Steel Curtain

The Steelers wore out the Chargers today and looked as they did in the pre season and the beginning of the year. They were hitting on all cylinders and I say bring on the Ravens. I'd love to head to the SuperBowl with 3 wins over Baltimore in one season. 8)

I hope we get a Steelers - Eagles Super Bowl, personally. I am pro-Ravens because of Ozzie Newsome and Laron McClain, but I just can't pull against the Steelers since the Dolphins are out of it.

Should be a fun game next week. I think Pittsburgh will win, but it will be close.

Kinda pulling for Baltimore a little though.

Being a Steeler fan my whole life, raised 90 miles from Pittsburgh, I'm a little bit concerned at trying to have to beat the Ravens 3 times in one year. Having said, that I'm glad we have them at Heinz Field which should be an advantage. I'm hoping for a Cardinals/Steelers Super Bowl. Cardinals have never been, plus Coach Whisenhunt was my choice for coach of the Steelers after Cowher resigned.

Having said that, I think the Steelers win by a Touchdown.

Based on the play of the remaining four in their last games, I pick the Steelers to win the Superbowl. And you don't know how much it pains me to say that. I would prefer either the Cardinals or Eagles.

Eagles scare me more than any team left as far as opponents for the Steelers. I don't like the Ravens but I know them well enough. The Eagles beat Pitt once this season and has a way of hammering teams. A Philly-Pittsburgh Superbowl would be interesting though.

I'm hoping for AZ and Pitt with a 5th trophy for the black and gold. :wink:

FQ - Are you a true Steeler fan? If so, you would have to realize that this would be the Steeler's 6th Lombardi Trophy.

4 under Chuck Noll and 1 with Bill Cowher. 75-76, 79-80, 2006.

Oh my I can't believe I said 5. That was a typo. I am a fan believe me. 5-6 in SuperBowls with the lone loss to the Cowgirls mostly due to Neil O'Donnel's 2 interceptions to Larry Brown. Don't get me wrong I love O'Donell but is sure looked like he was throwing right to Brown both times.

You mean 5-1 in Superbowls right. The Steelers have been to six superbowls winning 5 of them.

Yep, Neil O'Dummy as we always called him.. :lol: :lol:

I'll be rooting for a Ravens Vs NFC matchup myself. The Squealers should win this out, though.
