There weren't even that many bad calls in that game. The pass interference call was iffy, but either way I think it was close. I think D Jack pushed off, that's just me, whatever the case, Patten got called for less on a TD catch against Denver so that call is out.

The big one is the holding call when Seattle had the big play nullified. That one was obviously a bad call, but you never know, the refs get the number wrong all the time, it could have been on someone else on the line.

The Big Ben TD: there was no doubt that you stay with the call on the field, there wasn't enough evidence to overturn it. I think he got in, but I don't know.

The Hasselbeck low block was total BS. That was a terrible call, but it was only 15 yards. That's not that big of a deal

What I think is lost in all this is the fact that Seattle came to the biggest game of their lives and couldn't deal with a little adversity. It was a tough game, but you're supposed to be one of the best teams in the league and then a few calls don't go your way and you can't respond? That's just sad. It pisses me off that Holmgren's crying about it and it's retarded if people think that the game was set up to screw Seattle.
