Knob slobberer. It has all been said earlier in the thread, but even if they win this year (which I find highly doubtful despite all the media) we still have more Super Bowl wins since 2004 than the Patsies do. Sorry, I don't buy that Brady is coming back 100% from his injury. Past experience shows that players come back rusty and gunshy from this type of injury. And I just don't buy that they fixed their defense enough after losing some key players the past couple of seasons. Let them slobber all over the Patsies and Bellicheat. We will sneak up on everyone because of the lack of respect by the media.

You know it kind of pisses me off that even though we won the sb last season and, still people doubt our guys. I'm with you Dino Ben and the boys are going to bring home #7 to the burgh. God I hate the cheaters!

Yes I am Bias as hell with this one. But without the Browns dynasty during this era, the Seelers wouldn't have those 4 Super Bowls ;).

That's nice and all, but the NFL was a COMPLETELY different game back then. In the mid-50's, there were only 12 teams in the entire league. To appear in the title game was to win the Eastern conference, which was about as difficult as winning your division in the 70's and 80's (There were 6 teams in the Eastern Conference in the 50's, 5 teams in the old AFC Central during the Steelers Super Bowl runs).

The Browns Championships back in the Eisenhower administration simply don't carry the same weight as those in the modern era.

This guy needs to get Belicheats short hairs out of his teeth.

The damn Patriots haven't even won a Super Bowl in 5 years, how can they be team of this decade, or any decade for that matter.

Frankly, the Steelers are 2 God-awful Neil O'Donnell passes away from being 7-0 in the Super Bowl.

Did you really have to bring up his name?


Just to put some perspective in to this debate, the guy is not talking about the best franchise of all time; he's talking about the best team of the decade. In other words, the first four Super Bowl wins don't count in this discussion, just like Green Bay's wins in the 60's or the Cowboys in the 90's don't. In other words, for the case of this discussion 6-1 is irrelevant. And please don't bring up woulda' coulda' shoulda' arguments because then every fan of every other team will be entitled to do the same thing.

Reality is that the Patriots have three Super Bowl wins this decade and the Steelers have two. This team needs to win another Lombardi this year - period. If not, then they have three to our two, regardless of the results of the last half of the decade.

I don't want to hear any excuses about 'they cheated' - sorry, it just sounds too much like what a Seahawk fan would say; just win another championship and let the results speak for themselves.
