This is going to be the talk of the match up. Hawks fans and our beloved sports media and their need for drama will see to that.

Not good news for the Steelers. If anything, he's going to be more favorable to the Hawks. Unless ofcourse he stashes a Steelers shirt under his ref uniform.

[thewarden86]

Just informed a Seahawk fan friend. The anticipation of his reaction is killing me.

Refs be dammed! The Hawks had better not stand a chance in this one! No offense to Seahawks fans, but we got our butts whooped in week one and we'd better not be 0-2 by the end of Sunday.

we better not lose this game

im hoping we dominate this game to show that the hawks arent in our league

but if we lose then its panic mode

[ball hawkin 20]

Man that ref completely ruined that game

[ravensdfan]

Ref or no ref I don't think the Seahawks are in your league. I think you guys will take this game. I just don't see that the Seahawks have anything to bring to the fight.

[PuRock]

Go Seahawks!

[Moderator 2]

As much as I would love the Steelers to lose, they got their pride trampled and are going to come out mean and wanting to make a statement.

[AsianRice]

If there is miracle, I like it to happen in this match. Seahawks are scoring hard on the Steelers......

Lets go Seahawks.....

[AsianRice]

For some reasons, if the Steelers are running up on the Seahawks, is it making sure they won't come back to beat them or is it just raw anger from the week 1 loss?

[darklight1216]

I wonder if the league did that on purpose in an effort to make this game remotely interesting.

[latenighthero]

Round 1 of the Andrew Luck sweepstakes!!!!! Seahawks are brutal and we ALL saw what the steelers are capable of and that isn't much...Go Seahawks, wait...Go steelers, no thats not right. Hmm.....

[H8R]

I don't think the Seahawks can even challenge the Steelers but I would LOVE for them to get a win for obvious reasons. Ben should have a good game.

I know you think it's funny, but the poor Seahawks with one of the best running backs of all time got flat out cheated of a superbowl ring. That's not right.

[T3hRaven]

I can't believe that guy still has a job as bad as that Super Bowl was called. Everyone knows the Seahawks were the real winners of that one.

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Don't see any possible way that the Seahawks win.

[YYZ66]

I don't think Pitt has anything to worry about. I'm expecting the Steelers to absolutely dismantle Seattle.

one of the best running backs of all time?

who shaun alexander........he is not even close to the greatest of all time

and there was only one really bad call in that superbowl and it would not have reversed the 75 yd touchdown run or the randel el touchdown pass

it wasnt close enough for the refs to decide..... we killed them

Only those who "know" things that aren't so.

I don't know....they lost by 11 and the only call that I think was blatantly poor, was the holding call. Foote (or whoever it was) was clearly in the neutral zone at the time of the snap. As for the others (PI call on Seattle and Ben TD), they could have both gone either way. The PI call, to me, was the right call. As "little as the push off may have been, it was a pushoff. I don't think Bens TD broke the goaline, though, but who's to say they don't on the next play. Either way, it wasn't enough to have Seattle score 11 more points, IMO.

[Clutch Ravens]

The Steelers HAVE to win by at LEAST 10 points or it's pretty embarassing.

The Seahawks lost 33-17 to the awful 49ers. They've pretty much booked their top 5 pick already and we're only one game in to the season. The Steelers need to re-gain some self-respect after that beat down and I think they do it to the lowly Seahawks. I'd say the score ends up around 32-3 Steelers.

[RavensAllTheWay]

Honestly, I've seen the replay of Ben's TD run in that SB and I still am having trouble seeing the ball cross the plane before he was down. That said, it was won by the Steelers and that's what it comes down to.

[FerrariFan87]

Seahawks looking for revenge.... the Steelers better not be squashing grapes on Sunday or they'll be upset.

Steelers rout 27-10.

[PuRock]

Let's not forget that the Seahawks were able to squash the mighty Saints in the playoffs last year. Anything is possible.

Steelers D >>>>> Saints D, but you make a good point.

[Guest ArmyRaven52]

Not saying it will happen but what if it comes down to the end and Marshawn Lynch Breaks another crazy, run. would he be the most clutch RB ever??? lol

On a serious not though I really dont see how the steeler's lose this one, and honestly it has been mentioned but if they dont win big than they have proved nothing against that team.

The WR (I think it was Darrell Jackson) put a hand on his man before he adjusted for the ball, but he didn't shove him. He simply tapped him and turned for the ball. The Steelers DB was not moved or pushed back by it. D Jax simply put a hand on him and quickly adjusted....I guess you're right in that it could have gone either way, but it just seemed like a really soft call.
