OK....

ATLANTA - So Atlanta kicker Michael Koenen had a 56-yard field goal that he made wiped out by a timeout and then had his next one -- the real one -- come up a foot short. But he got run over by Troy Polamalu so he was getting another chance to win it with a 51-yard attempt.

Then, from his rocker on the sidelines, Morten Andersen was summoned instead. If Koenen was hurt, it didn't look it on the sidelines. He had his helmet on before overtime and was being consoled by teammates after apparently being passed over.

Anyway, Andersen was about 5 feet short from 15 feet closer than Koenen's previous attempt.

If Atlanta loses this game - - and OT's about to start with Pitt kicking off -- Jim Mora will have some 'splaining.
