Default More like you had some paid off zebras. At least 14 points should have gone toward the Seahawks.

That being said. Congrats. The Steelers won, but not by 11 points IMO.

2nd. Finally someone agrees with me. And I'm not a Steelers or Seahawks fan.

Default Don't forget the calls that didn't go the Steelers way, either.

It all evens out in the end, but the team that plays hard enough to overcome even bad officiating usually wins. Pittsburgh did it at Indianapolis a few games ago, and that was one of the worst displays of officiating ever. Why couldn't Seattle overcome the perceived imbalance? The better team won on Sunday.

Default I don't recall any bad calls costing the Steelers 14 points.

Once again, the officials alter the tempo of the game.

Default There were two Seattle fumbles that weren't called, IIRC.

The overturned TD was clearly correct - your receiver extended his arm into the chest of the defender 5 feet away from the official. He has to be slicker than that if he wants to push off next time. I don't know what other play you think was a guaranteed 7 points, but I do remember you missing two FGs all on your own...

Default The other 7 points was when Rothlisberger didn't cross the plane.

And Hasselback was contacted on the fumble. Either way, Seattle lost and I'm disappointed. They dropped a lot of passes and missed the FG's. I just thought Seattle needed more than the Steelers.

Default The ball crossed the beginning point of the goal line, which means that it's a TD.

It can be by the slimmest of margins, which it was, but the ball was over that point. It doesn't have to be completely over, or even into the painted part of the endzone. Just the front part of the goal line itself.
