Watching it a few times [URL]http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2013111707/2013/REG11/lions@steelers#menu=highlights&tab=recap[/URL] , I think the fake was the original call from the get go. I think all those failed bubble screens finally "paid off" in a win today. And I think that in the remaining games the bubble screen will be more successful, because now the opposing D has film about when the _fake_ bubble screen resulted in a deep TD.
Here we go, Steelers!
