Vector, Cowher is your problem..

He is a fraud. His act is so tired, with his clenched jaw and protruding chin, his arms crossed, spittle flying everywhere as he yells.... as he poses for the camera when he is angry. He is turning into the laughing stock of the league. Every winter he leads one of the "best Steeler teams in quite some time" into another disapponting playoff loss. Pittsburgh has actually had a few really good teams over Cowhers 13 years as coach and they have done nothing! Yea they won a playoff game here or there, but clearly cannot win a big game. Taking shots at the Pats only makes you look foolish. Three Superbowls in four years with the distinct possibility of three in a row and four out of five. Let me slim your list down a little to what actually counts....

• Jan. 23, 2005 - AFC Championship - New England 41, Pittsburgh 27
• Jan. 11, 2003 - Tennessee 34, Pittsburgh 31 (OT) - AFC Divisional
• Jan. 27, 2002 - New England 24, Pittsburgh 17 - AFC Championship
• Jan. 11, 1998 - Denver 24, Pittsburgh 21 - AFC Championship
• Jan. 5, 1997 - New England 28, Pittsburgh 3 - AFC Divisional
January 28, 1996 - Dallas 27, Pittsburgh 17 - Super Bowl
• Jan. 15, 1995 - San Diego 17, Pittsburgh 13 - AFC Championship
Jan. 8, 1994 - Kansas City 24, Pittsburgh 23 - AFC Wild Card
• Jan. 9, 1993 - Buffalo 24, Pittsburgh 3 - AFC Divisional

VF, All that chart shows is that after their last Superbowl win they had 13 years of playoff appearences Where they didn't bring the prize home....most of them under Cowher.

When I was a kid I loved the Steelers, Lynn Swann, Franco Harris, Mean Joe Green.....but those days are LONG Gone.

You never know but 25 years from now there will probably be some Houston Texan fan busting our Chops because we are still talking About the Pat's 3-peat While we're giving him crap about his team's Superbowl win

"If you're arguing with an idiot, make sure he isn't doing the same thing."

Show me once where I have taken a shot at the Pats, like I stated earlier I only post to keep your big heads in check, I think if you look you will see 99.9% the shots come from you guys and are aimed at the Steelers, hence the retaliation

Ok, I over reacted. It's just for some reason I can't stand Cowher and his act. He makes me sick I'd be so frustrated as a Steeler fan if I had to watch him week after week. I'll give Pittsburgh credit, they play tough smashmouth football and they have some talent. In my opinion, they just have a coach who doesn't know how to prepare for and win the big game. (That being said, John "Chucky" Gruden's angry face annoys the hell out of me too)

Now, I am going to try to get my enormous Patriot sized head out the door for a coffee.

If memory serves me right the Pats were a different team without Bruschi, Harrison, and Seymour in Denver last time, and they had that slouch Poteat in there, we are alot stronger defense this time around, and we have plenty up o0ur sleeves I'm sure............
