Assessment so far, ok game, not much drama, ok commercials, and a bland HT show.

cthomer5000 · 02-05-2006, 08:17 PM

Roethlisberger absolutely lost his mind on that pass. 10-14 point swing there. Un-freakin-believable. The Seahawks clearly have all the momentum now, and the Steelers playcalling is getting suspect.

Dont know but I can tell you one thing:
Whoever leads by the end of the 4th wins the game.

The game was called early in the 3rd.

biological warrior · 02-05-2006, 08:18 PM

Seattle is making plays when they need to.

Yup. If they lose, Big Ben wears the goat collar.

Craptacular · 02-05-2006, 08:20 PM

Oh no, Stevens catches it, and a flag takes it away.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:20 PM

ANOTHER play wiped out by a penalty.

biological warrior · 02-05-2006, 08:21 PM

Dah! These holding plays are what will ultimately kill Seattle.

Craptacular · 02-05-2006, 08:21 PM

This series seems oddly familiar to the Steeler's one late in the first half.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:22 PM

Ehh, horse collar anyone?

Eaglesfan27 · 02-05-2006, 08:22 PM

Finally, Matt makes a mistake!

GrantDawg · 02-05-2006, 08:23 PM

Game saver if stands.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:23 PM

Block?!! WTF, he was making the tackle.

Looked like one to me, but only on the replay.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:23 PM

Seriously, what are these refs watching?

miami_fan · 02-05-2006, 08:24 PM

Somebody want to explain the penalty?

DaddyTorgo · 02-05-2006, 08:24 PM

wow. that's quite the swing there too

AlexB · 02-05-2006, 08:25 PM

How can that be a block below the waist - it was a TACKLE

Didnt look like a low block either.

Coffee Warlord · 02-05-2006, 08:25 PM

Who the hell calls that kind of penalty on a freakin' quarterback trying to make a tackle?

That one was weird, but in going for the tackle he also took out another player below the knee. I don't see how they call that a block, though.

Dutch · 02-05-2006, 08:25 PM

Wow. The ref's *seem* to be in the Steeler's back pocket. They come out at just the right time with those flags...

Eaglesfan27 · 02-05-2006, 08:26 PM

Well, Al offers a reasonable explanation of what the refs must have been thinking.

Eaglesfan27 · 02-05-2006, 08:26 PM

That being said, I think that was the first really bad call by the refs tonight.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:26 PM

Ugh, this postseason has been so hard to watch with the refs screwing someone over in every single game.

It was a ref that threw the interception?

Tekneek · 02-05-2006, 08:27 PM

That was a horrible call. Who in their right mind thinks the QB, who just threw an interception, would illegally block the man running right next to the guy with the ball? He was obviously going for the tackle.

Have yet to see it called this year, even though it was added to be called a penalty this year.

Ball Game.

ouch. that hurts. dare i say ballgame?

TroyF · 02-05-2006, 08:28 PM

I hope to God the refs at least gave the Seahawks some Vasoline before the game.

This is beyond ridiculous. The holding call was horrible and the "block" call was beyond horrible.

The NFL needs to clean house. The reffing in the playoffs has sucked. And the reffing in this game is reprehinsible. There is no excuse for this.

Craptacular · 02-05-2006, 08:29 PM

Enough momentum changes this half???

No holding either.

Amen to that.

miami_fan · 02-05-2006, 08:30 PM

Back to the interception. I can't see how the ref even announces that play. On the interception return, the QB who threw the INT is throwing an block?

DaddyTorgo · 02-05-2006, 08:30 PM

(at least i don't think they've made this move yet have they? they really fucking ought to!)

Nope, the Seahawks can blame themselves. They've been the better team throughout and consistently have shot themselves in the foot.

But for a ref (ANY REF) to give a 15 yard penalty on a tackle should be immediate dismissal. These guys are so far over their head it isn't even funny. And it's been decidedly one sided when it comes to calls in this game.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:32 PM

I really hope SOMEONE rips into the NFL after this game for the crap they call referees this postseason.

kingfc22 · 02-05-2006, 08:33 PM

Matt you were down, but nobody touched you. *hits head on desk*

Fumble.

edit: He was touched.
