      Damn they weren't that bad lol. Great receiving core, HoF quarterback, darnell dockety, and a safety duo of Adrian Wilson and Antrel Rolle. They just had a shit run game and couldn't pressure the opposing quarterback at all so their defense had to rely on getting turnovers to stop touchdowns lol.

    James Harrison was actually recently on Big Ben's podcast Footbahlin with Roethlisberger and they talk about that play. Harrison said he was supposed to blitz on that play but decided not to before the snap and instead faked the rush and dropped into coverage. He said Kurt Warner was looking right at him but didn't see him because he knew Harrison was supposed to be blitzing. The rest of his breakdown of the play was also super good.

    The 2021 Cincinnati Bengals remind me of the 2008 Arizona Cardinals. A team that got hot, went on a run and fell just short. That 2008 Cardinals team lit a fire under the franchise to strive for greatness and they had a lot of great seasons afterwards. They just had a lot of bad fortune where they just get cold towards the end of the season in the entry bug would hit them like in 2014 they could have won the Super Bowl. Even in 2021 they had the hottest start. It would be a dream to see the Bengals and Cardinals in the Super Bowl.

Two of the greatest upsets of all-time also happened: Stanford beating #2 USC in a game the Trojans were favored by 41 to win, and probably the greatest upset so far this century - the then-FCS Appalachian State beating #5 Michigan at Michigan Stadium.

    My favorite part of that final throw to Santonio is that Ben had no reason to do it at all. He already had multiple defenders on him, and on the wide cam it looks like Mewelde Moore is wide open on the flat route for a walk in TD. Whether he was or not, it does seem like destiny was calling Santonio on that drive, and Ben sure knew how to put it right where only Santonio could have caught it, even if he had an easier throw.
    But hey, as a Steeler fan, I'm not complaining.
    Another fun fact is that Reggie Wells, #74, a guard for Arizona (and Pittsburgh native) was an assistant coach on my HS team for a year. Dude was so knowledgeable about the game and taught me more about being a lineman that year than all my other years combined. It's amazing how pros can grasp some of these crazy concepts and how smart they all are. Although simple relative to other HS teams, his knowledge made our playbook seem like it was the stuff 6 year olds ran. Always fun to watch him chugging down the field on that Harrison pick 6.

Everyone was forcing the chargers on to me since I was a kid and I just didn't like the way Philip Rivers threw the ball, that and the completely obnoxious fans. So I decided to give it one more chance and happened to tune into the 2008 AFC championship between The Steelers and The Ravens. I honestly despise the color yellow so much and have always preferred the defensive side of sports, so it was easy to choose who to root for in the game. I remember 2 or 3 cart offs, cold weather, a defensive slugfest. It was perfect. Decided then and there to be a Ravens fan because of their amazing defense and haven't looked back since.

    2008 was one of my favorite seasons to watch despite my favorite team-KC- only winning 2 games! My 2nd favorite team was Carolina whose season gets overlooked because of Delhomme's poor game vs Cardinals. They were fighting Bucs for division until Bucs fell off. Then had a chance for home field but lost in OT to Giants. And in final game Kasay made GW FG to to clinch FG over division over a surging Falcons team. Williams & Stewart made a great tandem too.

    too many weird things for that 2008 season:
    1. Forgotten Tom Brady and his team cant even make the playoffs with 11 wins lol
    2. 2000 yard runner with the AFC best team but didnt make it to the conference game
    3. 3 Bird teams playing at the conference game
    4. 4th seed hosting the NFC championship game because the 1st to 3rd seed all lost!! (is this the 1st time a 4th seed hosting a championship game??)
    5. 5th time Super Bowl Champs Pittsburgh Steelers become the 1st team to won......
    6. 6 Super Bowls!!!!

    10:33 No, that was because of a devastating hurricane that blew through Houston (Supposed to have faced the Texans that week) which resulted in the Ravens having a Week 2 bye and the game against the Texans moved to Week 10
    It honestly worked in our favor cos the team was hot late into that season for a playoff berth

    I was in 9th grade back then, and I was taking World History. I remember I called that NFL season “The French Revolution of football” 😁 Tyree & Burress had upended the Ancien Regime a few months earlier, and then suddenly all these random teams produced their own Reigns of Terror. It was a year where the unlikeliest thing always ended up coming true, right to the very end of SB43.
