And I do wish your team good luck in the Super Bowl, despite the outcome of the AFC Championship game. The Patriots played the better game, and I always respect that.
Thanks, Tim. And I do think Big Ben got the short end of the receiving stick on a lot of key plays yesterday. He deserved better. I watched the KC/Pitt game and was rooting for the Steelers to come to Foxborough.
Thanks, Don. Like I said: from my perspective it was just one of those games when nothing seems to go right, despite one's best efforts...
The Steelers spent the whole game pushing on a rope in an effort to get something together, and it just wasn't happening -- probably due in part to the Pat's defense absolutely stymying our running game, and Ben's sporadic progress with the passing game. We couldn't even routinely get our place kicker into field goal range like out in KC... And he even missed a point after... Then there was some baffling play calling from scrimmage by the coaching staff... First and goal on the 1-yard line and we end up with a field goal...?! Can't win that way...
*SIGH* Just a really unimpressive showing in the game by the Steelers...
