The Five Trophy Club

[BigDPlayer]

Well, as much as I hate it, looks like the Pittsburgh Steelers are finally members of the five trophy club. Membership now includes:

Dallas Cowboys
San Francisco 49ers
Pittsburgh Steelers

This trophy belongs to Bill Levy and his crew, I won't be recognizing Pitt as having more than 4 rings

 

[BigDPlayer]

I hear ya. . . and the worse part of it is Pitt has a strong foundation for future runs. Let's hope Dallas can build up the OLine and Kicker and get us back in the hunt!

Pittsburgh won this game even with the bad calls. They absolutely dominated Seattle.

I wouldn't go that far. Yes, the refs made some bad calls, but Pitt made the plays when they had to, Seattle didn't. They had opps, but didn't take advantage of them, even w/o the Refs giving their nudges...

Pitt got their 5, but the question is who will be next to get that 6th.

Everytime Seattle got something going they got something called to kill momentum. the invisible holding penalty, DJacks TD being taken away. Heck even the penalty on Hass for tackling the ball carrier set Pitt up for the trick play.

I'm not disputing that. But they had two other shots at the end zone after that DJack play and he was open but the ball was caught out of bounds both times.

I'm like this, the players have to overcome the officials. They didn't. They also got away from what worked for them to get them to the SB. They were passing way too much. When they went back to it, it was actually too late, IMO.

We need to get our act together and get #6 mucho Quick

 

[The30YardSlant]

With now 3 teams having 5 SB titles and Pittsburgh poised to get their 6th long before us, all those titles seem alot less magical than it did 4 hours ago....

 

[locked&loaded]

but we didnt ahve the refs five it to us.....

how do 5 Lombardi's seem any "less magical" at this moment vs 12 hours ago?

ROTFLMAO at the absurdity.

 

[Cbz40]

Agree....5 Lombardi's is 5 Lombardi's......the value hasn't changed. We simply need to be the first to get #6.

yeah, but give us one or two OL in the offseason and I am no way afraid of playing Pittsburgh. They are not impressive in any way. Give Seattle a WR that could catch and a ref crew that didn't bet against them and they win the game. That was a weaka** suckfest of a SB. Both offenses were lame. Alexander was lame in a big game...again.
Why does Holmgren lose his sack in the 4th and punt the ball with 5 minutes left?
I want either team next year, they're both lame and deserve a severe drubbing after forcing us to watch them instead of good teams play in the SB.

She has a fine grasp on the nitty gritty. Yup the Steelers won. They did it the old fashioned way. Scoring more points than they gave up. Can the Boys do this is the $94,000 question now. It isn't a few lineman, a FS and a QB and some WRs. Cause we can't get all that in one season. So what will Bill do to get us back to competing. Beating the skinz, iggles and gints home and away. Wining more than half our road games. The future is now ladies and gentlemen.

That simply isn't true. Seattle clearly out played Pittsburgh in the first half.

 

[Catch-22]

The three best franchises in the NFL all have 5 rings, I'm OK with that

If two of them are the niners and steelers I am not. Dallas has been there 8 times, I wish we had more.

 

[The30YardSlant]

SF is not one of the 3 greatest franchises ever. Outside of one 15 year stretch from 1981-1995, they have done virtually nothing in their franchises history. Pittsburgh and Dallas were both great from the late 60s-early 80s and throughout the 90s.

Hell, Miami has been better more often than SF. And lets not forget, SF bought their 5th title in 1995, and still needed a lot of luck and bad calls to ebat Dallas.

 

[Bizwah]

I don't have a problem with it.

They're a great franchise.

But this game was lousy.....Pitt won the game....but had lots of help. Hey, it happens.

I don't think Pitts will be around as long as people think. Especially, if there's no more salary cap. This may be the last hurrah for Pitt if there's no cap.
