Arizona has deserved the penalties I've seen. That late hit on the punt holder was just STUPID!

Really im not a cards fan but they started out bad but came back with alot of momentum. Its funny that these weak roughing the passer calls are going one way. or the ref was sure it was a fumble not an incomplete pass and they had to review it.


tell me what side the refs are on. the games not over yet but not looking good for the cards. besides the commercials suck this year.

I've never seen a penalty on running the holder!

Why are we all still watching this?
The sooner this ends the better

I've got the under/44.5

Weak roughing the passer call? Dansby PUSHED Roethlisberger. That takes action, it's not a matter of not being able to stop. Once you make an action seperate from your run your argument for momentum is lost.

Did Holmes run on the field and hold Warner? If so he should get a lot worse than a holding call.

The Cards should have paid the refs like the SEC teams do before their BCS bowl games. It isn't always enough to overcome the crappy SEC play but it seems to help more than it hurts.

I'm with you on that one, but the ref may not have seen the stumble. It happens. Inconsequential anyway.

Didn't look that way to me. Meh. Even if it wasn't intentional it still coulda been called. Happens all the time. To say it wasn't a penalty or SHOULDN'T have ben a penalty is a little weak IMO.

If Arizona has any hope of getting back into this, they need to get the ball to Fitzgerald. Take some risks and throw the ball up for him. It's absurd that they're just giving the ball to James for the short yards when they're down 20-7. The coaches need to wake up and realize this isn't a close game anymore.

Im just ranting because it seems that im the only guy that doesnt want the steelers to win. Either way I can care less. I just want a good game not another go thru the motions games. SEC? seriously the best conferance over the last decade if not two and you say that?

Yeah, it's amazing how much of a non-factor Fitzgerald has been. Biggest possible game, you go with your big-time players.

He's been double-covered and coaches are scared to throw the ball to him.

Have they shown the GI Joe movie trailler on CTV? That looks AWESOME!

The only guy that wants Arizona to win?

Did you hear the media this week, they couldn't stop coming up with a million reasons why the Cardinals were going to win. The poll in this very thread has the Cardinals picked over the Steelers.

Cards have only themselves to blame. They lost this game even before the kickoff. All those things they did to win the previous three games they've thrown out the window. They head coach used to be a Steelers coordinator so he's scared of the 'mystic'. Cards are really playing scared even down by 13.

I'm just surprised they've been so conservative. Take one or two big shots and I guarantee Fitzgerald makes some plays.

Exactly. Fitzgerald is taking one for the team tonight. They got it to Breaston and Boldin early, but not so much lately. They need to.
