Steelers/Colts
Monday, January 16, 2006
This was one of the best football games of the year...Peyton waving off the punt team, the Bettis fumble, Polomalus 3 "almost" interceptions, Vanderjagt missing the game tier - WAY left.
I would have cried if the Colts had run that fumble back for the game winning TD. The Steelers deserved to win and Boomer was right on the mark in his post game remarks. (ie: 1. there's no way you don't run the ball with Bettis in that situation...no one in their right mind would predict a fumble and 2. Troy's interception was legitimate.) Ben Roethlisberger may have made the play of the year by making that tackle after the Bettis fumble...which is so impressive because a quaterback trying to tackle someone on a turnover...is usually a joke and it wasn't just an easy tackle. He wrapped his legs up textbook. I like when teams come with a game plan and execute it.
