The only call i can figure that was bad was the one holding call.

That holding call kept Seattle from taking the lead with 12 minutes left in the game, if that wasn't a momentum killer I don't what is. It's funny how many game breaking plays were called back when Seattle had the ball, ( TD called back, 2 long punt Returns, Catch on the 1 yard line ) but not one Pittsburg big play called back..It's too bad that after the game nobody was talking about how great a game it was, they were talking about the Refs.. Kind of sums it up

It did happen to the Steelers against Indy. The Steelers won anyway. Can you say "superior team won"? I didn't think so. Let it go.

Hey guys, the game is over.

For Steelers fans, it's great..

For Seahawks fans, it sucks...

As for petitions, why bother?

The NFL is not going to re-play the game, or admit the refs may have made mistakes..

These so called "mistakes" are amplified because of the re-play rule.

That's why Ben's TD was not over turned. The side judge called it a TD and the replay could neither prove or dis-prove the call. Therefore, the calls stands.

Steelers fans, celebrate.

Seahawks fans, great season.

Those complaining about the refs, GET OVER IT.

It's just a game! Besides as it was stated earlier, right now everyone in the NFL has no loses....

the bravo sierra over the superbowl, and the supposed poor officiating, is starting to get rediculous. at some point in time people have to accept that the steelers did what they had to do on the field of play to win the game, and the seahawks didnt. two missed field goals, and extremely poor clock management, as well as an inability to make plays, receivers dropping passes, stepping out of bounds, etc. cost the seahawks the game, NOT the officials. if a team cannot overcome adversity on the field, then they lose. if they cant accept that, then they shouldnt play the game. if the fans cant accept that, then they should take up needle point.

Im a steelers fan. Proud of it. We got ripped off in the indy games sooooo much. We won that game. What does that say? We were like Roushracing said "the superior team". The ONLY play that I would say was wrong is when they called the clipping or what ever on the seahawks QB. We won the game is over we got the trophy and it is done with. If the seahawks were better they would have won!!!!
