I want the Seahawks to win, but I feel like the Steelers will strangle their offense.

i dont really care. The steelers knocked the broncos out, but i dont hate them. Seahawks had the easiest schedule in the league but i couldnt really care less. Just hoping for a decent game.

Steelers win 28-20

As long as it is an interesting game, I could care less.

not that it really matters (kind of does with the coin toss), but why did the steelers get home when the seahawks had the better record?

Its not home, theyre in Detroit. But Steelers fans make up the majority there.

i know. But they got to pick theyre uniform..sounds stupid but theyve won like 6 straight road games so it doesnt hurt. And the seahawks get to pick the coin toss. Trivial stuff but a friend answered the question.. guess they switch it back and forth between AFC and NFC every year.

yes you do. How can u not care if the steelers lose? they get the second worst draft pick for NOTHING.

But that strategy worked a couple weeks ago so go for it..

pretty good first half.

The end of the second quarter was just retarded..alexander lost his shoe and caused a confusion to make them call their second timeout a little early, then hasslebeck is just dicking around with the time moving and then pitt called a timeout with 13 seconds left? then of course that made them miss a 54 yard field goal instead of getting some more yards. Very charger-like sequence (except the chargers wait for the 4th quarter to do it).

This game did not excite me that much to be honest. I really don\'t care for either team and it just isn\'t that exciting. Now, if it was the Giants vs. the Eagles (which I know would never happen due to conferences and stuff), that would be so interesting around by me :)

From someone that wasn\'t rooting for either team the Steelers got all the calls.  Never seen more bullshit stacked on one team.
Title: Superbowl winner...
Post by: Living-In-Clip on February 05, 2006, 08:06:26 PM
Huh?
How do you figure that?
Infact, if anything, I\'d say the bullshit calls was about even.

Hell, don\'t forget these three things.

1: Shaun , Seattle\'s main weapon was held under a 100 yards.

2: They missed two field goals.

3: Dropped passes. A chronic problem for that Seattle offense.

dont forget the way the seahawks handled the end of both halves. They couldve gotten at least a field goal in the second quarter, then the way they tried to get a score and then have to get an on-side in the 4th was a joke.

The only calls the steelers got was the big ben missing the endzone by an INCH..which i think it was 3rd down, i really doubt they wouldve missed it on 4th down. Even if they did the hawks wouldve been stuck on the inch yard line. And the pass interference in the endzone was shaky.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on February 05, 2006, 08:44:15 PM
It was a 3rd down and that one is questionable. Certain views it looks like he did and some he didn\'t. It is just one of those things.

The pass interference, I don\'t think was that questionable. Good call, infact.

With all that said, the Hawks had plenty of chances to score and simply failed to do so. You can\'t drop passes, not manage the clock and miss field goals and expect to win. And let\'s not forget, the Steelers did go through three tough teams on THE ROAD during the post-season and won. They was simply the more complete team.

Post by: Bozco on February 05, 2006, 08:49:34 PM
Wow, the pass interference in the endzone was TERRIBLE.  Just to name one thing.  Not saying the Seahawks would have won if things were more even but it would have been a much better game.
Title: Superbowl winner...
Post by: Living-In-Clip on February 05, 2006, 08:51:04 PM
You want terrible?

Since when did.........

Catching a ball....Tucking the ball......Two feet down...Turning with the ball.......Not count as a football move / posession? Because all those things happened during that not called fumble. Now that was terrible.

plus i bet u made that judgement after seeing it in slow motion?

That completely takes the judgement away..not because u get to look at it 5 times but because slow motion doesnt show the speed of what happened. When i first saw it, you could really see darrell jackson get a huge separation from the CB and made him stop moving. But slow motion just made it look like jackson put his arm on the CB while getting some room to make the catch.

On a 3rd down if I remember right, which would have been damn near the punt that ensued.

I\'m just saying if you look at all the calls it seems one sided.  Hell I was at a place with more people rooting for the Steelers and even they agreed.
Title: Superbowl winner...
Post by: Viper_Fujax on February 05, 2006, 08:55:11 PM
polamalu\'s int wouldve been the same as a punt? a punt would have put them back to the 15..maybe run it back to the 30 if its a decent return. i think polamalu was at the 50.
Title: Superbowl winner...
Post by: Blade on February 05, 2006, 09:06:49 PM
I\'d say it\'s probably going to be the Steelers.

Thats not what he\'s talking about.  I assume he\'s talking about a play that happened in this game with the Seahawks.

And no, watching the game I clearly thought the call was bullshit from the beginning.  Hell the ref didn\'t even pull the flag until the Steeler started complaining.

Post by: clips on February 05, 2006, 09:21:23 PM
i didn\'t see the whole game i was in and out of it..wasn\'t really excited for this one really...but i did happen to see that pass interference in the end zone...and i gotta say that seemed shaky...another call i seen was some type of holding call against the seahawks as well which clearly it wasn\'t....but then the seahawks were shootin themselves in the foot in some plays as well..
 
i should\'ve tried to watch the whole game because from what i saw it just seemed like the ref\'s were favorin\' the steelers...guess i\'m really in no position to say that tho since i didn\'t see the whole game....oh well...my boys will be there next year and will they will surely make it to be one of the greatest superbowls eva!...:fro:..

The refs didn\'t decide the game, the players did.  No way you can complain about the refs, none of who\'s calls were THAT bad, if you\'re gonna miss 2 FG\'s, manage the clock that badly, and drop that many passes.  The players decided this one, not the refs.

Pretty sure that I did all that stuff first, because I\'m cool like that.

God  it feels good to be a Steelers fan...

/jumps on bandwagon so that he knows what it feels like to have a team win the Superbowl.

:p

You can say the  seahawks didn\'t deserve it cause all that, and I never said the outcome would have been different.  I just didn\'t like the one sided calls.
Title: Superbowl winner...

Ok, you don\'t think so, I got that.  It\'s just funny that EVERY single person I\'ve talked to tonight about it thought so.  That coming from a bunch of football fans that don\'t give two shits about the steelers or the seahawks.

Post by: ddaryl on February 05, 2006, 11:03:03 PM
That was another completely crappy ref\'d game.

I\'ve lost considerable faith inthe NFL. After years of watching NE get fluff calls, we now witness another team be given questionable calls.

that was just piss poor
Title: Superbowl winner...
Post by: Living-In-Clip on February 05, 2006, 11:13:08 PM
I never said there wasn\'t bad calls, but come on. This whole post season was plagued by bad calls and it just wasn\'t for the Steelers. You act like the Refs handed the game to the Steelers and they didn\'t. Did the fail to do their job? Yes! But they failed on both sides of the balls. I honestly don\'t think this is an issue of them siding with one team over the other, instead, I think the issue is a matter of them not having any clear understanding on what to call and what not to call.

whatd u guys think of the commercials?

the fed-ex dinasaur one and and magic fridge were hilarious. The one where the chick gets tackled is kinda funny.

Dont think there were any other memorable ones.

Post by: cloud345 on February 06, 2006, 01:56:56 PM
I was rootin for the Steelers on this one even though i really didnt care.

The Seahawks could have and should have won the game, it was both their and the ref\'s faults. Ben\'s TD was not a TD but I understand the call, couldn\'t really see the ball in his arm so there was inconclusive evidence. The Offensive pass interference was a tough call, the recievers arm did extend and thats usually an automatic penalty so that was understandable. The holding that ruined the seahawk\'s drive which turned into an INT was a horrible call, and the drive most likey would have ended in 7 for the seahawks if they made the right call. Also the Seahawk\'s kicker has to make those two kick, or at least the second one.
