Sounds like the seattle players are complaining today, but it still would not have affected the outcome of the game. Seattle had the ball longer than the Steelers and were unable to turn over points...or even field goals without weather conditions. And had the colts won, of course the league would not have come out and said the call was a mistake. What are you getting at?
Being that the NFL came back and said that it was a bad call, what's your logic?
But then you admit to this:
And had the colts won, of course the league would not have come out and said the call was a mistake. What are you getting at?
And as a Pittsburgh fan, you would have been just fine with that? Of course you wouldn't have been. Yet, you expect Seattle fans to suck it up and quit complaining about the bad calls that went against them.
By your own admission, the league isn't interested in publicly admitting to these things and showing fairness if the team affected ends up losing the game. We can only expect an admission from the NFL if the team the calls went against actually wins the game in the end.
In other words, your argument that the NFL made that statement in the Colts/Pittsburgh game means absolutely nothing when it comes to fans/players having legitimate complaints about the officiating. Just as their silence in the Pittsburgh/Seattle game doesn't necessarily minimize the legitimacy of Seattle's complaints.
