They weren't talking about them much when they were up 2 scores.

[Guest]

Seattle's lucky to be down only 11 right now. Green Bay has easily been the better team.

Yeah, they were talking about Ryan Grant. And rightfully so, he coughed up two balls in a matter of like a minute and a half.

so an obvious facemask on 1st down and a hold on Burleson on 3rd down. I guess we know who the refs are going for

And they gave the packers a terrible spot which was only reversed after a challenge.

 

They have made bad calls on both sides.

TOUCHDOWN!

Yes but that call can be challenged. Obvious DB interference can't be. Even the announcers are basically saying they could be called but aren't and the seahawks just have to deal with it

Uhm...and?

 

Are you saying that the refs are favoring the Packers because they are only making bad calls against the packers if they can be challenged and missing calls on the seahawks that can't be challenged?

[Roast]

Wow, It's really coming down right now.

I am pointing out that the only objection that you can make is a bad spot that was reversed. However, the seahawks are having to overcome calls that can't be challenged and that are just as obvious and are happening often.

Come on man, Green Bays offense is destroying Seattles D right now, and it has nothing to do with the refs. Outside of the first 3 mins of this game, Seattle has basically had their asses handed to them.

That's fine. But what you said is "I guess we know who the ref's are going for." If they were really favoring the packers intentionally would they be making bad calls against the packers too? It just amounts to bad luck that the bad calls against the seahawks weren't reverseable and those against the pack were.

 

 

Anyway - This game is getting really fun to watch with all this snow.

[Roast]

RYAN GRANT!

[Roast]

haha, this game is hilarious to watch through this snow.

[E.J.]

This game is crazy to watch with all the snow. The Packers' offense is destroying the Seahawks' defense.

[Mark_R]

When Ryan Grant scores again, I want to see a snow angel and all the fans throwing snow in the air. That field is awesome right now.

THAT would be the best TD celebration ever.

[Roast]

:lol: I love that every time they show Holmgren more and more snow just keeps piling on his head.

 

Lmao, Favre just threw a snowball at someone.

 

EDIT: and Driver got him back at point blank range :lol:

that doesn't change the fact that green bay has adopted the NE model of pass D: if they are better than u, commit a penalty on basically every down and count on the refs not having the balls to call the penalties

[wekse]

seattle sucks balls.

The refs could call a penalty on basically every play in every NFL game either on the lineman or the DB's, so whats your point? Seattle has had their asses kicked today, and the refs have played a very very very small part of that. Seattle away from home, is just an average team plain and simple.

[Roast]

You're down by 22 with less than a quarter left and you've got a 4th and 2 and you punt?

 

Good game plan.

[Keener98]

Damn refs for not tackling Grant, they are so in favor of the Pack its obvious.

To be fair, an inaccurate spot happens on 75%+ of plays.

hahaha wow.
