Seeing how the refs are calling the game and playing to it has always been a part of football.

Happens in every game.

They're just posting a trolling titled troll article that fits a popular narrative to get people to click for ad bucks.

We could make the argument that we lost in Miami because of a BS late-hit penalty etc...

Ahh... taking inspiration from the 'Bleacher Report' code of journalism!

Exactly - which is what makes this article so unbelievably idiotic. What other team gets
this written about them?

The Bears game was heinously officiated and one-sided in favor of Chicago. I can't believe someone could even make the argument that Seattle benefited from the officiating in that game.

No the biggest problem with articles like this is that they don't address that things like this happen every week to every team. When you write such an obviously biased article it invalidates the very point your trying to make. The author assumes that we would have lost that game in Seattle without even acknowledging the bad calls early on in the game that also influenced the outcome. Bad intellect leading to bad journalism! Nothing more.

Wow, that's like saying the Steelers got robbed in SBXL. The officiating was so horrendous in the Bears favor that game I think the officials themselves became paranoid it was going to look way to obvious they were trying to hand Chicago a W.

That game ranks up with the worst officiated games of all time and 99.9% went in Chicago's favor. To come back now and try and complain about a bad call or no call is beyond whining.

I remember after the game Bears fans were even saying the ref's helped as much as they could.

The bears didnt just have the Refs in that game, they had ALL the luck at the same time. The fact that we won that says a lot.

The real question here is how many games have the Seahawks LOST because of the refs>

:roll:

Or any other team for that matter. After all we beat the ninnirs merely because of bad officiating.

Anyone objective would realize that we actually had the worst game called against us during that Chicago game.

2 punt fumbles were called on the Bears favor even after we came up with the ball both times after the scrum. Also, the Edwards TD at the end of the half was overturned and there was no conclusive evidence otherwise- Carey screwed us over a few times.

Seattle could win 50 regular season games cuz of the refs and it still wouldn't make up for that one postseason game our team lost because of the refs..........
