Most people on this board seem to agree that our "Referee Gods" that called the game did a good job officiating. (They're in the NFL for cryin' out loud... they CAN'T make a bad call!) But as you read this post, think what would happen if you were the covering official. Would YOU have flagged the holding?

I do agree with the OPI in the endzone negating the TD, but I'm not sure how often that gets called compared to how often it happens. Again, would you have made the call? I don't think that gets called as often as it should, and the SB is not the time to start. As far as the Hasselbeck block, that's literally gotta be the worst call I've ever seen. I mean, that's worse than any call I've ever made myself! (And I wear glasses!)

Bottom line: I think there were questionable calls on both sides. It just happened that they hurt Seattle a little more than they did Pittsburgh.
