Re: Here We Go Steelers, Here We Go
I will agree that the officiating was not great, but it was not at it's worst either. There were a lot of "no calls" that went the way of the Seahawks also. One glaring one is the push in the back (clip) of Roethlesburger after the threw the interception and was trying to make the tackle. If that had been called the Seahawks would have started at about the 50 yard line instead of the Steeler 17.<br /><br />The offensive pass interference against the Seahawks on their called back touch was a fair call. Even though it was a "chippy" call, it will, and should, be called anytime it is done right if front of an official.<br /><br />Also, there was a lot of holding on the Seahawks that was not called.<br /><br />Not trying to say the officiating could have been better, but it was fair.<br /><br />Now with that said, I sure am glad my beloved Steelers, and the BUS, got their one for the thumb! Hope Bettis comes back as a backfield coach next year! Did you hear him coaching Parker on the sidelines - and Parker following through on the instructions and running 75 yards for the touchdown!<br /><br />A great end to a storybook season.
