Shit, last couple of plays if they get it off quick enough and go OB.

Wow, what an ending. Though Warner was going to get it off with a trademark skid too, but no. What an end!

Can't believe that play didn't get a review. To me it looked like a pass attempt. As a neutral, great game.

Great end to the game. They barely bothered to stop the game towards the end, that adds to the drama. I just wish they'd speed it up a little

Great entertainment though. Can't beat sport for drama

Credit to the Steelers. They run a class ship there. I sure wish Jerry would look at their model and use it for his. Maybe Dallas would stop underachieving every fecking year.

Holmes seems like the likely choice for MVP. 9 catches, 131 yards and 1 touchdown. As well as that incredible play.

Even though my team wasnt playing, my stomach is going crazy.

Comiserations to the Cardinals, and to you Mr Marcello! It was a great game, and with the Steelers defence so deep, i honestly thought the cards would snatch it.

However, a superb catch in a vital moment by Holmes won it. A deserved moment to sum up an epic game! Fitzgerald is sensational though, picks it out of thin air.

Congratulations to the Steelers, played well, and with a 100yard INT return to end the second quarter!? Epic.

Sums it up really. Epic, epic, epic.

That game, regardless of shows, breaks and the like - is why so many people are looking into the NFL.

Great summary, mate. Out of interest, what is your team?

meh, that last call made me lose all faith in the nfl officials

it was clearly a uncomplete pass, so the cardinals should have had another passing chance
I thought the Cards were done hard all night by the refs. That said it would have been near a fifty yard hail mary effort to win.

They must have had about 115 yards of penalties against them! Incredible comeback, incredible game. Worth staying up for, even though I'll probably miss school tomorrow.

Pre-season should shorten to 2-3 games and extend the regular season to 18 games. The Super Bowl should be played on Saturday night with the Pro Bowl in between the conference title games and the Super Bowl (which it is starting next year). Hopefully the league will start rotating the Pro Bowl.

Patriots, look at the last page!

And I know. I hate waiting for the season to restart! Even resorted to watching the Open Days last year, and the combines!

Probably would have been knocked down or picked off but with Fitz and Bolden you just never know. And there's always the possibility of a defensive penalty that could put the ball at the 1.
