What do Stealers fans think of....

[jcdavey]

These are all valid points, all on plays that were brought up either in the game or afterwards several times. The Harrison return was a great play, but there was many Stealers holding on the return. Should have never been a td.

LMAO

wow , pure hater

[COBurgher]

Lets start with the above questionable plays that Fusion contributed to the thread. This I assume would explain guilt? Also, was Big Bens td really a td against the Hawks? The replay was obvious to everyone but the refs apparently.

Dude claims that plays were called the wrong way AFTER REVIEW and you call that proof? I call that a conspiracy theorist.
Ben's TD vs. SEA.. questionable? Sure. Obvious one way or the other? No way.

[COBurgher]

you're not calling steeler fans fairweather are you?

cause that would be seriously retarded lol

+1
Fairweather = half of my neighborhood in Littleton that wrote their dear Donkeys off early in the season only to jump back on the bandwagon when they started winning with Tebow.

[JJBroncoFan]

this is wrong, holmes td catch was perfect as several replays showed

the final play was warner holding on to the ball too long, his own damn fault

that was one of the best sbs ever


pats fans still ***** and moan about eli not being ruled in the grasp lol


people just love to whine

Perfect? I wouldnt go that far. Tough to call during the moment? I will give you that. There was no way that was going to be overturned, just too close. As far as the final play, who cares if he held it too long, a fumble in that situation is game ending. It should have been reviewed, end of story.

Good gawd, jcdavey.. is this the kind of moronic stuff you have to deal with on a regular basis in the AFC West?

LMAO that call was so obvious it was ridiculous. Either the ball crosses before he is down or its not a td. He was down, it wasnt crossing. Nobody thought that call was right, except Stealers fans or course.

yes but we have a few charger retards who make this kind of crap look logical

every fanbase has a slight pestilence problem

Every fan base has fairweather fans, to say otherwise is retarded.

The Seahawks game okay that's questionable


But the Cardinals game that was definitely the Steelers win without ref help

In the OP, I asked about the Seahawks game. The thread kind of took a turn to the Cards game amongst other things. I thought then and still do think the Harrison play was a great play. However, I do believe if it was the Cards that got that INT, the holding would have been called. That of course is just opinion, if some disagree I am fine with that. I personally do not think the refs gave that game to the Stealers, but the Seattle game? It was ridiculous, mostly just wanted to hear a Stealer fan admit it.

[coolio2244242]

Wait, we're really going for a NFL conspiracy thread here?

The most annoying thing in the world are NBA conspiracy theorists. When a big market team like the Lakers win, it's because the game was fixed, but when the Mavs beat my Heat, it's because "the Mavs were already hosed in the 06 playoffs" (seriously, someone sid that to me).

anyway, this thread is ridiculous. The Steelers won their SBs, by, OMG, BEING BETTER than the other teams (though, not by much). Next you're gonna tell me the only reason the Bruins beat the Canucks was because the game was fixed.

[Steelers_x6]

The fact that most believe the refs have GIVEN them atleast one of their Superbowl victories? Specifically I would like to hear about the Seahawks game. Mostly because by the time the game is over tomorrow you will all be gone, and we dont have enough time to cover every time the Stealers have been bailed out by the refs.

I bring this up because every Stealers fan I have ever known is always yapping about the SB wins. You bring this up and they get all upset and dont want to talk about it. Are Stealers fans proud of this history, do they ignore it, believe it is not true? Make no mistake, this is common topic around playoff time amongst fans, albeit not Stealers fans. Discuss.

sour grapes ???


so you think the seahawks should have been allowed to cheat ??

those calls were all blatant penalties. seahawks are sore losers . they should have blamed their players for making stupid mistakes on the biggest stage.

QQ is all i can say QQ

people just love to whine

Bingo. That is the answer to this whole thread.

I'm not going to sit here and deny that there weren't screwy calls, but seriously, have any of you guys been watching the NFL in the past decade or so? Have you not noticed that the refs kind of suck in general?

I think it was poorly officiated, but I don't think that's the reason Seattle lost. They did a lot of things wrong, and not every single call was bad.

How do I usually handle a topic like this? I usually just let it go any more. I don't know what specific response you're looking for, but this is a topic that has been beat to death on multiple forums since 2005. The whole conversation is kind of redundant and irrelevant by now. And no matter what I or anyone else says in opposition to your opinion, it's not going to change your opinion on the matter...so why bother.

I think the SB against Arizona was worse.

Three notable plays were clear and were called the WRONG way after two of them were reviewed and the last one should have been but wasn't.

1. James Harrison's INT TD; his arm was clearly on the ground before the ball crossed the goal line.

2. Santonio Holmes' GW TD; he only had one foot down in the endzone, yet after a lengthy review, they called it a TD, even though anyone with eyes could tell he only had one foot actually on the ground.

3. Arizona's final play (fumble); on the TV review, it showed that Warner's hand was going forward and it should've been an incomplete pass, but it was never reviewed (it was under 2 minutes left).

All that seems really screwy to me.

I won't get into the Steelers/Seahawks Super Bowl because that was the worst officiated NFL game I have ever witnessed.

THANK YOU... I believe the other one was on his cleat
