Comment on Holmes Among a Few Players Already Talking Super Bowl for the Steelers by Brian

No one since the Broncos? They won SBs XXXII and XXXIII (1997 and 1998). But the Pats also had back-to-back wins, and did so in this decade: SBs XXXVIII and XXXIX (2003 and 2004).

Oh, how it pained me to write that.

Man, I hope the Steelers win two or three more Lombardis before the Pats can even contend for another one.

The Angels and Hurricanes ranked above the Steelers??? Is that a joke?? The Crapaliers in 5th??? I agree with most of the list but these rankings are confusing.

Clark has earned his stripes. However we have to think of future in that postion and other players that have been more of a impact on the team a 2 year deal max. I beleive we will get a Ed Reed in that position to hold it down even better plus didn’t we pick up a FS last year in the draft?

Harm:
Ask anybody outside of Steelernation who would’ve won a Steelers-49ers SB that year.

Nobody, but nobody, would have beaten the ‘49ers that day. Nobody. Steve Young and Co. were at the top of their game and they had one mission–exorcise the ghost of Joe Montana.

You guys should thank the Chargers for winning that AFC Championship and saving the Steelers the embarrassment.

That’s what happens when fans get overconfident and the media plays it up. Nobody, but nobody, should ever disrespect a team like people did the Chargers that day. Why else could you ‘hear nothing but the Chargers celebrating’ after Dennis Gibson knocked down that pass?

That was the problem. Nobody gave the Chargers a chance and, voila, the “impossible” happens.

The Chargers did the same thing to the Patriots back in ‘06. The Chargers were clearly the best team in football that year and had the same sort of hype the Steelers did in ‘94, yet oops. They got too cocky. They had a media bandwagon ready to drive to the SB and, well, the rest in history.

Moral o’ the story? Any given Sunday.

I agree so long as other more important things happen first such as Heath Miller (that didn’t happen already did it..am in a masters program and haven’t been able to keep up with everything)…Don’t care if FWP isn’t resigned…only so much money to go around…but either Hampton OR Keisel need to either be extended and/or franchised next year as well. If Sweed and Thomas (what is the 3rd round WR pick’s name?) KSA and perform well, will we extend Holmes after next year???

i think the ambassadorship to a volitale country is complexing. i see no scenario that will improve this country’s way of thinking, and therefore find mr. rooney in a dangerous situation. what does dan need to prove. he is 76 for petesakes!

Great! Ryan Clark has earned this. He has played well and is an enforcer in the secondary. He is a prefect compliment to Troy.
