[Roast]

[Banedon]

Special teams is going to cost the Titans this game.

Yep. The Steelers are real close to FG territory now. This game is all but over.

[ELCABALLO45]

HOLY CRAP!

[Banedon]

LUCKY SOB's

[Roast]

Errr....

 

Unless ward fumbles...

[dew1679666265]

Huge break!!!!!!!!!

 

Great job by Michael Griffin!!!

[Banedon]

The guy I'm playing in fantasy this week has Hines Ward, so yay right? No...he has the Titans defense...so he gets credit for a forced fumble too. :banghead:

[Banedon]

Ugh....I need to go to sleeeep.

[dew1679666265]

I love overtime in the first game of the season.

[Banedon]

End you stupid game!

[Roast]

Ok NOW this game is over.

[dew1679666265]

I have to wonder why we're not blitzing.

[Roast]

Yep.

[dew1679666265]

Oh well. It was a great game.

 

The lack of pressure from the front four is not good and why Chuck Cecil refused to blitz from the fourth quarter on is confusing. But overall the team played well against a very good team. Special teams needs to be fixed as well.

[ELCABALLO45]

That is a crazy stat..

 

Holmes in the Superbowl

 

9 catches 131 yards Last TD of the year

 

Holmes tonight

 

9 catches 131 yards first TD of the year

[ELCABALLO45]

Oh well. It was a great game.

Agreed with everything you said.

 

Having to go on the road, against the defending champion is just a terrible break to start the year.

[ELCABALLO45]

Also, I am enjoying Tedy B. on ESPN so far.

Before our Week 7 bye, we have the Steelers (road), Texans, Jets (road), Jags (road), Colts and Patriots (road). If we can go 3-3 before our bye, I'll be very happy (wins over Hou, NYJ and Jax most likely). If we can pick off a win over Indy or the Pats and go in 4-2, I'll feel really good about the rest of the season.

The Tennessee D forced a fumble. Thank god it's Hines Ward so that it cancels out the fantasy points. That's how I would look at it.

I still don't get how the best professional league in this country has an archaic overtime system to decide games.

 

Great game, though.

Completely agree ... the overtime system heavily favors the team that won the coin toss. It's not fair.

[Banedon]

Polamalu has a sprained MCL. Out 3 to 6 weeks. Will almost definitely miss the Bears game.

[cbbryan]

3-6 wks should definitely put him out for the Bears game. That was a good game last night, Pittsburgh escaped w/ a win.
