Just thought I would throw my two cents in here. Not a fan of either team, just hoping for a good game. It has not turned out to be that way IMO. The refereeing has been so bad and one sided I actually expected it to be the Seahawks versus the Eskimos. The Steelers have been given this game to them, without a doubt. Every time Seattle has made a big play, there has been a very questionable call to bail Pittsburgh out. Its been terrible. Actually, brutal.
Seattle has a touchdown and a cuple of big plays taken away. Pittsburgh never got the ball across the goal on their first touchdown, but get the touchdown awarded anyways. Seattle marches their way down the field to get into position for the go a head touchdown and they called for a BS holding penalty that leads to an interception. Then they screw the call on Hasselback making the tackle (real easy call). Then they miss a holding call in the middle of the field that lead to the first down prior to the gadget play. Its made what could have been a great game absolutely predictable to watch.
This officiating crew is completely useless IMO. Absolutely terrible. I swear, they arrived in on a short bus from the Pittsburgh school district.
