[quote=firstdown;524153]People said the same thing about the Giants last year and they got hot at the right time and we know how that turned out. It does not matter how a team gets to the SB its what they do when they get there. Who's still talking about the Pats winning all but one game last year. No one well maybe a few people.[/quote]

My post was to refute 2 points.
The first point was that the Steelers D carried the team and I was showing the numbers say they didnt.

The second point was that AZ beat a bunch of pretty good teams in the regular season and I was pointing out that they only beat 2.

I agree that it doesnt matter how a team gets there as long as they are there. If they are there they can win.

Gotta go with the Cards for all of the above stated reasons. Pittsburg is a class organization, but I can't say the same about their fans.

Everytime Fitz gets a ball thrown to him, I say, "you can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him!" Damn, I wish that guy was on our team.

[quote=irish;523638]First off if a team is in the super bowl they deserve it. However, if either of the current super bowl teams doesnt deserve it its the Cards. The won the easiest division in the NFL with a 9-7 record. The Steelers were 12-4 and a top seed in the playoffs. Dont forget also that the Steelers played most of the season without a running game due to injuries and still managed to win 12 games. Its not that they dont have an offense, it that the O has had a lot of injuries.

AZ is a great story and have been hot but now they have had to take 2 weeks off and I think that 2 weeks will cool them off.[/quote]

After much thought, this too is what I believe. Somewhere in that 9-7 Card record is a loss to the Burgandy and Gold, and somewhere in that 12-4 Steelers record is a huge win over our very same B&G at our place! I'm using that as my standard. My eighteen year old parrot is rooting for the Cards, but he's a birdbrain!
