That's just how gay football is becoming. The pushoff in the end zone was a pushoff, no debating it. While it didn't interfere with the defender's ability to cover the WR, it is still technically a pushoff. Don't blame the call, blame the rules.
I'd say the only questionable call that would have made a significant difference (from my eyes) was the TD by Roethlisburger, because it was a very close call. It did seem like a couple of millimeters of football might have made it to the white line, but I don't have the eyes of an eagle and they won't do a good frame-by-frame replay for you to be able to develop a concrete opinion. Regardless, had they made it or not the Steelers still would have won. As with the Hasselbeck block on the return.
This wasn't the best game that either team had played, but the Steelers did what they've been doing all season: solid defense and making the big offensive plays.
