ok veteran Steelers fans...

Agree ... not a top 5. Seen bigger games and more important comebacks against better competition. But, I will take this win

 

Pretty impressive especially against that defensive.

 

I've been watching the Steelers since the late 70s, and for me, this one probably ranks in the top 5 comebacks.

On a side note, this game was one of the ugliest I've seen that they ended up winning. My other favorite ugly game is when they beat the Dolphins 3 - 0 in 2007. That was the game where the ball literally got stuck in the mud on a kick (not the greatest quality video, but the best I could find)"

I have no idea where to rank it all time...

My memory is pretty hazy, or clouded by time passing, but in the distant past(70`s),
I don`t know how often we had to come back from more than 1 score behind...
I know we did it a few times, but more often, we DOMINATED games..
At least, regular season ones...

As far as since Ben`s been here, I seem to have a heart attack, more often than not, before we pull out the win...

Just think back to beating the Bungles 2 games ago in the last minute, or them giving us the game in the playoffs recentley, or,
(as has been mentioned), AB stretching over the goalline against the Cravens to get us in the playoffs last year!!!

Hell, Ben making the "Immaculate tackle", after Bettis fumbled against the Colts, isn`t exactly a "comeback" win,
but it was damn sure a game saving tackle!!!

I recall reading some stat about last weeks win putting Ben in some pretty good company, as far as "come from behind wins"...
I think he is now about top 5 or top 10 qb`s in that category...

ALL that means to me, is we`ve been behind on our last possesion more times, than we should be!!!
Thank God we have him, and the guts to stick together as a team, and keep fighting, until we get the win!!!

Sure, it was awesome to see him put the ball where it had to be for Santonio to make the catch, and win the SUPERBOWL..

But, honestly, I would prefer to watch games, where we have the lead, and can just run the ball down the other teams` throat,
as Bill Cowher, and the Bus, often did (Minus the fumble in Indy )...

GO STEELERS!

 

Yes the ball just dropped and plopped. First game against Porter as a Dolphin no? Ugly for sure but a W is a W or was a W.

 

Can’t believe I forgot about this game. This was awesome! Watching on my TV now.
