Yes, that roughing the passer call was pure BS but it wouldn't have changed the outcome of the game. It did remind of the LEGAL hits that Kam Chancellor has leveled over the years (including Vernon Davis) and was flagged for. The game is moving faster with every passing year and relying on these geriatric refs to see it in real time is ludicrous. The Hawks last loss was to the Chiefs over a non call that would have put them at 1st and goal @ the 1/2 yard line. Then the NFL had the gall to admit they were wrong 2 days later.

Also the unnecessary roughness on hitting that Seahawk receiver that was still in bounds. Troy Aikman had the nerve to say it was a good call even though it was the wrong call (concussion much?) The same drive another nonsense call on the hit on Richardson. How many steps does a receiver need to make before he isn't defenseless.
Tired of seeing midgets get calls because they duck when a hit is coming. Nothing to do about it except only draft 5'6" players.
