Steelers: 21

That had to have been the most god-awful rendition of the National Anthem I have ever heard.

Seahawks should of counted on them making a trick play like that in the 3rd or 4th quarter.

i already owe my steelers friend 10 bucks after last season when they lost to the pats in the afcc, i bet him 10 bucks that the steelers wouldn't make the superbowl next year. Just my luck, they go and make the superbowl, then win it. it was nice to see them win it though, a great way for the bus to end his career, and a good reward for cowher after sticking in there all those years.

Well whatever. If it werent for the Redskins, this season would have sucked. Luckily the Redskins made this one of the most memorable of my life. This morning when I woke up, the "what-ifs" went through my head about how we should be there today.

Skins 2005 was AWSOME.
NFL 2005 was lathargic.

that was the worse officiated game i've ever seen. offensive pass interferrence call was crap, ben roethlisburgar did not get the ball across the goal line, that holding penalty on seattle's right tackle was crap (seattle would have had the ball with a 1st and goal from the 2) , that chop block called on hasselback was a bad call.
i think it was pretty obviouse that the league wanted pitt. to win the superbowl, hell, even all the damn commercials had pitt. players in them practicing how to say "i'm going to disneyland".

The Skins would have gotten the same treatment from the refs too. I'm no fan of the Hawks. I was in the stadium when the Hawks beat us. The Hawks got robbed here.

I could be wrong about it but I'm fairly certain it was the other way around and it didn't seem to me that it was just steelers until the 4th quarter.

you may be correct but i don't remember seeing any seahawks in that commercial until the second half. me and a few other poeple even started talking about it in the first half, we were like "damn there aint no seahawks in these commercials".

Re: Official Super Bowl XL Game Thread
 

i'm just very dissapointed in this superbowl. seattle, in my opinion, outplayed pitt. but the refs put a stop to all most every single seahawk positive. the refs gave that game to the steelers.

Re: Official Super Bowl XL Game Thread
 

Maybe it was a good thing we didn't make the SB. I'd be irate to see us lose like this. Pitt was handed this game. Anyone think we would get any better treatment? Then I would have to read from King and Pastabelly how "fair" the game was officiated on top of that. At least Seattle doesn't have to deal with that.

Re: Official Super Bowl XL Game Thread
 

there were a couple questionable calls but the main one's I see being complained about where actually called as the rules dictate. Sure that offensive PI was pretty touchy, but he obviously pushed off a bit with his right arm even though he didn't need to. A couple holding calls were touchy, but there r a couple of those a game that seem like they could have easily been non calls. and that Hasselback illegal block was absolutely retarded, but I think people being upset about the result on behalf of the seahawks should be more upset about the play of their secondary and Stephens being unable to hold onto almost every single pass his way.
