Scouts Inc.: Pittsburgh defeated divisional rival Baltimore for the third time this season to advance to the franchise's seventh Super Bowl appearance. The Steelers have won five of their six appearances, including Super Bowl XL three years ago. This team features many of the same players, but has a different persona. The Cardinals' franchise history is very different. Much like the Super Bowl champions from the previous three years, the Cardinals have caught fire at the right time. Two years ago, the Cardinals' current head coach, Ken Whisenhunt, and the Cardinals' current assistant head coach, Russ Grimm, were with the Steelers organization and were finalists to be Bill Cowher's successor. They both lost out to Mike Tomlin, but still have a great understanding of the Steelers franchise -- including how to attack their personnel, especially QB Ben Roethlisberger and the offensive line. Meanwhile, if Tomlin wins this game, he will become the youngest NFL head coach ever to win the Super Bowl.

wait, the NFL is still going on?

I'd like to think that the Cardinals are going to at least cover...this is a tough one.

Steelers!!!!

u2sarajevo · 01-29-2009, 10:34 PM

Cardinals!!!!!~~~~

Cardinals 100% - Fitz is my boy after this fantasy season!

(and Warner is a nice story, but mainly because I don't want the Steelers getting that 6th ring before the Cowboys!)

I don´t know which team could win. But somehow i don´t expect a big game.

I have been a Mavs fan for 26 years, but I have been a Cards fan since 1968! Just hope the Cards can do what my Mavs have to do so far. Go Cards!!

Ninkobei · 02-01-2009, 08:40 AM

I still cant believe the cardinals are in the superbowl. The cardinals?!?! honestly

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 08:53 AM

3 mn. $ for 30 seconds advertiser is rather expensive. Crisis anyone ? Obviously not for the NFL.

Flacolaco · 02-01-2009, 05:06 PM

I both love and hate Super Bowl Sunday.

I hope for a good game tonight. That's all, I don't care who wins. But I mourn the loss of the NFL for 7 months.

And for the love of pete, it's Super Bowl Sunday....stop talking about tennis.

MavsWiLLHaVeRinGs · 02-01-2009, 05:15 PM

The Cards remind me of the Mavs Finals team from 2006. The loveable losers who finally make it to the big dance, but ultimately come up short.

jthig32 · 02-01-2009, 06:20 PM

This is one of my favorite days of the year, because football talk is about to be over, the NBA is about to take center stage, and pitchers and catchers report in two weeks.

horse900703 · 02-01-2009, 07:58 PM

Wow, that was amazing!!

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 08:03 PM

Unbelievable. What a mess for Warner and the audience.

BGMaverick9 · 02-01-2009, 08:08 PM

I'd still take +7 for the cards right now

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 08:09 PM

That return by harrison was exceptional. He is a better athlete than you.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 08:16 PM

He wasn´t unstopable. Pretty crappy D behavior during his run.

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 08:17 PM

The Boss > Janet Jackson's nipple

Flacolaco · 02-01-2009, 08:27 PM

The cardinals beat themselves. They didn't look ready at all

Deja Vu

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 08:38 PM

Don´t know ? Was it incomplete ? I tend to incomplete pass..

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 09:29 PM

I'm a little in love with Larry Fitzgerald.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 09:38 PM

Holding holding holding. Cardinals are nuts...

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 09:44 PM

Steelers should take a safety - cards still need a touchdown, but they'll get worse field possession off the free kick.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 09:46 PM

What was the violation thet lead to the safety ?

FINtastic · 02-01-2009, 09:48 PM

Wild end to this game going on.

And Fitz is nuts.

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 09:49 PM

I'm so in love with Larry Fitzgerald.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 09:49 PM

Fitzgerald --> MVP

FINtastic · 02-01-2009, 09:49 PM

I'm pretty sure if the Cowboys used all that TO and Roy money on Fitz instead we would still come out ahead.

Offensive holding -- Offensive holding or intentional grounding in the endzone are both automatic safeties.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 09:50 PM

I had never never ever expected this to become such an entertaining game. Never.

FINtastic · 02-01-2009, 09:51 PM

Let's hope the Arizona defense can do better in crunch time than the Dallas defense did against Big Ben.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 09:53 PM

Roethlisberger under pressure is awesome.

Flacolaco · 02-01-2009, 09:55 PM

so much time left

FINtastic · 02-01-2009, 09:58 PM

Well crap, that looks like ballgame.

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 10:01 PM

wow

FINtastic · 02-01-2009, 10:02 PM

35 seconds for Arizona to score a touchdown.

Looks like Pittsburgh just won it's 6th Super Bowl.

GermanDunk · 02-01-2009, 10:07 PM

Think this game is done. If Cards loose, they loose it by their stupid penalties

alexamenos · 02-01-2009, 10:10 PM

Best super bowl since last year.
