Ugghhhh having to listen to people talk about football makes me wish I was a born an Ethiopian.

This. I should have stayed home today.

We won? Awesome!

Also, this.

The refs didn't give up 8 sacks in the first half and get overall dominated by the SEA D.

I like the new NFL better than the old NFL.

Common thought among Seahawks fans.. Did you forget that your team also did absolutely nothing offensively other than Tate's only legit TD in the first half? Or how the Packers ate up almost the entire second half on offense, scoring on 3 huge drives? The Packers overcame their first half and won that game, that's what good teams do. Seahawks D is more than impressive, no doubt, and once their offense clicks they'll be a top 5 team probably.

Games aren't lost in the first half, remember that.

I'm not a football guy, so I'm a bit unbiased.

Your comment is retarded. Sure Seattle was great the first half, but the packers dominated the second half. If the jersey's were reversed, and that wasn't your team that won, you know you'd be crying bloody murder for the refs.

[Mlarsen]

If the roles were reversed and GB won because a bullshit call there would of been fucking riot in Seattle. Yeah our offensive was weak. Second half the defense couldn't get there shit together. There was zero pass coverage allowing the Packers to move up the field easily. Yeah I think Green Bay should of won but, they didn't. The fact they didn't call offensive pass interference and there inability to judge who had possession was just bad officiating.

[Thizzelle]

it all started with that horrible PI call on jennings when the receiver was all over his head (offense pass interferance). Then that last call was shit.
So the refs made up a new rule, if you catch the player who caught the ball = your catch. WTF.
It goes ball to jennings chest then tate underneith with a arm on it. So dumb. And the ref who called TD had way wrong angle on it. Also they missed the Tate shove before the jump. I don't like either team but it was straight garbage call and they confirm it upstairs WTF, they are to blame just as much. Also the real refs fucking suck too, they make shit calls like this all the time. They all suck ass.

I most certainly would not. The "catch" at the end of the game wasn't even the worst call. There were many bad calls throughout the game, and this one gets blown up because it happened to the packers. I wrote a response to a retarded packers fan earlier:

Of course Packer fans, and the nationally slanted media, will see this call as what cost them the game. That is understandable.

What is wrong with that theory is the fact to say that this call cost them the game is to say there were no other questionable, bad, or missed calls.

They ignore the fact that the Seahawks were called for Pass Interference on a play that clearly was a well defended play. That penalty gives the Packers a first down they didn't deserve and kept their only TD drive alive. Without that call the best they get is a FG.

There was also an overturned spot that gave the Packers a first down. A spot that should have never been reviewed and was called right on the field. This again would have meant FG and not TD.

If either of these is called correctly then the Seahawks win the game with a FG and there is never a hail mary play to spark controversy.

There was also a punch thrown that should have been an ejection. The officials screwed up because they let the player stay because of offsetting penalties. The ejection does not get wiped out because of an offsetting penalty. Huge mistake.

The list is endless, including blatant holding calls going uncalled against the Packers in the second half. So no, that last call did not cost you the game. Getting dominated by the Seahawks for the entire first half cost you the game. Being unable to gain a single yard rushing (outside of the one Rodgers scramble play) in the first half cost you the game. Being unable to complete a pass down field, causing the offense to throw nothing but short routes cost you the game.

What cost you the game was being unable to generate a first down, and in fact lost yardage and nearly turned the ball over, on your last possession. Grind out just one first down and the game is over.

So Packers fans, wake up and smell the Swiss Cheese, you got beat by the better team on this night. No shame in that, we schooled the Cowboys the week before, but there is shame in crying about a call that you didn't like even though it was the correct call.


Oh, and everyone stop bitching about the OPI on tate on that play. That happens on EVERY fucking hail mary play and is never called.

[Eric535]

what about the bull shit "defensive pass interference" call when it should have been offensive on rice? or the call about the roughing the passer on the interception. im trying not to be such a homer about the game and have a bias, but its really hard not to when it was officiated in such a bullshit manner.

[Erik]

That was a terrible call. Hands down. No ifs ands or buts! Seahawks lost that game.

[Swanny]

That was a terrible call. Hands down. No ifs ands or buts! These kids have guts.

Lets go to moe with the results. moe!....

[TurboJake]

I'm confused...
This makes any bit of any real difference..... How?
