No the Haws did not bring their best game, yes they made many costly mistakes on their own, but in my opinion that does not excuse the officiating...Had the MAJOR CALLS I mentioned not been made I would accept the loss with as much grace, as my home team themselves are...BUT THEY WERE NOT OUT PLAYED...They outgained the Steelers by 57 more yards, they had 6 more first downs...There were only 3 plays on which they ran, played the ball better than the Hawks, if it had not been for the officiating I do not believe this would have beem true...In the end it is the result that matters and Pittsburg won, but it was not for their artistry or skill so much as their damn luck...Congrats to them on that though! |
