Super Bowl XLIII: Pittsburgh Steelers VS Arizona Cardinals
There is much joy in Steel City this evening as the Pittsburgh Steelers out ran and out hit the Ravens, in a defensive game that was reminiscent of the old Steel Curtain days in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers ended the evening by beating Baltimore 23 to 14, and ending any hopes they may have had for a Super Bowl Sunday for this year at least.
Two weeks from now, Pittsburgh will meet the Arizona Cardinals head on in the Super Bowl in Tampa.
You absolutely have to love the irony of the match. Tomlin head to head with Whisenhunt, who was of course the offensive coordinator back when the Steelers won the last Super Bowl, who went with Arizona after he was passed by for the job at Pittsburgh.
Whisenhunt left, along with his aide de camp, Russ Grimm, when Tomlin was hired, which happened somewhat unexpectedly.
Pittsburgh will now head for their day in the sun.. Tampa sun that is, for their shot at the Super Bowl, but can they get the win?
The only teams so far who have won five Super Bowls are the “niners” or the 49ers, Dallas and the Steelers. Pittsburgh would be the first team to be six time winners, and at thirty something, Tomlin will be, if his team pulls it off, the youngest coach to ever head up a Super Bowl Team.
All in all it looks to be one of the most exciting games in years.
Are you going to be there?? Not if you don’t grab those tickets now you’re not. Pittsburgh is notorious for game sellouts. The Super Bowl won’t be any exception.
