Clock and game management inside the 10 were terrible.

Still had our chances--bad kickoff return and two first downs--we lost. I don't think were the inferior team but we did not win.

Did Rex expect to get a quick 3 and out? I just don't get that.


He trusted his defense to bail the team out again, who also had good momentum after the safety. I'm not going to fault him for doing that.

looking towards the off season, we got some major decisions to make


Plus we have the salary cap back in place so some people will have to go. This was supposed to be the year to go to the Super Bowl and we ended it with a half-:censored: showing.

HAH! Understatement, sir!

We also didn't make them pay for turnovers and didn't make our first tackles on defense count. Just a really tough game to swallow to end the season, especially after making it a game in the second half.

Yeah, but you may as well take the chance. You either put yourself back in the position the Jets were in anyway, or you have the ball and a chance to score.

I guess you're right. The thing is that if we did stop them, we'd be much farther back after a punt or at the 20 off a touchback.

I guess many fans will have different opinions on it. I think we could definitely agree there were bigger faults in the game than that decision.

Tough loss... that TD before the half killed us.. looks like sanchez arm was going forward, but we didn't get the benefit of any call.. pitt was alllowed to hold and play dirty and we were getting penalized for matching their style of play.

Sanchez was great in the second half, as was edwards and keller.. Holmes showed up big as well.. our defense shut them down... tough loss.. we are a young team, and we will be back next year... I hate watching Ben throw up his BS passes, after he runs around for 5 minutes because the defensive player can't slam the QB to the ground.. NFL just needs to put a red flag on the QB..

I hate this loss..

GO Jets!!

I definitely agree the fumble call hurt us and was bogus IMO.

We have a good offseason to look forward to - hopefully we can add a big guy on the OL to replace Slauson, or get ourselves a good safety.

You must know when Ed Hochuli is reffing a game, expect BS calls for the home team.
