Maybe Holmgren can then explain how the refs tricked his team into dropping passes, missing field goals, and squandering time during the end of the second quarter and the end of the fourth quarter....
hehe, those refs are ticky indeed....
Sorry but Seattle was plainly mediocre.
But frankly, so was Pittsburg.
Pittsburg just happened to bust off ONE )and only ONE) great run during the entire game, and a couple "trick" plays.
add these three fairly decent plays to some truly bad calls, and you have a winner, or in this case, one team simply wasn't as bad as the other...IMHO
Pittsburgh only played poorly in the first half. They looked pretty good in the second half. Seattle was putting up a fight.
