Credit to the Packers for coming out for the PAT. Unlike Rogers who was busy pushing press and camera men away.

Really??

They didnt win it...it was given to them, and there has never ever been a more apparent case of such..

And what was Rogers supposed to do? Come out and block the PAT?

Jeez.

I think the NFLRA colluded with the replacement refs so that they could be so awful as to give the NFLRA the hammer now in bargaining. It had to be a team like the Packers, or Steelers or Cowboys getting the shaft to get something done.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Well if I am one of the normal refs I am asking for a lot more all of a sudden as the NFL basically has to give them what they want...

[Bertuzzied]

haha. I have never seen a worst offensive pass interference in my life. It was like he crosschecked him in the back. haha

[trackercowe]

The only time in the last quarter where a penalty should have been called and they completely missed it. Brutal, brutal reffing.

With that crowd there was no way they were going to reverse that call. The refs would have been mugged the instant they left the stadium.

I was hoping McCarthy and the Packers wouldn't come back onto the field and would boycott the result, but that type of action could have resulted in a seven figure fine I'd imagine. Like Tirico said I wouldn't have wanted to be one of the 11 Packers willing to go back on for the extra point.

Yeah but the pathetic calls gave your team a win that didn't happen in reality. It's not a matter of that just being a bad call, it was 100% incorrect. That was a GB interception and a call any other direction is due to gross incompetence. Seattle got gifted the win though so WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[Yeah_Baby]

Is it wrong that I'm glad I sat down to watch the entire game tonight? I feel like I've been a part of history.

[transplant99]

McCarthy is great...wouldnt go down the path of ripping the refs, said he would talk about the game but said he has never seen anything like it in his entire career.

Good stuff.

Seattle defense:
More sacks that Rogers had ever had against him in a quarter and a half.
Over 25 minutes on the field in the 2nd half and didn't break outside of a dubious 1st down call at the Seattle 1 which gave GB a new set of downs
Holding GB inside their 5 to get the ball back with a minute to go.

For the supposed vaunted GB offense, I say they did pretty damn good and gave the offense a chance to win.

Seattle had 8 chances to throw it in the endzone in the last 2 minutes, and went 1 for 8. The offense would've lost that game for Seattle if the call went the other way, not GB doing anything to win it.

Mike McCarthy, "I've never seen anything like that in all of my years of football.... Most unusual game I've ever been a part of."

[PeteLFan]

What a disgrace. The NFL is unwatchable and goodell won't do a damn thing about it.

That last play would have to go down as one of the top 5 most bizarre plays in one of those stupid countdowns ESPN/TSN airs all the time.

I don't know what you're talking about, the last half of the game made for incredibly compelling television, car crash/building on fire type of compelling, but in terms of ratings/exposure this game will be talked about for a long time.

Seattle's D played great, no question and gave them a chance but the refs gave them the win. Lots of credit to Seattle for sure, but no way in any feasible scenario did they farily win that game.

Its beyond ridiculous now and now the NFL has potentially watched two high profile games ruined by officiating and this can't go on anymore.

Well other than, you know, scoring more points.

Its a joke and everyone knows it...i cant wait to hear the spin from the NFL tomorrow. That will be one hilarious espousing.

Ed Hochuli just called his accountant to let him know that his funds will soon be topped up, and then knocked 200 pushups out before bed.

[Finner]

Personally I think the games are far more entertaining with the replacement refs.

@GMillerTSN: I won't bother my followers with too many tweets this week, I know a lot of you will be busy getting ready to referee NFL games.

Aaron Rodgers "it was awful. Look at the replay. thats all I'm going to say about it".
