I had taped the game (is that an outdated term now?, I guess I should say recorded now since VCR's are no longer relevant) so Mrs. J and I could watch it tonight. Man it's tough to go through the day and not see anything in the media about the game, and I'm a news hound. I saw the start of some headlines before I quickly looked away or flipped the "page" but I got the gist of who won.
It was really interesting that the Steeler headsets suddenly switched to a local radio station, even the announcers made a little something of it. I'm pretty convinced the Pats have been cheating in one way or another since Belichick took over. Too bad really, Kraft had built a first class operation and now I've lost all respect for the entire orginazation, including Kraft, I doubt I'm the only one. Sure there will be a lot of haters who hate them more now, but even tho they've been the Steelers bain? bane? for the Steelers, I always had respect for 'em. No more. There entire run has been blemished and an asterisk should be placed beside all their SB championships.
I pretty much knew how this game would end up, I figured Beady would pick our DB's apart. They suck. I was kinda pissed that the Steelers didn't pass as much as they should've, run first and second down, pass on third, gimme a break. They finally have a pretty elite passing game and they didn't use it. I knew the only way we had a chance to win was put pressure on Brady and air the ball out. I don't remember seeing any knock downs or even any hurry's, pretty piss poor for a front seven full of mostly first and high round draft picks. I can't beleive they haven't addressed the backfield at all, they royally blow. If this team is going to go anywhere, the pressure on the QB better pick up and the offense better open it up as well, that'll be the only way the Steelers make the playoffs this year, otjerwise I'm in for a long season and that'll really suck.
