Not going for it on 4th and inches and the refs is all the recap you need for this one..
So do you want to talk about the officiating in the first half, starting off with the clear PI against the Cowboys on 3rd down that would have been a 40 yard gain for Pitt? What about the obvious fde mask when Pitt failed to get the 4th down conversion? What about the 2nd PI on third down that should have been called against Brown? I have more if you’d like to hear them or you can just continue to play the victim.

I got ripped for this recently, but I keep telling you that the league will not let us reach another Super Bowl until that D Bag commissioner is gone, and the refs suddenly no longer feel like they are no longer encouraged to bend us over at the MOST inopportune times of EVERY close game.

The refs went all Dallas in the first half and then all Pittsburgh in the 4th quarter.

Dallas false started on the lamb TD and got away with two PI's that would have setup 1st and goal.

i will say though that Penalty on Smith was a really weak call.

Mike McCarthy sucks however and this organization is doomed between McCarthy and Prescott's cap number going forward.

the holding on Jaylon on the sack fumble was awful and could have changed the outcome and the personal foul is always called

So the Steelers not getting called for a clear PI against them on the 1st or 2nd drive of the game on 3rd down that would have been a 40 yard gain isn’t timing? Getting stopped short on the 40 yard line on 4th and 1 when there was a clear face mask wasn’t timing?

All on Jaylon Smith. The Cowboys got away with some calls, taking the points was not a bad decision at that point, Smith's penalty was inexcusable and a game changer.

Agreed about the Smith roughing the passer call but even everyone’s favorite announcer said that will get called every time and you can’t do it.
