There would have been way more obviously poor calls made during the course of the game. Not only that; but the Packers also benefited in that game from some erroneous calls.
We all know that the final two plays were called incorrectly.
Not only those final two plays. And that is enough anyway, as that is when the outcome WAS decided.
But up until that point, you had plenty of other horrible suspicious calls go your way on big calls. Like Sam Shields being pushed from the back and having his facemask tugged on by Sidney Rice, flag thrown, and somehow Shields penalized. That was also called by Lance Easley.
You also, from Lance Easley, had offsetting personal foul calls after the thug Brandon Burton had roughed up Greg Jennings time and time again and finally Jennings retaliated.... then the flag was throw, calls on both.
And you had the interception late in the game along the right sideline, that would have essentially ended the game, but the flag was thrown on Nick Perry for a late hit to the QB or high hit (never heard the explanation). It wasn't late as Perry was already on his final step when that pass was thrown by Wilson, and the hit was chest level, and wasn't the helmet. I took a sequence of photos from the play which showed it was a terrible call, and a big call as it negated a turnover down inside your own 30 yard line at a point when we could have gone up by 2 scores late.
So cut the BS. We have moved on very well from that game, but let's not forget that we were 100% royally robbed, so much that it ended the lockout immediately.
