The Packers were robbed of the win by not one bad call but two terrible calls and one that was highly questionable.
Roughing the QB on the int is very questionable. Out of the tackle box the defender lunges and while in the air and falling the qb gets rid of the ball. Since the defender hit at or below the knees the questionable interpretation is that he was going for the knees to inflict injury and is almost automatically called. But that is still questionable.
The pass interference against the GB defender when he had textbook coverage (he had position, and looked back to knock the ball down) while the Seattle reciever climbed up and over the defenders back should not have been called against the defense. That was the call that allowed the final play to occur. I'm not even going to comment on that as most people who have more than five brain cells to rub together know was not a simultaneous catch that the NFL offices are now claiming occurred. Not to mention that they totally missed the shove in the back which was not reviewable.
All in all one of the worst called games ever. The replacement refs now have botched the calls enough to completely change the outcome. Up until this time it has been close but nothing so blatant. I am sad for the league and the sport until it gets fixed.

Ok I'll stop ranting now.
I've seen everything now!! (lol) This interview with Greg Jennings is classy, but hillarious!

I had a hard time sleeping after this one. It was an ugly game in so many ways. The Packers game plan and execution were terrible in the first half, but they came back and gave themselves a chance to win. It was a terrible way to lose. We can only hope this will be the impetus to get the real refs back on the field. All the Packers can do is move on and focus on New Orleans Sunday.
The defense is making strides, but ARodg and the offense need to get it together.

Exactly.
I'm wasn't a happy camper after watching the game. The Packers are my team and we need a win and no more fuck ups by the refs!

I may be in the minority but fu** the refs. $150,000 a year for working about 20 days and they are not happy? There are lots of people that would be happy to get that salary and, with a little experience, would be just as good. The only reason this is an issue is because all the refs are new and need to get some experience.

The NFL and the referee's union have ended the lockout. The regular refs should be on the field tomorrow night in Baltimore.
I kinda enjoyed seeing the pack gets screwed over.
......and all of the teams throughout the strike had the possibility of calls against that could have (and probably did) alter the outcome of the game
the Seattle/Green Bay game went back and forth the entire time and really and truly - Green Bay shouldn't have placed themselves in a position to have even had the game riding on a last ditch effort by the Seahawks.....

what did Bear Bryant say years and years ago about throwing passes???
".....three things can happen when you throw a pass ===> and two of them are bad...."
First it was the Pack getting robbed last Monday and then to see my beloved Bears Roll right into the D to the F to the motherflippin W area. Park right into Arlington and enter Jerry Jones holy of all holies stadium and beat the living crap out of Romo and Big D.

I am starting to dig Mondays again. This is beyond great!!!!! Makes me want to pick up Tequila again oh wait I think I had some last night.
