Could happen.

It would be admitting they did something wrong
They'll get a nice apology letter on league letterhead.
Never happen....bad precedence.....even though it would be fixing an incredible f*** up!
They royally fukked up the call. Overturning it won't happen.
no way
Nope. They'll issue some half-ass statement about "judgement" and such. They may even admit it was a mistake. But it won't be overturned. That roughing call that negated the pick was g-awful too.
Can they overturn the season?
Not to mention the Sam Shields interference call that gave Seattle life.
They won't overturn it just to save face. It's a screw job. Now we have to figure out how to move ahead.
Overturn what?
MM understandably royally pissed off and holding his tongue as best he can. Showing a hell of a lot of restraint.
I still can't believe wtf I just saw there.
Everyone knows GBP won except the league that they play in.
Goodell, you stupid mfer, you just poked the bear. It is time, my unknown friends, to call and call and email and email and do the stupid ****ing things we have to do to try and convince corporate suits that they've gone off the reservation again!!
There it is. The Packers got to pay the price. NOW FIX THE GODDAMM THING or be filed in that dusty bin. I'm there.

"I'm not in the mood for drama tonight, Jason."
MM is a ****ing stud.

No call on offensive pass interference on Seattle was worse than the call itself. Whatever
I give up on the replecements. Whatever happens from this point on happens. This is all on Goodell from today on.

The roughing the passer call on Walden when the Packers intercepted.
The absolute mugging of Packers receivers...Jennings gets knocked down just outside the endzone and the offsetting penalties. I saw Nelson get knocked over while a pass was in the air to another receiver.
This game was bad but the hit Jennings took was dangerous. The hags player should have been eject from the game. I think Jennings was right going after the player that hit him. If the Referrers do not protect the players then they need to do it themselves.
When GB was going for the 2-point conversion the f*cken idiot, I use the term VERY loosely, ref, but in play a kicking ball. ARod told the "ref" "you gave me a kicking ball." Unreal.

Remember what I said? About the NFL controlling the games? You are now starting to learn. Fortunately i haven't bet this year. Just Fantasy.
Same here, and credos. I have not bet one game. Nor will I on this bull****. I'd love to see the wise guys start to take a hit on this. That'd change things in a ****ing hurry with POS Corrupt Rog. Too bad they made a freaking killing tonight with SEA covering on that ridiculous play.
Corrupt.
Corrupt.
I think it's a good question. It was the LAST PLAY OF THE GAME.
The normal letters are only apologies because they can't change the outcome. This seems different.

"What if this was a superbowl."
Awesome question by a caller.

Threw this together tonight. Still can't believe it.
"Inasmuch as we cannot change the outcome of the game, we issue this formal letter of apology for the incorrect call."
But what if the incorrect call WAS the outcome of the game?

Looking at the video GBP Rules put together, the guy who called the awful PI on Shields was the same guy who didn't call the push off on Shields and also signaled touchdown on the last play. Number 26.

incredible summary there...
The world needs to see that.
Oh wait. They did.
In fairness to the non-called offensive PI on the last play of the game, they are never called on a hail mary attempt. That's not to say it can't be called, but a hail mary is generally a free-for-all in the end zone.
For those that say MD should have knocked it down, sometimes that doesn't work either. The day before a pass was knocked down right in the hands of Titus Young for a game tying TD.
Man did GB get screwed here... **** me in the goat ass.

Back to the original thread title, is it even possible for the NFL to overturn this game?
The league can't overturn it without losing leverage to the real refs. It would weaken there position. They'd more easily overturn it if it had happened with real refs.
Now maybe if it had happened to the Giants or Patriots...
But the Packers? No way.

@adbrandt
In Green Bay we sometimes felt we didn't get same treatment from league due to not having an owner. They're probably feeling that now.

florio thinks so...
it'll never happen tho cuz the truth is dead. it's all smoke and mirrors... well, and ball bearings these days.
quote:And then thereâs the question of whether the NFL will change the outcome of the game. During last Fridayâs PFT Live, an astute reader asked via Twitter if the NFL would wipe out a game-deciding error by the officials. I explained that it would be possible only if a horrible call that determined the outcome occurred on the final play of the game.
Thatâs what happened last night â and the next question becomes whether the NFL will consider doing what everyone except Seattle fans would consider the right thing and wipe the touchdown off the board and call the final score Packers 12, Seahawks 7.

Reports are saying; 'the NFL will have an explanation of the last play' paraphrase
wonder what they are gonna say?

Yep, the NFL has hired Vince Mcmahon. He will come on to explain how his WWF refs arrived at their decision.
It's so bad Scott Walker called the league office and demanded the regular officials get a raise. 
"there's no way to change the outcome of a game"
yes clearly there is
yes clearly there is
@espn_macmahon: Jerry Jones: "I didn't see that ending last night." Said he got no calls.
