This nonsense is regurgitated all the time and it isn't even accurate. Katrina was in August of 2005. The Saints went 3-13 the following season. They did not win the Super Bowl until the 2009 season; the Super was played on February 7th, 2010 - four and a half years removed from the hurricane.

SCREW THE REFS!!! IF YOU GO OUT AND STOMP A MUDHOLE IN THE OTHER TEAMS A$$, YOU AIN'T GOT TO WORRY ABOUT A F**KIN' REF!!

I agree. Refs are going to make calls and miss calls every week that fans will disagree with. I think fans sometimes forget that officials are trying to watch several players at once in a fast paced game. They don't always have as good a view as the fans at home. Holding, PI and targeting are often hard to decide even when seen in slow motion. Some ar eobvious to viewers but maybe unseen by an official that has his view blocked by a 6'6" lineman.

I get frustrated just like any of you do when I see a guy holding Bosa or a PI that doesn't get called but I feel that calls even out in the long run. I will never buy into any conspiracy tha tthe NFL wants certain teams to win and tells the officials to call more fouls on one team than another.

The NFL is a money making machine. They generate far more revenue than ay other sport between tickets, merchandise, adveretising and TV rights. If it ever got out tha they were "fixing games" the backlash would be enormous. There's no way they would risk that. What would they possibly gain?

The problem is that they have a team of officials for every game that are offsite and have better views than those of us at home that they could use to catch what the on-field refs miss. Especially when it's something that's egregious or a terrible call. There is literally no reason not to use this to not let mistakes and errors in judgement decide games. Unless of course they rely on those bad/missed calls to influence outcomes or spreads.

In a great league with decades upon decades of great rivalries the Seahawk ownership of the Niners over the past single decade is just a footnote.
It feels like a curse but it's nothing but a a rounding error.

More clock stoppage. Games have way too little flow as it is with all the reviews. If they start stopping play to review every close call the games will be 4 hours long. Fans would say they are stopping play for unneeded reviews and killing their teams' momentum. Then they'll give teams more challenges during the game. It could get out of hand really quickly.

The league did really well for a long time without replays. Ever since they started they're reviewing more and more stuff. Things like targeting. Did he lead with his head? Did he do it on purpose? Was the player he hit unprotected? Did the receiver maintain possession all the way through the catch? Did the ball move in his hands?

All this crap is reviewed in ultra slow motion and even then they still get the call wrong.

Many of us on this forum are old enough to remember when the clock stopped for incomplete passes, injuries or timeouts. Sometimes they had officials timeouts if the game was moving along without injuries or team timeouts. They had to squeeze in some commercials. Now they have all those replays to run commercials.

The funny thing is teams and fans still complained about bad calls or calls that should have been made but weren't. Monday morning QBs still argued over whether it was a catch or not. In the long run nothing has changed except there are more timeouts for commercials. The game hasn't improved.

Just hit me that we may never get another chance to beat or better yet, embarrass Pete Carroll & Russell Wilson and the Seahawks. Those two may very well end their Seahawk careers this year having completely owned us.

Calling the Seahawks-49ers a rivalry is like Rams fans called the 1980s/1990s matchups vs the 49ers a "rivalry".

the Seahawks have completely OWNED us this decade minus 6 inches from the end zone.

this is not a rivalry…it has been a thorough beat down from RW and Pete Carroll.

good riddance to both !

I'll be honest, we probably would've won had I watched the game instead of make money. #IMSORRY.

nah records don't matter in rivalries...Seattle is junk and has nothing to play for BUT that didn't matter when they were playing the 49ers. There's been years when both teams sucked BUT it was Seattle vs SF so it didn't matter.

I didn't even see the DK stomp until today...what a bunch of dirty f**ks. That hit to Mitchell's head was dirty as s**t too. Old man Pete acts like some hippy guru but he's teaching them to play dirty football for years because they know that's the only way they can win. At some point SF needs to put those f**kers in their place.


SF players for years have been getting hurt a ton playing them and it's not just from normal football s**t.

I have no respect for that team and fan base ever since they dumped popcorn all over Bowman.

Just saw Adams is out for the year...karma is a b***h

Does DK stomp on his foot on purpose? @NFLOfficiating

If they're that dirty then maybe our guys should do something about it. Don't just let it keep happening.

We did do something. We gave Russ a few cheap shots towards the end of the game that cost us dearly.
