I don't think the Steelers fans would be complaining about it at all if they felt secure about the victory. Whether they'll admit it or not, I think most of them wish they had won without so much help from the officials.

I know I would have been embarrassed with the victory if the Colts came back and won the game against Pittsburg. But in reality there is nothing to be ashamed about. It was Seatle's defense who let Pittsburgh get within an inch of the goal line. If a ref makes a call and gives them a touchdown, so what. Who allowed the other 99.97 yards?

Not to mention, what's saying that Pittsburgh doesn't score on 4th-and-an-inch on the next play, anyway, even if the original call had been that he was marked short (and not overturned by replay)?

If it was just one bad touchdown call, the Seahawks fans would be over it by now.
