but honestly, the officiating was atrocious :sad2:
and so was the game, it just seemed boring to me for some reason...
Great post.nigel said:I actually dont think the officiating was as bad as a lot of Hawks fans do today. I think the ref made the right call on the Ben TD... there wasnt conclusive visual evidence either way, so the call stands. And as much as I think the pass interference call on Jackson was ticky tacky, there was contact. But the illegal block on Hasselbeck was complete crap, the phantom holding call on Sean Locklear that negating the pass to Stevens on the one was crap, and Ben certainly did not get that timeout called before the clock hit zero.
I wouldnt have minded the ticky tack calls so much, except that the Steelers werent getting called for any of theirs.

dg1979us said:The officiating was terrible. The steelers safety instigated just as much contact on jackson while jackson was scrambling to get open as jackson did on him. If that call is going to be made, which it shouldnt, it should have been offsetting calls and replay of down..
The thread in your quote box is the wrong thread. The answer to your question would be nothing. Nothing at all.Puck said:what does that thread have anything to do with this one ?

RollTide said:Two of those calls really were not that bad. The call against jackson was probably the wrong call. He did not push off enough to get the flag but it was a tough call. Looking at it in slow motion it doesn't look like much of a push and therefore not a penalty but at regular speed it's not hard at all to understand why the offical called interference. Jackson extended his arms, created substantial distance from himself and the defender so the ref called it.
