    And I think the offense choked and could have won the game. The Patriots exposed the Steelers worse than the Packers, earlier in the year. Brady and Gronkowski beat down the Steelers like an old rug. That was a whoopin'. Even Harrison got owned in that game. And the sad thing was... Patriots got annihilated by the Mangini-Browns the week before. :facepalm:

    Good point. We didn't field special teams or offense back in 2008. The defense was just that good. Tomlin read this and agrees with you. He wants another ring so he's going to send the offense and special teams home for the rest of the season since our D is all we need to win it all this year. :facepalm:

    They didn't get exposed. Aaron Rodgers was in a zone. Sometimes we just need to admit that the other players/teams played better.

    The secondary was exposed, they couldn't cover anybody, Harrison and Woodley were a nonfactor.

    Someone on Steelersdepot said there were mainly backups on that 19 play drive and when we put the main defense back on we got the int. Not sure how true that is

    But we only lost by 6 points and had a chance to win until Ben decided on triple-covered Wallace instead of wide open Heath Miller. But hey... look on the bright side... Brady lost 3 Super Bowls.

    Spillane was out there. Not sure if Terrell or Minka was sitting.

    The difference in the out come of the game were turnovers. Even with the Steelers' mistakes they had an opportunity to drive down the field in 2 minutes to have a chance to win the game.

    I still have a faint, miniscule, sub atomic headache from SBXLV. One of the worst beer hangovers I ever had.

    When Tomlin leaves it's a given. I've been conditioned by this board.
