Seems like you`re saying they dominated the Seahawks to me. Please tell us how the refs "took over" the Championship game. In your original post, you give the Seahawks no credit at all. Maybe they had a little something to do with Ben`s "bad game". Personally, I like the Steelers, but your post was way too biased.

I'd say that 21-10 is not too close of a game, would you? 3 points, or even 7 is a pretty close game, but when the other team would have to score 2 TDs, or 1 TD and 2 FGs that's not close. I honestly don't think the Seahawks did anything to make Ben play bad...he just choked. He was making very bad throws to guys that were basically wide open, with minimal pressure on him....it wasn't the Hawks' D that caused that, it was him just playing like crap to put it mildly. The Seahawks shot themselves in the foot with penalties (like it or not) and dropped passes, whereas Big Ben shot the Steelers in the foot with bad play though he did partially make up for it by converting on a few big plays on scoring drives. You can view it however you wish, I don't really care if I come across as biased. As for the AFCC, they overturned a sure INT, and even did so on the challenge, that's a possible 14 point differential and a guaranteed 7 point difference, and there were other calls just as bad. I'd have to rewatch the game, it's been too long ago now.
