These Eagles were the eventual NFC champions and had the best record in their conference, yet the Steelers were able to push them around like a last-place team.
The Steelers were the rightful AFC representative. I know the "they cheated" narrative against the Pateiots is tired. But this was 04 and it was proven a couple seasons later that the Patriots knew all the Steelers hand signals, calls, and allegedly even had their playbooks.
@@1990Thunderbolt bruh, they had 9 pro bowlers, and a great defense. They beat the patriots, who were riding a 21 game winning streak, and the 7-0 eagles. Both teams made it to the super bowl. Pittsburgh had some standout guys like hines ward, troy polomalu, Joey Porter, and Jerome bettis
@@cjvaye99 exactly. Take a look at my 2007 Patriots for example. We set a perfect 16-0 regular season record, then Eli and the giants happened! Doesn’t matter what the record saids you are if you don’t win the 🏆💍.
I was at the game where the Steelers stopped the pats winning record, then they had to play the iggles who also had a winning record, was there for both games..love my Steelers!
That game was such a statement from the steelers defense. James Farrior one of the most underrated player ever, he read offences like a book, that's why he was still a NFL LB starter at 35yo.
Might be my favorite Steelers team ever…and I have watched them since 1973. I’ll never forget Philly linebacker saying after this game..I’ve never played in a game when the other team just took your manhood…😂
@@tynao2029 what? It was week 7 or 8. The eagles had not clinched anything. As far as being stronger..the Steelers won Two SBs in 2005 and 2008. This particular season the Steelers went 15-1 but lost to NE. I think you are confused with maybe the 80s because that’s the only decade you can say the eagles were stronger. Or maybe the past five years you could say that.
@@tynao2029 you obviously don’t know football. In the 90s the Steelers played in a SB and the AFC title game three times. Philly….zero. In the 2000s the Steelers won two SBs and played in three AFC title games. Philly played in four but lost three.then lost the SB. Steelers had the best record in the NFL 2004. Philly never had the best record that decade. I’ll stop there. There is a reason why the Steelers have won 6 SBs and Philly only one.
1:57:14 That's what total domination looks like. Those stats, 72 plays! and neary 40 minutes of possession 😱 The Steelers offense controlled the ball for like 3 quarters worth lol
Collinsworth. "He still doesn't know what h'es doing"...Ben still won more Super Bowls that you Chris. He still can't get over how many times the Steelers kicked his but with the Bengals.
TO became a bobble head with 2 catches hamming it up for the closest camera & McNabb brought TO’s relevance in this game back to Zero. 😂 Throw me the ball. Throw me the ball. Bhahahaha. TO drops a perfectly thrown pass & then tripped over his own feet & fell down. Lol😂
More like the PATRIOTS gave us a reality check in the AFC Championship. Tom Brady was good in that game but not great. We lost because of turnovers. The Patriots defense won that game for them.
For some mind numbing reason, LeBeau who had changed his signals in game 1 v NE, went back to the old ones in the title game. NE had a spotter who would then tell offensive genius Charlie Weiss what D the Steelers were in.
Ben got tackled by his ankles to many times he lost his ability to rollout and create space he still better than most QBs playing today in 2023 ben was the shit sux to have him retire should have kept him around for 3rd string qb 😢
The interesting thing about the NFC is I believe the it had suffered from the whole Dallas, Green Bay, 49er and somewhat Rams dominance. I remember the Giants lost their way during that time and Coughlin had to get them back on track. I think the AFC in the late 90’s decided to stick to physical football and it carried over. As a Giants fan I enjoyed the AFC games more.
@@ccth22 it was just a matter of time the conference power shifted to the AFC's side. they're still going strong to this day with the mahomes led chiefs, lamar's ravens, allen's bills and now trevor lawrence with the jaguars. the afc conference have a brighter future than the nfc. just saying.
"nothing but sitting ducks"? The Eagles , in the Super Bowl , just lost by three points to the Patriots. That's it. The Saints, won against a couple of AFC Teams in 2004.
Yeah the only team that was expected to deliver and did indeed were those philly eagles. The other teams - the packers and Seahawks certainly did and make it to the playoffs, but not to the level the eagles did
I have never liked Hines Ward, and yes, it is entirely because of him mocking TO's wing flaps in this game. Though to be fair we deserved to be mocked for such a turd performance.
I didnt like Hines Ward either but TO is an even bigger ahole. at least Hines was a team player. he was just a douche to other teams sometimes but you gotta respect he never made it about him it was always about the team. TO was a douche and also a locker room cancer.

Thanks you tee
That's because they weren't playing hard enough. This game brought them back to reality.
@@nick56677 Lolol so wrong. Brady owned the steelers ass period. Stop whining.
Remember the game where Carson wentz destroyed the Steelers way worse than this? 2016 34-3
The 2004 steelers were one of best teams to not make the super bowl
Not making it to the super bowl with a 15-1 record.

One of the best Steelers games in history and you gotta hear Joe Buck and Chris Collinsworth 😂😂 2 of the biggest Steeler haters

He began his NFL career with the New York Jets 😊
The Steelers were an average team compared to the Eagles of that era. The Eagles were just not trying because they already clinched the playoffs
@@tynao2029you can’t be serious. Please make the case.
Wish the Steelers still had some of those players like Buttis and Burgess.
Is it me, or does it kinda seem like Troy Aikman and Chris Colinsworth don’t much like each other?

48:36 The beginning of the T.O. vs McNabb feud
The end of TO!

This is awsome thanks for posting
Steelers ended the longest win streak in the NFL for the second week in a row.
It's crazy, Pittsburgh has NOT won a game in Philadelphia since 1965. Obviously this game was played in Pittsburgh.
Collinsworth. "He still doesn't know what h'es doing"...Ben still won more Super Bowls that you Chris. He still can't get over how many times the Steelers kicked his but with the Bengals.
This game woke the Eagles up that year.
The Steelers were an average team compared to the Eagles of that era. The Eagles were just not trying because they already clinched the playoffs
i love how thicc the shoulder pads used to be
Ben put the final nail in Tommy Maddox's career!
Seems like everytime Owens played against the Steelers, he had a meltdown on the sidelines
I want to see more of his meltdowns against the Steelers
@VanillaLimeCoke Check the Cowboys vs. Steelers 2008. Bengals vs. Steelers in Pittsburgh 2010.
Deuce Staley’s neck holy mother of pearl
I absolutely hate that this was nearly 20 years ago. Wtf.
Game that got hyped up as a good game that ended up being a blowout
First time Ben played, and beat the Eagles. ❤
I figured u were a Steelers fan
Ben always needed the refs to get a W, and this game was no exception. He was like the white Mahomes
The play calls on the opening drive was superb
12:05 famous celebration to diss TO when he was with the Eagles. Week before TO had beaten the Ravens and did the Ray Lewis dance.
Ya cant help but laugh at collinsworth. The guy watches football for a living but never saw a hole that big!! 🤣🤣🤣
Still a record for beating undefeated teams that far into the season.
Cowher Power
Steeler nation ⚫🟡
Dang, Ben was a youngin. Used to be pretty good looking
TO became a bobble head with 2 catches hamming it up for the closest camera & McNabb brought TO’s relevance in this game back to Zero. 😂
Throw me the ball. Throw me the ball. Bhahahaha. TO drops a perfectly thrown pass & then tripped over his own feet & fell down. Lol😂
I remember after this game we thought a Super Bowl win was guaranteed. Tom Brady gave us a reality check in the Championship game 🤦♂️.

For some mind numbing reason, LeBeau who had changed his signals in game 1 v NE, went back to the old ones in the title game. NE had a spotter who would then tell offensive genius Charlie Weiss what D the Steelers were in.

Why isn't LC Greenwood in the Hall of Fame 😠
Damn Good Point. Go STEELERS 😊
Sam Rayburn was a lucky charm for the Steelers. He had 2 sacks & the Steelers got 2 touchdowns right after his sacks.
Bhahahaha
the 2004 season was just all afc conference dominance! the nfc conference that season were nothing but sitting ducks!

@@borla4491 yet still in the end. The 2004 season belonged to the afc conference, to the Patriots!
The eagles would have won multiple superbowls if McNabb ran.
McNabb refused to scramble because he wanted to known as a "pure passer".
Leave it to Collinsworth to make idiot comments. Used to love watching him play. Now, can't stand the guy.

Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.
