No. I’m not a Jaguars fan. Way to make baseless assumptions. But anyone with sound intelligence knows the Jaguars were owning you guys the entire game and that late rally comeback was just humoring them. Blame your safety or linebacker or whoever that was for not being able to make a hard hit and possibly stripping the ball, not the refs, especially since your team gets the most favors, bar none. Everyone knows the Seahawks were the real winners of that Super Bowl, btw.

And how many Lombardi Trophies do the Jacksonville Jagoffs have, pray tell? Oh, right… None. But hey, you just signed that awesome David Garrard to a $70 million contract so I’m sure one will be coming your way soon. I mean, how can you be denied what with a quarterback who can barely break 100 yards passing in any given game?

It’s not like that play mattered, it just sealed a game the Jags were gonna win anyway. Boo fucking hoo. You milltown shitsnackers were spotted a FREE SUPERBOWL WIN largely due to biased and incompetent officiating. You don’t deserve to complain about the referrees ever again. Karma’s a bitch, ain’t it? Have fun being the next Dallas Cowboys and not win another playoff game for a decade or two.

Yous are just a bunch of cry babies. I watched the game, and the Jaguars where the better team. There might have been holding on the RG, but it was nothing blatant. The defender could have flopped to make it appear like he was held.Besides The Seahawks should probably get an apology letter for getting robbed of the Super Bowl.

I don’t see what you are talking about. I watched the video 5 times, and I don’t see any blatant holding. The only thing that even looks close is the Jags RG takes somebody down. It’s hard to tell if that guy was flopping or not because this video quality is not the greatest.Do you know what a hold is? Watch the Jaguars LT ~~blocking~~ holding James Harrison preventing him from getting into the very hole that Garrard ran through. Even if Harrison doesn’t make that tackle without the hold (which, given his track record, he’d have made the tackle), the Jags are at least looking at 4th and 12 with the penalty called, and their offense had been anemic the entire second half.The loss can’t be put on the refs shoulders, Carter missing the tackle at the 30, calling a run play on 3rd and long when a first down was needed to clinch the game, and three interceptions in one quarter are much more the reason than the refs. That non-call certainly contributed though, and it’s pretty obvious that it was the wrong call.
