Default OT: Super Bowl Sunday

Posted By: LetsGoBucs

I agree. The referees went both ways.

How about the first Warner fumble? The only reason his arm moved at all was that he was hit and he certainly wasn't throwing the ball because it was already on the ground.

When was the last time you saw a holding call in the end zone of a playoff game in the 4th quarter when it was close? Wiping out a first down that would have offered the Steelers the chance to get another first down and the game would have been basically over with the clock. I've seen guys tackled in the open in the end zone and no flag.

Big Ben plows into the end zone and they overturned a TD for Pittsburgh.

Doesn't sound like a conspiracy to me. In fact if you look at the replay I'd be willing to bet that you'll find a lot more holding going on by the Cardinals O-line than took place on Pittsburgh O-line. Personally I think holding happens on every play and they only call blatant holds when a guy is beat.

All that said, the only thing that matters is that Pittsburgh is again the Super Bowl Champions!!!
