discuss packers vs seahawk week 3

[Ryan...]

Yes. Frequently.

Then you're blinded by your love for your home team apparently.

I am no real fan of the Seahawks. Don't mind the packers though. So let's just put it to rest. It's getting old. The call was made, whether it was right or wrong. It's not the first time there's been possibly questionable calls in sports.

If I recall, back in 2006 in the Super Bowl with Seahawks vs. the Steelers, there were some questionable goal line calls that caused the Seahawks to lose. Call it karma if you want. Point is that they saw it how they saw it, they have their view and we have ours

So essentially what your saying is that the game should've ended at halftime because the Seahawks were playing so good the Packers could in no way have won the game? Ok, gotcha, makes perfect sense now

You do remember that after halftime the Packers got their offense rolling and was actually beating the Seahawks, right? Yeah, there were bad calls, lots of them. On both teams. Your argument that the Packers lost because the first half sucked is so unbelievebly stupid I assume you must be trolling. In case you aren't:

1. The call DID lose the Packers the game. What part of that do you not understand? If the 'Hawks aren't awarded those 6 points, they LOSE. Therefore, that call WON them the game. Its actually very, very simple.

2. Offensive passing interference does not happen on every single hail mary. Why? Because any intelligent player knows that will end the game automatically if called.

You aren't good at the logic thing. Simply because that call was on the last play, it decided the entire game? Not quite. Like I've already said, if the phantom DPI call on chancellor isn't called, the packers wouldn't have even sniffed a TD on that drive. Then if they wouldn't have gifted the spot to Rodgers, they wouldn't have had a first down and likely would have kicked for 3.

The fact is that blown calls have decided many games before and will decide many games in the future. It is the nature of having humans officiate a game. Since everyone seems to think that the Packers are such a better team, they had opportunities during the entire game to not put themselves in the position to lose on the last play.

And let's not forget that this was a WEEK 3 REGULAR SEASON GAME. It's not like they gave Vinny Testeverde a phantom TD to cost a team a playoff birth. It's not like they blatantly blew calls in the superbowl to cost the team the game.

Cry me a fucking river that one of the nations darling teams lost to the team from South Alaska when they were supposed to blow them out (again, IN WEEK 3). I hope the packers have a great team and they meet the Seahawks again in the playoffs so that great offense can get punched in the fucking mouth again.

Oh, and to your second point: Go look up what Larry Fitzgerald said about the OPI... it is regular practice and everyone knows it. If you are more than a casual fan of football you know that PI happens all of the time on those plays and is never called. The players know it too and operate within that paradigm. Until that changes a WR would be stupid not to use it to his advantage

[Ryan...]

I'm gonna end it right here saying this:

You believe what you believe, I'll believe what I believe. We'll go about our lives wonderfully from here on out, remaining cordial in our online encounters.








** edit, I dont think most people were expecting a blow out. Seahawks have a damn good team on defense, and you'd have to be crazy to underestimate what Lynch can do to your defense. I was honestly expecting him to run for 150+

[Thizzelle]

Last night real refs still made shitty calls or no calls, like i said they are all shit

[Mr_Tripp]

Not a fan of either team but that call was fucked up.

[flyboyx]

this shit is funnier than the game. packers suck. they lost. haha! excuse my comments for seeming callous and uncaring. time to move on.
