Well, the Pittsburgh Steelers were favored to win the biggest football game of the year, but I am sure they weren't expecting to win it by only four points 27-24 in the final seconds of the game.


The Steelers defense did come to play on Super Bowl Sunday, especially the Defensive Player of the Year James Harrison, but the Cardinals had a never say die attitude that almost pull off the unlikely upset. James Harrison was the game changer for the Steelers early on with his endzone interception return for touchdown, but the momentum didn't go their way for long as Kurt Warner connected with Larry Fitzgerald for a touchdown of their own.


The biggest play of the game that will go down in the history books was when Big Ben Roethlisberger charged his Steelers down the field with the best two minute drill in the team's history and connected with Santonio Holmes in the right corner of the endzone for one of the prettiest catches I have ever seen which resulted in the game winning touchdown.


Kurt Warner was magnificient in this game and arguably out played Big Ben, but the game winning touchdown to Santonio Holmes will be the only thing people will remember when it is all said and done.


Coming into this game I would have said there were better Super Bowl match ups that could have happened like the Philadelphia Eagles against the Steelers or the New York Giants taking on Mike Tomlin's crew, but after watching the game there was no better match up than these two teams going head to head.
