It also says in the 'rule book' that you cannot go low on a tackle. Hasselbeck did.

(Feb 6 06, 11:52)what the fuck? you can't go low on a tackle? the first thing they teach you about tackling is to go low. you and steelers should know (see: carson palmer).
jackson clearly pushed off? yeah, about the same amount as the defender. then the ref through the flag only after the defender contested it.
"Big Ben's TD was over the line, they reviewed that." & "The refs are only human btw."
the point we are trying make here, jazzy boy, is that the refs were in pitts pocket. no amount of 'well, they reviewed the play' makes it any better. it makes it so much worse.
the refs didn't call it a touchdown until the conferred--which ultimately means no one had a real good view anyways. on hasselbecks non-fumble in the 4th, the ref called him down first, but when a steeler picked it up an ran with it, he just let him go and then signalled it was pitt ball after he was tackled. cripes, this game was a mess.
"We still would have won."
not if that pass interference call isnt made. not if they made the correct call on the big ben play. not if they don't call the holding penalty.
