Me_2006 14 Posted February 2, 2009 They always over-dramatize the moment. This time last year the Steelers weren't even considered the best franchise in the NFL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoadLizard 73 Posted February 2, 2009 "the Steelers may be the model franchise in the history of American sports." They are a great salary cap / parity franchise. In any earlier era, they would be .500 at best. Thats the reality of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RoadLizard 73 Posted February 2, 2009 yeah, they're above the Yankees...cause the Steelers don't buy their Championships. No, even worse, the Steelers are handed their Championships on a silver platter due to shoddy competition they face in a talent-starved league. They're a run-of-the mill team that made a few plays and got a few breaks to get where they are. Arizona handed it to them with awful defense at the end. Thats the reality of it. You should Thank New England for Brady getting hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you recall hearing of this little era called the 70s? 4 SB wins in 6 years. I'm not sure, but I think that is better than .500....in years they won it all! Not just half their games.

This current Steeler team back than would have been .500 Those old Steeler teams WERE pretty cool. They stayed together for a while. Cant do that now. Freegin sucks, IMO.

Sooooo, even they beat all of their competition, they are handed the trophy on a silver platter? If there was a better team, why didn't they win it? 32 teams had a chance. 12 made the playoffs. Only 1 won all their games. That's how games are decided. They aren't handed out to anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FeelingMN 273 Posted February 2, 2009 The Steelers as a franchise DO deserve credit. To call them the best in all of sports is nothing but hyperbole. And I'm not saying the officiating was terrible per se, neither in this game or in SB XL, BUT the officiating was still a storyline in each game. It shouldn't be.
