On that play where we had Big Ben sacked then he got away. Cooper was about to level Ben again when he got leveled himself RIGHT IN THE BACK by a Steeler. The Head ref was right there watching and a big NO CALL! UNREAL!

Yep. That was a total "block in the back" or whatever they call that. I about blew a gasket on that one. Throw the flag man!!! :mad:

You just know if a Cardinal did that there would of been a flag thrown. Arrgghhh!!! :shrug:

i saw Dockett getting held all day and they still couldn't contain him. I think they finally called it on the last drive but then ,in typical ref fashion, stopped the clock.

I was yelling so loud at that call. I was also mad about a few no-calls, like the helmet to Matts chin, the dude launced UP at Matts head when Matt was jumping to throw the ball away. It could've gone either way I guess but if it was Golden Whiner boy Tom Brady it would've been a 15 yarder

I lost it at this point too - had forgotten about it because of the win but you are absolutely correct.

Oh and why did the game clock not wind after the last holding call in the fourth? If it doesn't run until the play starts by rule in that position cool, but the hold there by the offense... I think they shouldn't benefit by the clock not starting as soon as the refs place the ball. Ben ran to the sidelines to get a play call.

Cripes, what a BS noncall that was! Right after that play, he was looking over at our bench and pointing to his shoulder. I sit in row 8, he was directly in front of us. A bunch of us were just screaming at his punk ass. He even glanced up.

We declined the penalty so I think that might have gotten rid of the runoff, but they should have wound the clock as soon as they had the ball placed and ready for play.

The ref were typical; bad! I actually thought that the Card's may have gotten the benefit of doubt from the refs a couple times today.

But the main thing is: The Cardinals did not leave the game in the refs hands!

A-men. Gotta give some love to the refs after that spot on the 4th and 1 play.
