2 Minute Drill

I'm still trying to figure out how two professionals, with as much experience as Holmgren and Hasselback have, can so totally screw up the end of both halves in a game as important as the Super Bowl.

Anybody, especially any coaches on the net, got any ideas or comments as to what went on?

Seattle fans are actually whining about the Super Bowl as much as Cane fans whined about the Fiesta Bowl. Funny stuff.

The few 'hawk fans that were on here weren't the ones pitching a bitch. Its a bunch of twistedly bitter Bengal/Brown fans and a crackpot who thinks NFL games are fixed(but watches and cares who wins anyway).

You are right though, they sound exactly like cryami fans after the Fiesta Bowl. Only difference is the Cryami fans had a more legit argument than these guys do.

I do not agree with that statement at all.

I think overall Pittsburgh got the breaks in the Super Bowl. I don't think the officiating was bad (except for the clip on Hasselbeck), but all the calls that could have gone either way went to Pittsburgh except that one fumble earlier in the game that was ruled an incomplete pass by seattle.

As far as the Fiesta Bowl is concerned...Ohio State got jobbed. There was ONE questionable call in the game that went Ohio State's way, and we all know what that was...there was definitely some holding go on right before ABC's camera angle went to the close up...so ABC made it look like a bad call, plus it didn't help with Fouts screaming, "BAD CALL! BAD CALL!" Pretty unprofessional there. But that's ABC/ESPN for you. Other than that call though, the holdings that weren't called, the completions that were ruled incomplete, and the PIs that WERENT called. Those ALL went Miami's way!

I agree that the Fiesta Bowl was more unfair to us than them.

My point was just that Miami had one call to bitch about. If it goes their way game over. To me thats at least a more logical argument than several calls that were close but correct and still left one team with plenty of chances to recover.


Bottom line is both groups were guilty of being sore losers but again, the group whining in this thread aren't even seattle fans. I can give a guy some more slack for having a twisted view when he's crushed by his team losing. Those doing the majority of the bitching here seem to be the type who go around looking for shit to piss and moan about.

lol ur funny

If it was the other way around and Roethlisberger got flagged for "clipping" a Seattle DB or Hines Ward had a TD called back because he "pushed off", BuckNutty, iambrutus, AJHawkFan, and co. would be up in arms saying how Pittsburgh got screwed. It's easy to accuse people of whining about a loss when you're a fan of the winning side.

Even though I hate them, I don't really care that Pittburgh won. They were certainly the most impressive team in the playoffs, beating the top 3 seeds on the road and all, but alot of those calls were just bad.
