The replays clearly showed the ball breaking the plane before he was downed.

I can see how you would argue that Ben's touchdown couldn't be overturned based on the replay; but you folks saying he clearly broke the plane are just seeing what you want to see. There is no single frame of video that shows the football breaking the plane. How you go from that to a "clear" touchdown is interesting.

You seem to be crossing from "naked eye" to "replay", yourself.

It may not be clear to the naked eye, but it IS clear in the replay.

I am not "seeing what I want to see". I couldn't really care less, although I'm OK w/the Steelers and my husband is a big fan. I've disagreed w/him MANY times as it is; if anything I'm a Ravens fan. And I have no problem w/the Seahawks and it's nice that they've "broken the mold" sorta speak and are at this level, finally. I'd be happy for them if they won - I always sort of feel for the "underdog". Although, not as much as for a historically Good team who can't seem to bring it home in the end (and hence, I can finally stop cheering for the Red Sox) - which would be the Steelers.
