Iceman, they could've easily overcome those mistakes. The one they couldn't overcome was a Mendenhall fumble in the 4th qtr, while driving for the go ahead score and having all the momentum. Rashard just proved he's NOT a big time back, gimme a Franco Harris or Jerome Bettis any day of the week (twice on Sunday).
Steelers draft needs in order of importance: 1) CB, 2) OL, 3) RB
If we can pick up 1 starter at each of those positions the Steelers will be set for a good part of the next decade.

Props to Mike Mc Carthy and Dom Capers for having the skills to lead a team with 9 injured starters (through out the year) to the NFL championship! Whether you like the Packers or not, you have to appreciate their resolve! Go Pack Go!

I am not a Packer fan (obviously), but give them much props. I like Rodgers as a player and I'm glad he'll hopefully never be in #4's shadow again

Really?
Rookie of the year 2004
Superbowl Champion 2006, his Rookie season as a starter, second season overall, youngest QB ever to win the Superbowl
Superbowl Champion 2009, played with two broken ribs
3 Perfect games (158,3 rating)
-> Thirty-five different quarterbacks have had a "perfect game" since the advent of passer ratings in 1973. Seven men have achieved the feat more than once: Peyton Manning has thrown four, Ben Roethlisberger and Kurt Warner have thrown three...
plus some records and a Probowl selection...
6 seasons, three Superbowls with two wins...

Congrats to the Pack, if nothing else Rodgers finally got the 800lb gorilla named Favre off his back
Hopefully the Steelers address the secondary and get a real running back (meaning not one who will fumble when you have all the momentum in the 4th qtr of a friggin Super Bowl!!!) in the draft.
I think I heard a brainfart from somewhere in Nebraska, good thing no one gives a shit what happens in Nebraska

Hmm he was 8th in the regular season
http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorysta...2&d-447263-n=1
Oh and he was SECOND in the post season.
Maybe you should be mad at Troy and Harrison for the lack of plays. The big play guys showed up for GB and they didnt for the Steelers. The real defensive player of the year Clay Mathews showed up while Jordy Nelson (LOL) and Greg Jennings exposed Troy all night. Mendenhall also averaged 4.5 yards a carry and had a real nice TD run.

"2. Rashard Mendenhall lost this game more than anyone for Pittsburgh. With his second lost fumble in three games this postseason, Mendenhall showed he's a nice running back but not a great one. On the first play of the fourth quarter, the Steelers looked like they were on the verge of taking the lead for the first time in the game. Down 21-17 with the ball at the Packer 33, Roethlisberger handed the ball to Mendenhall, who looked for a hole off right guard. He found one -- but then got the ball punched out and lost it. Green Bay recovered and scored the clinching touchdown eight plays later. "It just happened and should not have happened,'' he said. Of the loss, Mendenhall said, "We did it to ourselves.''
Mostly, Mendenhall did it to his team. That's about as big a turnover, at as crucial a time, as a player can have."

While the link above is just a sampling (2004-07), Big Ben still maintains a top 5 YPA of over 8 - which put's him higher than some Hall of Famers, Steve Young, Joe Montana, etc

Jim Kelly > Fat Ben
Rings arent a way to measure individuals. They are a TEAM accomplishment. I will give it to Ben for his performance against the Cardinals but lets be real that defense was trash.

Do you honestly watch football? Rashard Mendenhall is the reason the steelers were playing in the super bowl. He carried the team past the ravens and lead this team all year when rapeleisburger was sitting out.

If we want to play that game then we can say all those dropped balls the packers had should of lead to atleast an extra 10 points. The missed field goal was a terrible call. Shaun Suisham hasnt made a single field goal of 50 or longer this ENTIRE SEASON. He didnt even have a job half the year because hes terrible. He almost missed an extra point and you let him try a 52 yarder? lol
Ben "won" his first super bowl with a qb rating of 35. The lowest qb rating to ever win a super bowl. Last night his qb rating was 69. So basically he tore apart a terrible Cardinals defense in his only good super bowl performance. Ben has been out played in every super bowl hes played in. I havent figured out why everything thinks this rapist is top 5 in the NFL.

So, because his rating was bad the win doesn't count... or what?
There are others like my friend Jake Delhomme who had a great rating but didn't win it... In the end it's only important to win...
Calling Ben Roethlisberger a rapist is so uncalled for...
#550
I know there are others that have had great ratings and lost. Kurt Warner is a perfect example vs. the steelers. He threw for 377 yards and 3 tds but lost. I just cant stand that people want to crown Ben and say hes elite. He is no where near elite.
