The Steelers were a #6 seed and had all games on the road, so that will be tough to duplicate.
However, the Colts not coming in as the favorite with a much maligned defense has seemed to fire them up. Seems like the last two years, they came in as the favorite and just waited for Manning to light up 35 points. When it didn't happen they panicked. They played a very sound game against a very tough Ravens defense. Vinitieri is also a huge addition for them. Knowing you can get 3 every time you make it to the 30-35 yard line is huge as points can be at a premium sometimes in the playoffs.
