I'm just glad that Bettis will be able to retire with his work culminating in a Super Bowl victory...not that it makes him any less impressive, being the fifth best runner of all time, but it's hard to not be impressed by that.

Heinz Ward got the credit he deserved, too...

Ben Roethlisberger, however...well...this game showed that he was not as infallible as the last few games, but he was still of at least...average...caliber.

Finally...those teams, when questionable calls weren't flying, were really closer matched than I thought they were, which gives me a new amount of respect for the Seahawks.

I dont think its definite that Bettis is gonna retire now, he was talkin to Bill Cower about maybe not having to go to all the practices each week or something like that.

The way i see it, Seattle has been robbed from the title. The touchdown they scored that was declined because of passinterference, was a bad call from the ref, and the Steelers touchdown on the other side wasn't even on the endzoneline. When you look at it in slowmotion, you can clearly see that the ball never reached the endzone, in fact...he pushed the ball a little forward so that it appeared the ball was on the line. Another bad ref decision.

The final score was 21-10, but only because of bad calls. Pittsburgh should have had 7 points less, and Seattle 7 points more, which would have given us a 17-14 Seahawks victory. [img]graemlins/givingspeech.gif[/img]

I agree with you on the pass interference call, but I dunno what happened with the Steelers TD, I was working at that point.

I figured the game to have more points overall, and that it would be closer. If you nullify the one TD that Holmgren was grimacing about at 1/2 time, it would have made no difference anyway. Except for maybe the spread, which I never knew anyway. In discussing the game with my cousin last night, I was undecided as to whether the offences didn't show up, or if the defences were just that good.
