Best case scenario for the Steelers would be a missed field goal on this drive. Time is going to be a major factor soon, and a touchdown here = death.

Must score a touchdown, must do it leaving at least 4 minutes on the clock.

We're creeping into 'miracle' territory now. Maybe next year, Pittsburgh.

I say 7. If it opens at 4 it will be 7 before you can blink.

Ack. The one team I really didn't want to win the Super Bowl has a chance again. I've grown tired of the Massholes.

I'd be pissed if I was a Steeler season ticket holder over the past 10 years or so. That means you would have witnessed 4 Championship game losses. Ugh!

OK, now they just flashed a graphic about the most consecutive playoff wins, with Brady (currently) tied with 4 guys for 2nd with 7 wins. Then they said that he was tied with Aikman for most consecutive playoff wins to start a career - but didn't the Cowboys lose in the 1991 playoffs to the Lions? Did Aikman not start that game? Am I missing something?

Well, we're one game from legitimately throwing around the word 'dynasty.'

Speaking as a Pats fan, a rare un-classy move by Branch and Harrison. Uncalled for and uncool.

Steve Beurlein started. Aikman was injured.

edit: Aikman came off the bench, but I don't think that counts.

So for 2 weeks we are going to hear all about whether or not TO will play and whether or not this team is a dynasty and does Tom Brady = Joe Montana. Did I miss anything?

so can we all agree now not to bet against Bill Belichek in any given game. That was...an incredible game.

As Branch runs in, he waves bye-bye to the Steelers guy comin up.. and Harrison runs up and down the sideline (near the stands.. you know, Rodney, where people can say, THROW THINGS?) doing the same thing.

Philadelphia and New England Super Bowl,
I'll be rooting for the Eagles, they look to be more hungrier to win it all.

I guess that explains the outcome. Hey, the Lions need(ed) all the help they could get.

I would say I want to watch the "Big Game" for the commercials, but even those have sucked the last couple of years. Hmm, hopefully a friend will have a "Big Game" party with enough going on that I don't have to watch it.
