Got into it with a friend that’s a Seahawks fan over this one. The ball broke the plane.

Fuck yeah it did
Barely but that’s all that’s required
The Seahawks fan had a hard time to accept this is a TD.
FUCK SEATTLE!
Seattle made mistake after mistake in this game. We weren’t the better team but they fucked up from opening drive to end of the game.
They have this really weird mentality about that game
It did, for real it did
For the sake of rubbing the win even more into your Seahawks friends face, remind him that the final score was 21-10. Tell him, “you’re right that wasn’t a touchdown. But we still won 14-10”
100% it did, just like the GD Jesse James TD that was called back. Still madder than a one winged hornet in an air raid attack on a bee colony about that shit call.
My take on this is that Ben initially broke the plane but was then pushed back a little. He then instantly reacts and reaches the ball back over the goal line but was already down.
I think people see that secondary move more than the initial breaking the plane (it’s easier to see, too) and assume he was stopped short – but he had already scored.
I remember one of the ESPN guys did a whole segment on this and showed how it distinctly was a TD.
Lmao… the only people who cry more than Bengals fans about 2005, are Seahawks fans.
Ruling on the field was a TD. Personally I don’t think the replay was conclusive for or against a TD, so by the rules, it stands as called.
If the ruling on the field said he was short, it could have easily been upheld by that replay. But he wasn’t, and it didn’t. So it’s a TD. Get the fuck over it Seattle. Ike Taylor, Jerome Bettis, and Hines Ward sealed that win.
They’re still mad up there. Even my brother in Boston, rooting for Seattle, said it broke the plane.
I used to live in Seattle and repped a Steelers lanyard at work. The number of times I heard about the refs giving us this game 15+ years later was way too high.
My response was always: it’s not our fault you only have one Super Bowl win. We’re not the team that was afraid to run the ball on the one yard line.
Worked every time.
Seahawks and choking near the end zone in a Super Bowl. Name a better combo.
Let’s also note the camera angle is from the end zone… not exactly down the goal line plane. It looks like it’s in from this angle and that means it was surely in if you were standing on the goal line
I remember the angle of the Music City Miracle playing tricks on the eyes because the main camera was ahead of the play like it is here.
