what about the personal foul on the Steelers which was bull because the guy was standing over the AZ player and the AZ player punched him in the nuts.... there are enough rules and safety nets in this game, with instant replays and challenge flags and all that. AZ just got beat at the last minute. they made a good effort coming back after that run back to end the first half. AZ just got out played on both sides of the ball and the Steelers deserved to win.

Didn\'t see the shot to the balls... if that\'s true, I retract my comment.


i don\'t think anyone really did because they didn\'t show a replay but i def. saw and upper cut to the junk that\'s why he shoved him back down.

all in all i thought it was more exciting than i was expecting. and it was over at what 10:30..... did anyone else notice the lack of commercial interruption. A clear example is the last 2 minutes of the game. 2 minute warning, 3 time outs and couple time stopping plays and maybe 2 commercials. normally they would have to slow the game down to make sure the advertisers get there moneys worth. for this simple fact i found the game more bearable to watch.
