after losing to them by a few feet sets the tone, that you should face them again.

As I've said all year. This team is overrated. They are quite possibly the worst Pit team of the past few and clearly played more like a #5 seed than #2 all year long. The team seems to have lost its way, the loss of Shazier notwithstanding, at the professional level, even his loss shouldn't result in the team looking like a poor D1 school on that side of the ball.

The year is over. I'm not really that upset about it, I'm more pissed that the manner in which it ended looks awfully similar to the way it's ended in the last few years, and that's with a loss, where a glaring hole in the team was exposed over and over and over. I'm all for Tomlin keeping his job, however, I believe that he needs to adapt his style and recognize that his primary style isn't as effective as it should be and he should actively be looking to improve himself and his coaching staff.

Exactly what I was talking about yesterday.

I remember years ago the Dolphins not returning to the field in a situation like that so Pete Carroll, coaching the Patriots at the time, just went for two.

They were a top 3 offense all year, Roethlisberger just put up 469 yards, 5 TD's and 42 points on a top 5 defense, but he and the OC are the problem? (Granted, I do think Haley has issues, particularly in their 2 minute drill execution and going away from Bell at times.)

They do have a big decision that Bell is forcing them to make on whether to commit that much of their salary cap to a RB or to save that money to work on their defense, but they also seem loathe to sign outside free agents, and letting Bell go without using the money elsewhere probably would at least temporarily close their window and Roethlisberger does only have X years left (though, he is only 35 and Brees/Brady are still going strong much older than him). Patriots aren't going anywhere, Jaguars seem like they're here to stay a contender (especially if they sign a better veteran QB), but Pittsburgh still looks like a top 3 AFC team, and that pretty automatically makes you a Super Bowl contender imo.

There's no way they are going to commit to Bell. No way at all. I wouldn't. He's simply not worth the money he thinks he is.

I haven't followed it too closely. He does seem like he's demanding exorbitant money, but I also completely understand his point that with the workload Pittsburgh places on him he needs/deserves long term security.

I think they've already offered him top level money, but he feels like he deserves combo WR/RB money, meaning the top paid offensive player in the league. AB is worth more, imo. He has missed so much time at critical points of his career so far, from the suspensions to the untimely injuries. He's really, really good, but man, there are playmakers to be had at RB for a much better price and younger.

Honestly, if you're worried about point differential don't lose the damned game.

The bolded part is enough for me though - the end of that game was horribly awkward and unnecessary.

So apparently minority ownership in the Steelers is pushing to remove Tomlin. I doubt they make a move now, but at least people recognize that he makes some really piss poor decisions. And he often times does not have his team prepared for games that they should win.
