Donovan Darius should be suspended for as long as Robert Ferguson is out. That was one of the worst cheap shots I've ever seen, and Ferguson could've been killed.
Ferguson caught a pass going over the middle. Darius, instead of trying to tackle him clotheslined him across the neck. They were running 15 mph each in opposite directions, so it was like being hit at 30 mph.
His helmet went one way, his chinstrap another way, and his head went a third. He was temporarily paralyzed from the waist down, couldn't breathe, but somehow he held onto the ball...

In the only game Dillon didn't play this season..........they also lost Law in the first quarter. We will see what happens in the playoffs!
I think it is pretty sad that a team is held to five yards rushing just because the starting RB is out of the game
Come on, give the Steelers some credit. I'm looking forward to the playoffs. If the Steelers meet the Patriots it should be a good game!!!
Just shows how one player can make a difference.
Yep... hmmmm.... Ben was stellar once again this week & Tommy... well he goofed!
18/28 & 316 yards... still doubting?

If one player can't make that big of a difference, why are the Eagles so worried???

I was really hoping for a punt return or and end around for a score to go along with his TD catch and pass!!!

The Steelers had some help from the officials Saturday. Tiki Barber got tackled 5 yards out of bounds and they didn't call unnecessary roughness on the Steelers. Instead of 4th down and a punt it would have given the Giants a first down. The roughing the passer penalty against the Giants that gave the Steelers a first down instead of making them punt was a chicken $hit penalty and it kept the Steelers touchdown drive going. This is the NFL, they're not playing touch football. And the play near the end of the game when the Steelers intercepted Eli Manning should have been pass interference, or at least illegal contact since they were more than 5 yards beyond the line of scrimmage.

I loved the TD pass! He wants to play QB so bad, but he's also so willing to do whatever the team needs him to do to win!

Thank you for sharing that with everyone. Bad or missed calls by officials? I didn't think such things existed.

No, the Steelers are a much better team and the Giants still haven't tackled Jerome Bettis but the officials made some bad calls, and some obvious non-calls that helped decide the game.

NEW YORK (AP) - Jacksonville safety Donovin Darius was fined $75,000 by the NFL on Tuesday for a hit across the neck of Green Bay's Robert Ferguson that left the wide receiver temporarily paralyzed.
How was it? what was the score? How many TD's did Peyton throw?
