the only reason the steelers should not have won is because of the block in the back on harrisons int return

the best view of the catch is from the open field looking into the end zone. This was a catch and the cards fans should start blaming their db’s and dl for allowing the steelers to move 80 yards on four plays in 1 minute 30 seconds.

I wish everybody would shut up bout this if you want to get technical the giants tyree play that won the super bowl a few years back wasnt really a catch. A reciever must control the ball all the way to the ground and it not hit the ground or its incomplete thats in the rule book check that out you bunch of crybabies dont hate on the steelers cause we got six rings we are the yankees of football without having to pay these players all the money in the world thats enough said we won you didnt get over it! and have a nice day!

Wow this thread still lives on! Doesn’t everyone know it’s a vast Rooney conspiracy that the Steelers win games. Ambassador Rooney has a black satellite that encircles the entire earth scrambling refs brains into jello. As a Steeler fan I believe I have heard every cock eyed view of why they win games. Hopefully someday people can put down their tin foiled hats and actually accept a Steeler victory.

You guys are fuckin retarded. This is clearly a catch. Clearly has 2 feet down. I don’t see how you can even begin to argue that this not a catch.

You people are retarded. I thought Cowboy fans were babies, but sheesh. It was a good throw, and an even better CATCH. You really think a ref has a “zooming” tool during gametime to use? You lost, despite a great fight towards the end. If your team is that good, get over it, and make the playoffs this year. When the ball was caught, the toes were down. End of discussion. Use any cropping tool you want, being you are that desperate to try and overturn some call. Email the refs and tell them that. They will probably laugh at you. I sure as hell am. Losers…

YES Homless had two feet down BEFORE the catch and one up after show the hole picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look where his arms are positioned. Find that same time from the front, and the ball is still just out of his grip. It was just moments apart, so I dont blame the ref. But the foot comes up before he makes the catch

How many Super Bowls have the Stealers won when there have been controversial plays that have gone in the Stealers favor? vs. How many Super Bowls have the Stealers lost when there have controversial plays that have gone against them? Answer 5 vs. 0
If it were 0-5, the Stealer fans would definately be the biggest cry babies in the NFL. By the way, he had both feet down! Also, Josh is totally confused. If the calls were going in Arizona’s direction, they wouldn’t have to challenge a lot of the plays. I would love, for just one time, the bad calls go against Pittsburgh in a Super Bowl. It would be changed to 4 rivers due to the river of tears from the Stealer fans.

Wow, I’ve been a Steelers fan since the 80′s and I’ve never seen the team garner such attention. I looked around the web today and “some” people are still not convinced of the td, how dreadful and sad! Does success breed contempt? Maybe the new DSM-IV guide will have a chapter on Steelers winning Superbowls neurosis. Steelers fans you can’t say it’s a dull life!

you cant be for real dude, look at his feet, right click and save it to a file on your CPU……then use your zooming tool and take a better look,… i understand your point….but your wrong…the foot in front is at a angle, while the other is straight up and down.. standing on the side of his foot (left)allowing his toe to just barely tap( as you see)***this is where card fans see hope***) AS HE IS FALLING FORWARD HIS LEFT FOOT STARTS TO STRAIGHTEN, AND HE IS NOW STANDING MORE ON HIS LEFT TOE-WITCH IN TURN MAKES HIS RIGHT FOOT A PEER AS IT WAS ALWAYS JUST A LITTLE OFF THE GROUND, NOW THAT WE GOT THE BEST CAM ANGLE TO SEE THE PLAY FROM BEHIND, WE SEE IN FACT THE RIGHT TOE -DID- MAKE IT DOWN ——GO CARDS!

“Actually these photos show his toes BURIED in the turf. Wow. The last photo proves he DIDN’T have both toes down, look at how the laces are NOT at the same level horizontally so 1 foot could NOT be down unless he wears 2 different sized shoes.” – go bucs

Just what are you smoking? If you look at the first picture, you will clearly see that the right foot is vertical and the left is at an angled slant. It is also slightly more depressed in the turf because it is the forward most of the two feet.

Now, keep that factoid in mind as you look at the second photo taken at the same instant from a different angle, and tell me that you find it mysterious that the laces are not perfectly aligned horizontally.

You can admit that the toes are “BURIED” in the turf but yet you deny that the toes are not down….!? What??? Does that even make the slightest sense? Only if you believe that the photos are doctored can I make any sense of your comment.

But guess what – I’ve still got the game on hi def recording, and I have watched this from every angle one frame at a time. The touchdown is clear and the photos above are not doctored.

Get over it, man.

Im about tired of always winning the Superbowl and always having to put up with crybabies. Ive heard a lot about how the Refs screwed the cards and the NFL wanted the steelers to win. I cant believe there is that much stupidity out there. Here are some good reasons why the game wasnt “fixed” nor the refs/nfl wanting the steelers to win.
#1. Ken Wisenhunt(Arz) threw out 2 challenges in this game, both challenges were overturned in Arizona’s favor. 2 for 2 in the game. Both hurting pitt and helping Arz.
#2. Every freaken time the Steelers made any kind of play in the game it was either challenged or under booth review, really believe it or not it almost seemed like the Refs were looking for a reason to overturn the calls into Arizonas favor.
#3. We had a holding call in the endzone late in the 4th qtr. Ben Hit Holmes for a first down and pretty much would have ended the game, instead a holding call in the endzone neglacted that and resulted into a safety. Are they going to call that against Pitt if they want Pitt to win so bad? Have you EVER in your life seen such a call in a superbowl? What about that?
#4. After Arz took the 23-20 lead, Pitt had one last final offensive drive. Started at the 22 yard line. VERY first freaken play, the refs call a holding call against Pitt which now set up a 1st & 20 at the Pitt 12 yard line. So your telling me the refs/nfl wanted the steelers to win so freaken bad, but yet there going to make this bonehead call against Pitt?
#5. If your looking at it from a Gambling standpoint, Pitt only won by 4 pts, the spread was 7. So its not like they wanted Pitt to cover for a gambling purpose, because they didnt.
#6. Remember Larry Fitz’s first TD of the game? Re-watch that over, he caught the ball at the highest point and didnt have control coming down, i swear everytime ive seen that, it looks like the ball hits the ground on his way down and he doesnt have full control. But was it reviewed? was it challenged? No. not even talked about.

So there ya go, 6 good reasons in why this game WASNT fixed or the refs/nfl had it out for the steelers to win. That is just plain out ignorance. I guess it was also the refs fault that K. Warner threw a 100 yard INT the other way when it was 1st and goal for Arz and had 3 chances to throw it in there, maybe he should have been more patient. But no lets not credit the steelers or call it a boneheaded play by Warner, lets just say its the refs fault. Plus everyone is talking about Holmes TD at the end of the game, how they question both feet down. There was a pic of where his right foot was up about an inch off the ground behind his left foot. People come on….are you that stupid? Let me tell you the rule and what happened. Holmes caught the ball, had control, both toes ON the ground (as you see in the pic at the top of this page) then as he went falling or towering down his foot began to come off the ground. Its called gravity. But once the ball is caught, has possesion and both feet have touched the ground in the endzone, the play is dead. Doesnt matter what happens 1 second later or 3 days later, the play is dead after that. It was a catch & touchdown.

Yet again another post that has an image of Mr. Holmes with 2 feet down on the playing surface BUT with no way of knowing whether the ball was in the possession of the receiver at the time.

For the most part the Steelers fans have been completely classless. In the way that they have handled this ‘alleged’ victory. It’s the blatant arrogance and barbarism of the Steelers fans that make it difficult for others to even consider accepting that the referees ‘might’ be correct. I say MIGHT because there is STILL no indisputable evidence that confirms that the ball was in the possession of the receiver WHILE both feet were on the playing surface.

In the images above, where is the ball? That’s right… you have no idea where the ball is. You don’t know whether it is in the possession of the receiver or not. You don’t know whether he has control at that time or not. All that is seen is that two feet are touching the playing surface. Period.

32 Magic..Nice STILL picture of his feet AFTER he caught the ball and had both feet down. Your picture would be the same of showing holmes sitting out of bounds with the ball in his hands and claiming he was never in the field of play. Now take your BS, make a sandwich and eat it.

38 Byran…Smoke another one. Quit bogarding.

44 JD….I don’t see you complaining of the penalties not called with Warner removing his helmit. There were at least two plays where Warner removed his helmet when the drive didn’t end the way he thought it should end. I say two plays beacuse that’s all you can see on the TV. I’m sure there were more. im removing his helmet is basically the same as olmes using the ball as a prop. Both illegal and both NOT called.
