    A clip of the Seahawks vs Packers Monday Night Football (MNF) game where replacement refs make controversial calls.

    3 calls in that drive cost packers the game.

    Offensive PI called on defense
    Pick called off due to a horrible roughing the passer
    The "ghost" hail Mary td

    **** cost me $660 . Can I sue the NFL?

    B

    Vinny Testeverde QB sneak getting to the 1 yard line and being given a TD comes to mind.....Think it was 97 or 99...

    The roughing the passer wasn't horrible. The defender cannot dive at the lower legs of QBs.

    Ive seen worse in playoff games

    holding calls, PI calls

    just because a "big boy" in Aaron Rodgers lost.. its a big fuss, look at his stats. Did he even play this game

    Im sorry as a MVP on MNF you have to show up

    also liked how they only showed the 1 obvious holding call againist Okung, but their were several others that were phantom. Clay Matthews is blockable now

    Just stop. This post is idiotic as ****.

    This could be any two teams and the reaction would be exactly the same. It's questioning the integrity of the game....

    i honest dont know what to say...jennings had the majority of the possession with tate clinging on for dear life...but someone just mentioned that jennings heel hit the back line...which would make him inelegible and hence tate who has both feet/body in bounds the tie goes to the receiver...i cant believe what just happened...

    + egregious offensive PI on Tate during the hail mary TD

    also, not that drive, but the earlier terrible PI call

    I think he is missing the point. His agenda is quite clear and he is trying to fit the events of reality to fit into it....

    If that was Aaron Rodgers that threw to that pass to Greg Jennings, you would be saying the opposite. ESPN would have hyped it up as a highlight to his career. I know how ESPN works, they are sneaky to the average fan. But i stopped watching that channel a long time ago

    The Pack didnt deserve to win that game, their MVP didnt show up in a primetime game

    No, I wouldn't be saying the opposite.

    If you really believe that last sentence you wrote, then you're clearly a hater with an agenda against the Packers.

    Again.. just stupid.

    So I didn't watch the game but I saw all of the replays. It looked like both players caught the ball.

    What do the rules say about when two opposing players catch the ball at the same time?

    i have no agenda againist anyone, but i will call BS when i see it

    had that been Aaron Rodgers that threw that Hail Mary to Greg Jennings or Jordy Nelson, just like if Floyd was robbed againist Cotto... the reactions on twitter to the Packers win, and Mayweather loss would be so different

    You had celebrities commentating on Pacquaios loss saying, telling Bradley to give his belt back lol. smh

    Blatantly obvious call and they completely called the opposite, and it reversed the outcome of the game. I don't know if it's the worst call, but it will always be one of a handful all-time that will be talked about, written about and replayed when the topic is the worst officiating calls ever in sports.
