Besides that, Everything that I saw the refs call, I saw happen on the field.
You are as blind as they are. It was not a few calls, it was MANY calls including ball calls on the Rothlisburger TD, the two TDs that Darrell Jackson should have had and so on.
That is a 21 point difference in points. Not to mention the non-hold our O-lineman was called for that brought back a reception on the Stealer's 1, Matt hasselbeck being called for an ILLEGAL BLOCK when he was MAKING A TACKLE, and the list goes on and on.

Unfortunately for Seattle fans, they absolutely are. The push off on D. Jackson was the right call based on watching it at game speed. The replay showed that it was not a forceful pushoff, but at full speed after watching a few more replays, I don't have a particular problem with it. It's purely a judgement call and a good acting job by the Steelers defensive back. I have no problem with this one.
The holding call was not a good call, but whenever an o-lineman gets his hands up above the shoulder, it WILL get called as holding. He knew better.
With the other D. Jackson potential TD, are you referring to the one on the sideline that he was called out of bounds on? If so, what was your beef? I was very curious about one aspect of that play, but found some clarity in the rules that made it obvious it wasn't a TD.
The odd blocking/tackling call on the INT return is beyond me.
The Stevens incomplete pass call was perhaps the worst of the game. Who's to say they wouldn't have recovered that fumble and scored a TD had it been properly called?
Seattle's lack of clock management skills was their downfall regardless of what calls the received.
Like I said, I didn't have muhc of a rooting interest either way and found some of the calls very odd, but Seattle screwed up enough things to not blame an official.

At least he MADE the tackle! Where was Hasselbeck when Willie Parker torched the Seachokes for 75 yards?

Hasselbeck doesnt play defense. he was on the sideline wishing he could have made an illegal block.

Dude...pass the pipe. Catch some balls instead of dropping them...keep your feet in bounds and maybe, just maybe your team will win one sometime.
And it was one touchdown with a push off, not two. Read the rules of football and we can debate it. Last time I checked, both feet need to be in bounds.
