Ravens @ Steelers week 18

Who the FUCK wrote the script for this game?!!! If this was a movie critics would say that was way too many twists and turns, throwing in every imaginable twists known to man.

Just when it looks like it's a sure thing one team would win, something happens and that team makes mistakes that give the other team the in. And on and on.

Until the time ran out. and Ravens were the last. Incredible 4th down play to get into sure FG range. A field goal that would win the game. A team with a history of most accurate kickers. So nobody was thinking the words that Bills fans are so familiar with was even a possibility. "WIDE RIGHT".

They had two timeouts and 12 seconds I'm curious why they didn't try to get a little bit closer, not that it probably would have helped with the way that kick went but you never know.

Just what a shame the Ravens incompetence allowed Rogers to get into the playoffs.

Both teams have always made smart play calls and smart plays historically. None of this was in sight tonight.

Yeah as soon as Lamar went backwards 3 yards I said "wtf are they doing? this isn't a gimme kick."

Can't believe they didn't give it to Henry and try to pick up a couple yards. Make it a 35 yarder instead of a 40.

The Steelers had been selling out on stopping Henry all night, so he might not have gone anywhere anyway. But yeah, seemed like they should have run another play there.

Wow. What a game! I thought the Steelers were TOAST after the missed PAT. Ravens 1-upped that with the missed FG. Crazy! I feel like there must’ve been some kind of weird crosswind up high!

[–] noahm@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

That sure was a football game. I don’t know if it was a good one, but it was wild to watch.

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

[–] MeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yes, and for some reason it deserved a round of applause.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You know they're showing a replay of the missed kick right now that looks to me like the laces were were out.

[–] RandAlThor@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Did they? Damn my local broadcaster went right into news so I didn't get to see the replay. So another error. LOL. perfect.

[–] rovingnothing29@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

The TV guys were talking about how the new kicker had the right stuff; then he missed wide right. It's like pottery.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Pretty good end of the season I suppose. Certainly wasn't boring.

Clearly you never saw the Seahawks Vikings 2016 Wild Card
