2GOLD 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 Maybe Baltimore can challenge Pittsburgh next year, but I very much doubt that. They are an offense away from doing so. Actually they have the same problem the Patriots will have. The linebackers have gotten old. They just have the added problem of no quarterback and soon no running back. I just love Willie Parker breaks a 75 yard touchdown run...and is never seen again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted February 6, 2006 Did Cowher and Holmgren end up shaking hands or what? It seemed like Sgt. Slaughter was left in the cold there. Yeah the Walrus was really being quite an asshole throughout the whole game. Something else that's interesting is both Cowher and Holmgren are on the NFL's competition committee...

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted February 6, 2006 No, I don't think this will have anything to do with instant replay, if anything they might need to expand it even more. Or just really cut off the ties with the referee's association and bring in better replacement refs that'll be controlled by the league and not unionized.

naiwf 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 So does anyone else think this was the death nail in instant replay? Yep, which means even more horribly botched calls next season. I just can't believe every analyst is towing the company line on those horrible calls. Is Jaws gonna get hit with a fine for calling a spade a spade on officiating? Awful game, awful outcome. Revisionist history though will ensure that Bettis, Cowher and Big Ben all go to the HoF 1st ballot because of it though. Bleh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 I don't think it is the end of replay, but I think refs are going to be told to stop using it as a crutch. Ben's TD run was a bad call, but if it was overturned, the ball would have been on the 1" line, so I'm sure Cowher would have just sent Bettis up the gut to score instead of kicking the FG.

I didn't mention once that USC was robbed by the refs in their game, even though there were clearly some calls that weren't exactly fair. When there are bad calls in the first half, they still have the whole fucking game to score. It's not an excuse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 So would someone like to tell me what their definition of offensive pass interference IS? You had a receiver, IN FRONT OF AN OFFICIAL, use his arm to stiff arm the defender BACK a full step (watch the defender, he gets pushed BACK a full step) those making it impossible for the defender to go for the ball and you DON'T see that as pass interference. So what exactly IS your defintion? I have zero love for the Steelers but I want someone to explain to me HOW that is NOT interference? He pushed off a stationary defender to get open in the end zone. I will not argue the Big Ben touchdown cause I found the call horrible but it was third down so who knows what happens. Still a bad call but if no touchdown, it's on the half inch line and the Steelers would have went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of these refs need to be bitch-slapped, and the rest need to be fired. Did you SEE the way the Seahawks played this game? They had zero sense of control, horrible play-calling, shitty clock management and a coach who seemingly gave up after the Ben TD call. Stop blaming the refs, and realize Seattle lost the game.
