You're right. Some of the worst officiating I have ever seen. They blew one huge interference call, and that interception that was ruled a non-interception by the refs was criminal. The Steelers deserved to win.

That Pats have a much better case for beating the refs. Like literally

That defense pass interference call was the absolute worst I have seen in a while

Someone needs to look at that ref. There was absolutely NO WAY that the ruling on the field could have been overturned. Even Esaison and Sharpe on the post game show were stunned at the call. Not to mention that wasn't the only bad call.

It was karma that the Colts missed that last FG. A bit of poetic justice.

"Steelers had to beat the darn refs, too."

No joke!!

That "incomplete pass" call was just so completely WRONG!!

And the "color commentators" that cbs had on were just so completely biased towards the Colts that it was sickening! Thank goodness that cbs was true to form, i.e. they never get anything right!

As of this point this weekend, I'm 100% on my picks. Let's see if da Bears (still Suck!) can keep my record intact.
