Whining on the Steelers boards

The call on Kamara was weak. When he jumped the DB used his hand to stop him from leaning back which appeared to be what he was trying to do. It was a BS call, but we've been victimized too, so whatever.

I'm really suprised that the masses feel it was that bad of a call.

This is exactly what happened... just as saintfan described it. That's pass interference. His straight arm impeded Kamara from making a fair play on the ball. If anything, it was incredibly stupid play by Haden. If he jumps up straight, it's an incomplete pass. If he uses his forearm on, it's probably 50/50 on a PI call. A straight arm, a clear straight arm that did exactly what was described, was a straight foward call.
