Jesus Christ

That's all I can say about that game. I thought the Jets game last year aged me. Ha. That last 45 minutes was defibrulating. First, you have the worst call in NFL history, as Polamalu makes the pick, he has the goddam ball, and the grossly incompetent ref overturns it even though the video evidence DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS WHAT HE SAYS MADE HIM OVERRULE THE CALL.

Then Joey Porter road-grades Manning 2 plays in a row, we have the ball first and goal, and Bettis fumbles. And as Harper runs back we're all thinking he's gonna score. And Big Ben makes an incredible tackle to save the TD, the defense holds just enough to let the prettily earringed Mike Vanderjagt honk a FG.

It would've been a sad thing if Bettis' last play had been that fumble. It's not. We go to Denver. One more game before Detroit. Now, we shall party, and we shall party hard.
