I have always loved the Steelers too. They have a certain mystique and presence on the field. Chuck Noll was a great coach and Cowher is my kind of guy...he just needs a few more strategy points added to his "profile" if you know what I mean.
However, I have lived right down the road from Foxboro most of my life and have lived and died (mostly died) with the Patriots for 30 years. I am enjoying these golden seasons now more than I can say.
I'm really glad for you. Really!
I'm of course bummed that we lost again to you, but I'd rather be beat by the Patriots than anyone else. You guys play tough AND intelligent football. It's a real joy to watch you beat people, watching you beat the Colts however was WAY more enjoyable than this past Sunday! Watching you beat the Colts, I swear, was like watching the Steelers dismantle a good team.
I think you have a 90% chance of winning this Super Bowl, and as long as Brady and Belichick are around you'll always be right there. Good luck
I still wish Cowher had gone for the TD on the two yard line. He took the game out of the hands of the players right then, imo. It sucked, but you guys are so precise and at the same time physical, that you more likely would have won the game anyhow. (Tears)
