Re: "This Was the XFL" on ESPN's 30 on 30 tonight
As both a football and WWF/WWE fan I had to give it a chance. I think I gave up after hearing Brian Bosworth get way too excited about a field goal in the middle of a game. Looking back I should've known it would fail when Vince McMahon first talked about it. "Where's my wide open smash mouth f...

Re: Your Unpopular Football Opinions
The Rose Bowl should be the permanent Super Bowl site. How there hasn't been one played there in almost 25 years is beyond me.

Re: Best pair of games between division opponents in same se
1986 Steelers vs Browns. Both games made the NFL Game of the Week that season. First game was the first time Cleveland won in Three Rivers Stadium and the second went to overtime.

Super Bowl XVI question
The NFL Films highlights of this game show this blueish-gray haze in the Silverdome that makes everything look pretty drab. But when they show a clip from earlier in the season when the 49ers played the Lions it's clear. Pictures from the game are more clear and colorful but there's still a little h...

Re: How will history judge the Cowher/Tomlin era Steelers?
I have come to the conclusion that although Art Rooney was a great guy by all accounts, and did a lot for the team, his son's legacy has surpassed him. I think in the future Art Rooney will be fondly remembered as the founder of the Steelers, but Dan Rooney will be remembered as the most important ...

How will history judge the Cowher/Tomlin era Steelers?
Yeah they won 2 Super Bowls and appeared in a 3rd but they didn't beat New England to get to any of them. Were they lesser than the teams that did beat New England in the postseason during the same time? The 2005 Broncos? The 2006 Colts? The 2009 Ravens? The 2010 Jets? The 2012 Ravens? The 2013, 201...

Re: 1970-74 NFL Playoff site schedule
What I never understood is why the NFL decided to set up the playoffs this way. And why it took them 5 years to realize its much more logical just to give the better team home field advantage. But maybe that is all explained in Ivan's book which I've been meaning to get for awhile. :) I think they ...

Don't be sorry. He played a really good game on a broken ankle. Probably the only time he showed any leadership.superbowlfanatic wrote: XXXIX: Terrell Owens (sorry, everyone)

Re: Favorite One-Hit Wonder Team/Player?
Barry Foster. Still holds the Steelers single season rushing record with 1690 yards in 1992. His 1993 season was cut short due to injury. He split carries with rookie Bam Morris in 1994. The Panthers pick him up in 95 only to cut him in training camp. He signs with the Bengals then retires.

Re: Steelers Chiefs game being rescheduled due to weather
Here's what it looked like a few hours ago. That's a quarter inch of ice. They did the right thing.
