Mike Shanahan is a great coach and is responsible for bringing NFC style smash-mouth football to the AFC. John Elway was a great QB. Red Miller and the the Orange Crush "D" of the 1970`s were awesome.

That's all the good about the Broncos I can muster.

Having lived in Colorado since the mid-70`s, I can attest to the fact that Bronco fans are total jerks.

Glad to see Pittsburg in the SB, but they'll have their hands full with the Seahawks. Hopefully, we'll have a good game to watch.

GO G-MEN!!!

Geee....did you watch the NFC game last night or were you too busy snorting Jell-O through your nose, is that why you're barfing now?

Seems to me the HAWKS scored 34 points. Could have scored more but they sat on the ball at the end.

More superbowl predicts:

Sean Alexander has a career game. Besides the bus, who is only a short yardage threat, falls apart. Does Pitt have a running threat? I think not. And Ben, won't be surprising anyone this time...if he comes out throwing. The HAWKS corners make him pay...he throws three pics, due to being hurried cuz the O-Line can't contain the pass rush. STEELERS play tough but lose.

No go buy yourself some tissue...kiddo.

KO'ing Denver was not a hard task, even the 49ers could have beaten them.

Pitt is a good team. Hard to pick one to root for but I hope and think the Seahawks will win.

Oxygen, huh? Thanks for the omission, sorry about your birth condition, did it take you long to get out of kindergarten? I think so.

I'll post back to you after the game is over on this thread, and see if you need for me to get you a prescription for Prozac after the STEELERS lose.

Remember dail-a prayer is available 24/7/365.

I heard about 8,000 Steeler fans were at the game.

I can understand the Hawks fans' excitement. After 40 years of Super Bowls, the Hawks finally made one. Kind of like Moses wandering in the desert.

You know the NFC is in trouble if the lousy Seahawks can get to the SB.

Steelers 28, Hawks 10

As an old Oilers fan who's team never made it and never will. I'm happy for ya. However I think the steelers defense is too tough for the Seahawks. I'd still like to see the hawks win! Good luck.

"The Bus will run out of gas. Hawks Win 33-21."

Reality is an unacceptable concept for some in our society.

After dismantling the second, third and fourth best teams in the NFL, I just hope the Hawks can bring enough to the game to keep it from being boring.

It'd be a shame for people to spend a weekend in New Fallujah and be filing out in the middle of the third quarter because the game is already over.

But for those of us watching from the comfort of home, that will be just fine.

I could be like Tom Brady and claim no Respect...which would be true in our case...but I'm content to let the media talk up the Steelers and declare the game over. The pundits are no more relevant in the sports world then they are in the political world.

Congratulations SEAHAWKS! Work hard and Get it Done!

BTW... anyone else watching the Steelers game think that Phil simms is a complete idiot? How did this guy ever manage to win a Super Bowl?

With the Broncos trailing and time starting to get short, he basically says that Denver has to start being more aggressive about going deep. Which of course was bad advice -- what Denver needed was to focus on picking up first downs and using the clock more wisely. Changing your gameplan to a desparation "go deep" strategy leads to spectacular turnovers.

Then of course, as soon as Plummer starts forcing the ball downfield, Simms criticizes him for not throwing to guys who were open on shorter routes. Inconsistent diot.

Of course, as a Steeler fan, I was more than happy for Plummer to have done exactly the stupid thing Simms suggested, with the predicable result.
