As a Steelers fan I remember this game pretty vividly. Our O-Line was total garbage that game as well as for most of the season. Shows how great Ben is that we were able to win the Super Bowl that year with all the clutch plays he made that season despite that O-line. Definitely a legend!

Steelers are just lucky Philly got bounced in the NFC Championships by Larry Fitzgerald that year. Philly was a bad matchup for the Steelers that year.

The Eagles could’ve had 15 sacks in this game if it wasn’t for Big Ben evading some of those hits. Total domination.

This season began the streak of 5 straight eventual Super Bowl Champions being the first home opponent for the Eagles 2008 Steelers 2009 Saints 2010 Packers 2011 Giants 2012 Ravens Chargers got that honor in 2013, but lost in the Divisional round.

Eagles Defensive Coordinator Jim Johnson noticed that when teams showed pressure in the A-gap (over center), the Steelers pass protection call was to pinch everything in. So he showed A-gap pressure but blitzed corners and safeties off the edge instead. The Steelers didn't have an answer for the speed around the end with that pass protection call. Jim Johnson was one of the best DCs in the history of the NFL. It's a shame they don't put coordinators in the HOF, they really should.

Mike Tomlin has the GOAT hairline. Still looks just as crisp all these years later.

Troy polamalu was a great person, he deserves to be in the hall of fame. Unbelievable sportsmanship by him too. When he loses he never gives up.

McNabb’s last prime season... Good times

Crazy seeing Asante Samuel Sr. make an interception and now seeing his son play for a potential Super Bowl contending team.

Does anyone else appreciate Jason Avant? He has to be one of the better 3rd down receivers I've ever seen. He reminds me of Danny Amendola, with his penchant for acrobatic, clutch receptions. He played for the Eagles for several years before signing with Carolina in 2014, then later signed with the Chiefs during the season. So basically he played for Andy Reid for nearly his entire career. In his last game as a pro in the 2015 playoffs against NE, I recall he made a couple insane contested catches on 3rd down. Underrated career.

I vividly remember being so distraught after this game. The Steelers offense looked so awful that I thought they'd win 6-7 games. A legendary defense and top 10 all time QB helped them win their last Super Bowl. Such a satisfying season and that defense needs more respect. Literally #1 in damn near every major statistic in an offensive minded league with a below average offense.
