Mexican't, I think.
You and SteveO have bad memories. Big Ben’s first play on that last drive was a 15 yarder to Heath. Resulting in obviously a first down. Next play was a 5 yard pass to Hines. I was fully confident that Ben was going to lead them down the field for glory. The next 3 passes seemed to happen in mere seconds,and it was over in an instant. Easily the most disappointing drive for me in all the games I’ve watched as a Steeler fan.
I would like to be included in the bad memory listing. I would tell you specific incidents but I can’t recall what they were related to.

Ben could've & would've changed where he ranks All-Time if he comes back & wins that game...He'd be top 15...He's probably about top 20-25 All-time

You are correct. Had to rewatch the last drive and sure enough Heath caught a pass to start the drive.

There was no doubt in my mind that Ben was going to drive us down the field to make it interesting. I was like a slap in the face when it didn't happen.
Steelmann corrected me on the last drive. Ben hit Heath for a 1st down pass to start off the drive. Then it all went down hill afterwards.

If he is I hope he gets caught and deported.
There are a lot of Mexicans that are Steeler fans. I believe Cowboys and Steelers 1 and 2 from what I had read some time ago.
Coolie would feel right at home.

Coolie is a Mick, as Irish as they come, he's probably peeling potatoes as we speak.

I would think the Raiders are #1...That's all you see here in SoCal...Their Latino/Mexican fans represent in Raider gear ALL OVER though California NORTH AND SOUTH & they are in VEGAS now.
They got ALL the homies...

You made me look it up.
Actually I was wrong.
The Steelers appear to be number one in Mehico.
According to AI

The Steelers actively engage with their Mexican fanbase through watch parties, fan camps, and Spanish-language content.
- Expanding International Home Marketing Area (IHMA):
The Steelers are one of the nine NFL teams with expanded rights in Mexico as part of the NFL's IHMA program, which allows them to focus on more events, social engagement, and potentially a regular-season game in Mexico, according to Pittsburgh Steelers president.

Assuming that one was a straight up football game to be won or lost by the better team, I put that one squarely on HCMT.
A HC’s job is to manage and develop the assets of a multibillion$ sports franchise. On that drive, a real HC would have sent Wallace deep on every snap. What was left of GB’s secondary would have followed. Instruct BB to pump to MW then hit one of the intermediate receivers. On every remaining play. Run out the clock. Win. Heath was so open on those plays he set up a 3 card Monty table in the middle of the field. Backyard Ben was fixated on MW, who was covered by GB’s entire depleted secondary and some of their fans. The HC’s job is to manage BB’s lazy fat *** to get the win. He didn’t. He can’t.
As I’ve said ad nauseam, and I won’t go on here, HCMT is a stupid man. He doesn’t understand even the basics of the game. No ‘Xs & Os’. No strategy. No game plan. No adjustments. Surrounds hissef wit ‘coaches’ dat won’t rock dat boat. HCMT’s only ‘strategy’, if you will, is ‘my guys are better than your guys’. Ghetto. Hip hop. The league howls.
Back to ‘assuming’. You can always tell who is going to win the big dance by the players’ demeanor as they come out of the tunnel. Our heroes were told they weren’t winning that one before they left the locker room. It was that painfully obvious on all their faces. Not even HCMT could have screwed that up.
Disclaimer: IMHO, BB’s body of work speaks louder than his, er, physique.

I read an article today naming the Ravens as division winners.
I also saw that the same article picked Denver to win that division. I don;t see this as a big surprise, Kansas City is fading. If the league takes away the favoritism and makes them play straight up,…….. Denver could easily take that division.
Salute the nation
