As someone who can't stand the Seahawks and wanted the Packers to win... How in God's name is that a 1st down? He's clearly short by half a yard AT LEAST.
The Seahawks got robbed there.

You are probably refering to the view from an angle above that showed the yellow line for the first down. The thing is that the sideline view showed the actual first down marker and it was closer to midfield than the yellow line in the other camera angle suggested. The sideline view made it pretty much a "call stands" situation because it provided no definitive evidence that the call on the field was wrong. The same would have held true if the refs had called no first down on the field, then that call would have stood all the same.

I did see the sideline view with the actual marker after posting my original comment. That makes sense.

Guess, that's all there is to it.

On to next week.
