Me too!!!
I can't wait for some of that 6/22 for 60 yards in the air awesomeness to show up. Or maybe some of that 2/8 for 69 yards magic he displayed at KC the first time they played. Heck, I'll even take his season best 21/40 for 236 yards. :lr

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

:r:r:r

I predict he will rush for more yards than he passes for...and that it won't be much! :r

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

As long as Reddman can hang on to the ball and the O line protects Ben I'm not too worried

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

A few of my friends (diehard Steelers fans) are making the drive to Denver this weekend for the game.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Nice!
Remember guys, he who laughs last...
He has had a rough couple of games, but the ones before that, he was truly unbelievable.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

ftfy.;)

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Well, only in the last 5 mins of the 4th was he unbelievable, I'll give you that. But, good enough to win.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

In all honesty, with pride and passion aside for my home team...this game will likely define the rest of Tebow's career. If he comes out and lays an egg I think he is done as starter for the Broncos or anywhere else in the league.

God forbid (for us) he plays great and wins the game...then he will clearly have made a statement. He's playing against the best defense in the league, the best secondary in the league, and a defense that allows some of the least points in the league.

Either way...we can only wait and see!!! Love me some Pittsburgh playoff football! Should be fun!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I hope it doesn't define his career, he's young, with a long ways to go.
I don't even get to watch the game, gotta work :sad This one has been on the books, long before we knew there was gonna be a game. Maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll get to see the last 5 mins ;)

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Game day ladies & gentlemen! Our run to number seven starts today!

LETS GO STEELERS!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I'm hoping the game will be well in hand by half-time, allowing Tomlin to sit Ben and get a little healthier for the Pats... he'll need to be at his best.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Couldn't agree more! Let's hope it works out the way! :tu

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I'm bettin our defense will step up and take control of this one.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

It doesn't look good going into the 4th quarter.


:(


Chris.....

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Huge play right there...if it stands :tu

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Exciting Game!:tu

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

WOW!!!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

And here we go!!!! Go Broncos :tu 3:42 to go!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Tebow time...

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Go pa!!!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Wow, what a game!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Very good game, no matter who wins.....as long as it's not the Steelers ;s

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

wow!!!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Wtf?????? Wow!!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Glad those new rules kicked in!! LOL :tu

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Yes!!!!! Tebow!!!! I am a huge fan of Tebow now! :r ;s

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Congrats Tebow and the Broncos....Good Luck in New England, believe it or not I will be pulling for ya...

Crushing defeat...but it is what it is. Tebow made huge plays in this game and they deserved to win, as much as it pains me to see my beloved Steelers come up short.

Tomorrow will be a somber day in the Steel City...

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

would say that the Pats will kill em' but I thought the Steelers would also, so they have a shot I think.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

WOW...what a game. Pittsburgh looked very BLAH!! Congrats to the Broncos and Tebow.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Well, as expected, I didn't get to watch any of the game, but I did get to listen to the last bit. Overtime IS Tebow Time! What a great win.
I guess if this game is gonna define Tebow's career, I'm okay with that :D

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Not to offend any Pats fan who may read this, but as life long Steelers fan I have grown to hate the Pats ever since the early 2000's with all the defeats we have suffered in the playoffs at their hands. Personally, I don't think the Broncos have a chance, but I will be pulling for them. I am actually happy for Tebow and the Broncos, never thought they had a chance today...

Any Given Sunday as they say...

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Couldn't agree more with you...

I think he proved himself a ton in this game...For now he has certainly silenced many critics, myself for one...

Good luck next week Bob!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Tebow exposed our secondary for what it was. Congrats to the Broncos.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I have a terrible confession to make.

I thought this was going to be the worst playoff game ever played. I thought it would go to OT, but it'd be a 3-3 tie. I figured it would be either a terrible fumble or INT by Tebow, or Ben throwing a pick while he was distracted by his leg falling off.

I was wrong on all counts.

Somehow, some way, Tim Tebow learned how to throw a football. The Broncos failed to self-destruct in the 2nd quarter. Ben Roethlisberger proved he was the toughest SOB playing QB in the league, and brought the Steelers back from the brink of elimination. And then, the miracle happened. The prettiest spiral I have ever seen Tebow throw caught by Demaryus Thomas, then run for an 80 yard touchdown.

Instead of the worst playoff game ever, it may have been one of the best its been my privilege to watch. Maybe not as good as SB XXXII, but easily as good as the last Broncos' playoff win over the Pats.

Congratulations to the Steelers and their fans on their great season. Not every team can come back to force overtime after being down like that in the playoffs, and they certainly played like champions.:tu

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a cigar to smoke.-(P

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Early on I didn't think it was going to be much of a game either but boy was I wrong. Both teams played well and made a great game of it. Congrats to the Broncos but well played to both.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Tebow only completed 10 passes... but somehow he can win with crap stats...

Tough loss man... I asked for tomorrow off work to grieve, but my boss said no. :(

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I think Big Ben cost them the game again :(

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

I dont think so... injuries on the defense (no starting D lineman playing after the 1st Q) played a huge part of it... I mean srsly denver scored 20 pts in the second Q!!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Crap stats? 10-21 for 316 yards...first passer to throw for 300 yards against the Steelers this year. While he may not be pretty, he is a winner.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

yeah crap stats, all those yards are after the catch... when have you ever seen a playoff game where the winning team only had 10 completions?

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

After the catch? Come on man...90% of ALL quarterbacks passing yards are "after the catch".

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Still crap man.. :sl


They lost and I'm grumpy. :p

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Not everyone has the cannon and can "chuck" the ball 70 yards...ala Michael Vick.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Light up a stick...you'll feel better. Being a die-hard NY Mets fan...I feel your pain and let me provide you this little solace..."there's always next year"!! :D

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Well said brother!! :tu

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

:r:r mets :r

Just kidding Mac...back to Steelers conversation...that was one crazy game, just be lucky that the Steelers even had a chance at the end!

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Hey hey now, you're starting to sound like you're consoling a cubs fan :p

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Exactly...at least you guys have SIX championships. :bh :bh

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Fun thread to catch up on! ;)

I can't stand the Steelers, and even I know the answer to this trivia question! The answer is Ben Rothlisberger in Super Bowl XL when he went 9-22 with two INTs. What do I win? :r I don't know if that's the last one, but it certainly is a good one to point to for this thread.

Re: Steelers fans check in...
 

Good point Joel...I remember that performance well.

BTW...why so hateful against the black and gold my brotha??? Just curious cause Philly and Pittsburgh really don't have much of a rivalry...
