I know there are a lot of disappointed Seahawks fans in Vancouver tonight but I am not one of them, I grew up in Ontario so I have no sentimnental attachment to Seattle teams. I was a big Raiders fan most of my life. I watched all the Steeler victories in the 70 during their hey day. I tried to root for the Hawks being their 1st time and all but still found myself rooting for guys like Jerome Bettis who was playing at home for perhaps his last game and Bill Cower whom I've alweays liked as a coach and thought he deserved a win too. It was a mediocre game at best with the most excitement coming from alternate interceptions and that gadget play TD by Pitsburg. So congrats Hawks on a great season and better luck nest year.
Steelers Win!

Pittsburgh and Cowler deserved the win based on their history together. Good times/ bad times, its taken quite a while for them to get back to the top. They've been through many promising years only to bow out early. This time, it was fairly clear which team was better. But as usual, they still had to show up and play hard the entire game, and they did. I believe Seattle will get there as Holmgren is a good coach but they are still fairly fresh at being an upper tier team. So, maybe next time.....
