I don't care what happened because it is a W on the win loss column but for people who think Seattle was "gifted" a win when they outplayed the other team is ridiculous. Take the refs away and the Seahawks still win... plain ...[text shortened]... TD which was almost just as bad a call as the game winning interception that Wilson threw.
Green Bay had 22 First Downs to Seattle's 14 and outgained the Seahawks 268 to 238 yards. The Pack was also 7-15 on third downs while Seattle was 2 for 11. That's "outplaying" them?
I've ridiculed Seattle fans sufficiently for their insufferable whining about losing to a better team in the Super Bowl that I do not feel it necessary to revisit it. Here's something for ya:

Originally posted by shortcircuit No wonder Green Bay lost. They had to run their offense on a 200 yard long field AND
they had the substitute refs working against them!!
Nice try homer!!
No, their "touchdown" drive was extended more than once on horrible calls that wouldn't have been made with the regular refs. Meaning they would have barely had 200 yards and less first downs and only 6 points on the scoreboard. One gift for both teams. I'll grant that they still scored fairly if you only count the play they scored on but they shouldn't have gotten into FG range and then the drive was extended again on a BS call once they were in FG range... I would have been ok with them getting a FG since then the hawks still would have had no need to toss a hailmary and still would have won.

What game were you watching? There was one penalty called on that drive.http://espn.go.com/nfl/playbyplay?gameId=320924026&period=4
Originally posted by tomtom232 You heard it here first. Harbomb is screwing the pooch and the Niners will likely lose to more than just the Pats and Seahawks down the stretch.
Wouldn't they have to actually lose to the Pats to lose to more than "just" the Pats?
Originally posted by tomtom232 Well the first bet hinges on the outcome of this game so i'd be betting twice on the same thing... But what do you have in mind?
No it doesn't. The 49ers can lose this and still win the Division. Neither is out regardless of outcome.
