I watched the game with my nephew. He had money on the Steelers and was rooting hard for them, but even he said several times during the game that Seattle was getting jobbed pretty bad by the refs. I had to agree with him.
I agree completely. I think the refs helped determine the outcome of this one.
I was hoping to see the Steelers win, but felt the game was tainted.
I don't think Big Ben scored the touchdown. It sure looked to me that he was down.
I also believe you can call holding on most any play, and when the Seahawks moved within scoring position, and then got called for holding... well... that was it for me.
It was disgraceful.

There were quite a few people I was with and myself who totally agree with you and your nephew. Funny, the refs missed the holds, etc. the Stealers did.
