Kordell Stewart: "sometimes the best team doesn't win". He said it several times. Quite ironic for a couple reasons. First, the NFL demands you play your best EVERY game in the post season. No "best of" series. One game elimination. "Best" means the BEST for THAT GAME. Not in some imaginary dream world when you can play when your REALLY READY. Second, it's ironic because HE is the reason the Steelers fell short. Two interceptions in your last three tosses proves he is NOT A BIG GAME QB. Period. Too bad he chose to take out his frustration by showing his lack of intelligence.

At least Kordell can take a hit unlike the two pansy's Brady and Bledsoe.

Would that be the Brady and Bledsoe that KICKED PITTSBURGHS ASS????! Or perhaps you were referring to some imaginary Brady an Bledsoe that the Steelers had a chance against in your dream world...

SCOREBOARD!! Brady and Bledsoe have a chance for the ring. Kordell will forever be haunted by his inability to perform when the chips were down.

Until you win four titles or more you are not worth noting as being in the same league as the Steeler's, 49r's, Cowboys, oh yeah the Ram's come Sunday!

I'm sorry. I didn't realize this was the "Classic Sports" forum. I thought it was a forum about sports TODAY. Wake up. It's 2002. The Superbowl is this Sunday. Just because the team you supported didn't win is no reason to live exclusively in the past. By the way, those are groovy bell bottoms you're wearing, you cool cat.

Granted Kordell can't perform when under pressure but the loss wasn't all his fault. I'd have to say one of the biggest plays (New England's 1st score), if not the biggest, was Pittsburgh punting down the middle of the field from their own end-zone to Troy Brown, who I believe is going to the pro-bowl for his special-teams play. At that point in the game New England wasn't moving the ball very well against the Pittsburgh 'D' thus Pittsburgh should have punted toward the sidelines, like they originally intended. You think this is why they fired their Special-Teams coach yesterday?

As quoted from ESPN.com

"To beat a top Super Bowl team, you have to have the best of the best. The Rams have been peaking for the past three years. They've won a Super Bowl two years ago and scored 500-plus points a season for the past three years. They have some of the best offensive talent in this era, enough talent to start to put the Rams in the same category as the 49ers and Cowboys, those multiple Super Bowl winners.

Al Davis used to say that in certain years, you can steal a Super Bowl. When top teams surface, that doesn't happen. The Steelers won all four of their Super Bowl games. The 49ers won five."

The Rams will dominate..............sorry!

The Rams are indeed the favorite on paper. But so were the Raiders and steelers. The game is not played on paper. If this game were played on natural grass I'd bet the house on the Pats. But since it's indoors on turf, I'll have to take the points. By the way, for the record, the steelers did NOT win all of their SB trips. Just ask Dave Brown, who was apparently Neil O'Donnels "go to guy"...

Tailgater, Larry Brown was the Cowboy DB who picked Ole Neily's passes. And your right on paper the Rams are the better team but they play these games for a reason. Are the Rams undefeated this season, last time I checked they had a few losses so they are beatable. Hey you never know.

Umm You need to rechack the Superbowl stats...The Rams have only been to TWO Superbowls 1980 (a Loss) and 2000 (a win). In Mississippi that equals 2 and if you add the one they are attending this year that makes 3. Unless the math is different for Steeler's fans there is no way humanly possible for this to become the Rams fourh win in the big game. And to top it off they haven't even won it yet. They may be expected to win but then again so were the Steelers and the Raiders...and look where they are.

To quote Rick "The Nature Boy" Flair, All Time great Professional Wrestling Champion, "You gotta beat the Man, if you want to BE the Man"! The Rams can be beat!
