Congratulations Steelers fans!

I am with the poster who said that it is not your fault the officiating was what it was. Sometimes it just doesn't break our way. This time it never broke our way. Disappointing, but that was clearly how everyone thought it was going to be anyway, so it's not a surprise I suppose.

Enjoy the win and I mean that sincerely.


Have a good evening all.

While I don't agree the officiating was bad really even if it was I'm not bothered. I remember the season where the league apologized to the Steelers FOUR times for blown calls that cost them games (starting with the OT game in Detroit on Thanksgiving which created the "Bettis rule" on coin tosses), 4 losses which cost the Steelers a playoff birth. So if some bad officiating helped us out here I think it's just some balance.
