I have bet on tens of thousands of games in my life. I like to think that no game is ever fixed, but that has proven to not be true. Very rarely do I think a game I bet on is fixed, maybe 5 or so in my life. This is one of them. I honestly feel that the refs were paid off on this one. Not sour grapes, just stating my opinion.

I didn't bet a side...only the under a bunch of props and I agree with you. I think if the referees dont get the MVP, then they were jobbed

I agree and I was already turned off by NFL. I can't say that this is the last straw, but man, I can't continue to watch this like I have in the past, like I have my whole life.
I'll still watch games, but far less. The playoffs were awful, this game was atrocious.
I thought Hulk Hogan was going to win. Oh wait, thats wrestling. Or is it?

I really don't give a chit who won or lose either since I am a Colts Fan but I completely agree w/u. It had the feel to me as a nationally brodcasted Lakers Game or Duke Game Or even Indiana U at home in the past. but wtf we just have to be careful of these games and I know a lot of people that bet on Pitt will not get paid off when they find out their locals are broke after this one.

Pug what other nfl games have you known and be proven to be fixed ... I do agree hawks got some bad holding calls, the OPI was shaky, and Hasselback's tackle was absurd ...

Alexander running under 100 yds didnt help Seattle effort.
Where was that big MVP when he was needed most.

I thought refs did a fine job.

Hagins was off side 2 plays in a row one was called holding on the hawks the second was a sack. those ones stick out or the tackle by Hasselback for a illegal block you pick one

Can't think of any specifically offhand, but ex-players and referees of various games have admitted to fixing games at times. More so in college, but if you think is doesn't go on in the pros I think you are mistaken.

The holding took away the 1st and goal from the 1 as well

actually doubledown what side were you on?? clearly you are the one who can't open his eyes to what just happened. I didn't play a friggin side...and I can say this is crap. I am happy for Cowher, but I feel for Seattle because they just got jobbed.
