One of the absolute worst PI Calls ever.

 

[happjack]

How much does he that ref have bet on the saints.

 

[DiehardPanther]

One of the absolute worst PI Calls ever.

Awful call that gave them 7 points.

 

[ScrantonicityIII]

One of the absolute worst PI Calls ever.

Even my 6 year old said he didn't push him. It was that obvious.

 

[Fk_Pitt]

Let’s see what Gene Scaratore says about that one.

 

[Pitt-Chains]

One of the absolute worst PI Calls ever.

Equal to notre dame...

 

[pittbb80]

Given the way they called the ravens game and how this one has been called so far I’d say the Steelers are screwed

Just an all time horrible PI call given how much hand checking is allowed most time s

 

[BFo8]

Equal to notre dame...

Notre Dame was worse.

 

[King Of All Message Boards]

That may have been one of the worst calls ever - not just worst PI. Wow.

 

[Fk_Pitt]

Let’s see what Gene Scaratore says about that one.

Well. He didn’t defend his brethren. That’s saying something.

 

[McKee Place]

Does Goodell really think their customers want to see all these stupid bullshit penalties...

 

[pittman71]

No reason for Haden to put his hand in the guy's back. He definitely pushed him in the back as Kamara tried to jump for the ball and it was dumb. Refs could have ignored it, but he didn't have to touch Kamara at all, he was in better position to catch the ball anyway.

 

[BFo8]

FG no good here, have to get in the end zone.

 

[DiehardPanther]

Well. He didn’t defend his brethren. That’s saying something.

Exactly! The only people arguing are the ones rooting against the Steelers.

That’s the same way I saw it. Thought it was a bad call, but when you do that way out in the open like that they’re going to call it. At least it was early enough in the game to overcome it.

If they’re going to call Haden for a hand on the back they needed to call the Saints DB for pass interference or holding for the handful of AB’s jersey he grabbed.

Definitely not rooting against the Steelers. Just thought it was a dumb move by Haden.

 

[BFo8]

Missed 2 guys in the end zone in that sequence. Not good enough.

Protection has been really good so far.

 

[DiehardPanther]

FG no good here, have to get in the end zone.

Agreed - Got to get TD’s.

 

[BFo8]

If the OL can hold up the way they have there’s going to be some chances down the field.

Just needs the defense to force some FG’s and keep it close.

 

[pittbb80]

That’s got to be a competiton

 

[BFo8]

I would’ve challenged that.

 

[pittbb80]

Why would t you challenge that. Of all the dumb challenges

 

[DiehardPanther]

That looked like a fumble. Why did they let it go and then start blowing the whistle?

 

[pittbb80]

Wow the Steelers are getting anally raped by the refs

 

[McKee Place]

Ironic... Bradley's DBs getting sanduskied today

 

[BFo8]

Wow the Steelers are getting anally raped by the refs

So many obviously bad challenges, then doesn’t take a shot on one that’s 50-50.

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Wow the Steelers are getting anally raped by the refs

That one was legit

 

[BFo8]

That one was legit

Yeah it wasn’t blatant, but hard to argue that one.

 

[DiehardPanther]

Should have been a false start. The LT moved early on that TD.

 

[pittbb80]

That one was legit

Maybe so but call it both ways. By that standard. brown was interfered when and so was the TE in the end zone

 

[pittbb80]

Steelers DL is way over rated. Outside of Heyward they are average at best

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Maybe so but call it both ways. By that standard. brown was interfered when and so was the TE in the end zone

Mcdonald was definitely held

 

[SoufOaklin4Life]

Steelers DL is way over rated. Outside of Heyward they are average at best

Are they actually rated well?

 

[pittman71]

If they’re going to call Haden for a hand on the back they needed to call the Saints DB for pass interference or holding for the handful of AB’s jersey he grabbed.

I agree. They are inconsistent.

 

[DiehardPanther]

Neither TD for the Saints should have counted. The PI on the first one, and their LT should have been called for false start on the second TD.

 

[McKee Place]

Maybe so but call it both ways. By that standard. brown was interfered when and so was the TE in the end zone

Agreed. Those would have been BS calls too, but they would have been consistent.

 

[pittbb80]

Are they actually rated well?

That’s. My problem. Is the inconsistency. hadens call was total BS relative to McDonald

 

[pittman71]

I would’ve challenged that.

Thomas never made a football move, they wouldn't have called that a catch. The interference call was a bad one, I thought it was almost simultaneous with Burnett getting there when the ball did.

 

[pittman71]

Make these officials full time. Goodell certainly has enough money to do it.
