My concern is, after watching the steelers/cardinals game yesterday in its entirety, if we can beat the refs? I lost count of the bad calls in Pittsburgh's favor before the half. Seriously. Anyone else see the game?
It was so incessant I thought the refs were about to yell at the steelers for how obvious they had to be to keep the game close. Like "guys we can only do so much over here".
A couple of particular note:
-helmet to helmet contact on qb called when Vick was hit by a facemask to his shoulder area (never touched his helmet at all)
later Carson gets hit hard helmet-to-helmet and no call (ball is long gone too)
-Steelers defender hooks then hits receiver obviously well before ball arrives, no flag and the ensuing interception stands, despite being directly caused by the illegal pass interference
