Was watching espn and reading some articles yesterday and I heard at one point that the head of referees was saying, "We owe the steelers a call." Perfect, huh?

for the record, at the time I definitely thought it was an interception.

Come on - he REALLY SAID THAT?!
I was relieved the league admitted the call was error.
I get sick and tired of that Mike Periera on NFL Network making alibi after alibi after alibi.
Let's see if he comes clean this week on the SAFETY on the sack of Manning ... (another pro-Indy call.)
Porter's gonna be $15 grand lighter in the wallet later this week, too ...

Your wrong on the safety. Look where Manning's feet are when the first contact is made. He is out of the endzone. I watched that four times becuase the first time I saw it I thought for sure it was a safety and a gift call. But - it was the right call.
