Great question. I'm sure other teams feel likewise (talk to a Puker fan and they'll swear the refs screw them every week) but Monday nights mind-numbing non-call on the "blocked" FG was a whole new level of hosing at the hands of the zebras. I literally sat there with my mouth open watching the replay. I still go back to the 09 NFCCG, I cant recall a game where there were more blantant wrong/missed calls favoring 1 team in a game. I have seen games with a lot of bad calls by a bad crew that balance out, but this was the epitomy of shit.
also I have seen games where they refs will call it one team heavy for 3 quarters and then when the outcome is decided they will balance it out by calling meaning less penalties on the opposition... that really screams "fixed" IMO.
I wonder if the refs pick up thaf flag on Monday night if the seahawks werent in danger of not covering the spread? where was the money on that game?
IMO it has more to do with playoffs. The Seahawks need to make the playoffs so they push would be more that way than spread.
I just don't understand how you throw a flag for a violation that happened. Then you talk about it and decide it didn't happen when all the evidence shows it did happen.
It was a given. Zimmer was calm, pointing that he wanted to accept the penalty. Then the refs gathered and talked, and decided it wasn't a penalty.
