Thanks for posting. As yooper said, it's still tough to think about this game. Mike and Mike talking about the super bowl today on the drive in got my blood boiling again after I had forgotten about the game for about 12 hours.
That said, I muscled my way through reading this. Hawk was in a tough spot and it's not easy to know this in game speed, but from the pictures, it seems pretty clear that House could have caught Ryan before the 1st down.
I've been skeptical of Peppers for much of the year, but the review of his sack really showed how crafty he can still be. I don't know how much is left in him, but 1 more year doesn't seem like a terrible idea.
Interesting albeit a painful read.
