Is this the best you can do?

A QB with the worst quarterback rating in superbowl history,a team that had fewer total yards on the field.

The refs calling back TD after TD and even stevie wonder couldve saw the game was fixed.Yeah you sure told us so.........

I shouldve known the bettis story all but guranteed the stealers a win."STEALERS"

I thought superbowls were to be played on a nutral site,they were giving away terrible towels to any fan who wanted one at the door.And were selling stealer XL cahpion merchandise before the game even kicked off.

But no seahawk towels no seahawk XL championship merchandise......this game was fixed and everyone saw it.

If more than 2,000 people showed up to support the Seahawks, people might have made towels for the Seahawks. However, no one really cares about the Seahawks so why would they waste money making blue tissues when no one would want them???

I was listening to NPR the other day and they had a writer on from Seattle... cracking up about how the men where going to cry when the Seahawks lost... I thought he was joking... I thought wrong.

Not smack, just just something from my experience.

If "they" were giving away terrible towels, it could have easily been some other group doing it. When we went to Houston, the Boston Globe was giving Patriots stuff to everyone on the street - even offered stuff to us. We declined. I wished that a business in Charlotte would have stepped up and done something similar - maybe next time.

Detroit was a neutral site - but it just so happened that it was a 5 hour drive away for Pittsburgh natives. That's just bad luck. When it's in Arizona, Seattle will have the advantage over the East Coast teams, so if Seattle makes it, their fans should take advantage of it.

You possibly could be right,the towels were handed out inside the stadium to any fan that wanted them.

It could have been a private group,but watching the thousands of towels being swung around on TV just made me sick to my stomach when my buddy called my cell from the game and told me.

Pittsburgh outrushed your team. That's a more telling stat. And Roethlisberger had 5 3rd down completions for first downs to keep drives alive. He also ran one on 3rd down for a first as well. All in all the team was 8-15 on 3rd down conversions while Seattle finished 5-17. They got some yards, but couldn't sustain enough drives to get to the endzone often enough.

LMMFAO at "giving away terrible towels to any fan who wanted one"!!!!!!!!!

Buddy I was there, and I can assure you nobody was giving terrible towels away. They had them for sale, but they were $10. This is the superbowl man, you think Steelers fans just jumped on the bandwagon? Dude, 3 Rivers and now Heinz Field have had a sellout streak longer than the Seahawks have been in fuging existance. Terrible towels were hard to come by in Pittsburgh the week before the game. No Steelers fan showing up would hardly be without one. All those terrible towels you saw? Ninety nine percent of them were brought in by the fans, including my own.

The problem was that Steeler nation is 20 times bigger than Seahawks nation, and they carried that ratio into Ford Field. Pittsburgh fans bought the tickets, stayed at the hotels, and showed up to support their team. The Seahawks had home field all through the playoffs, but their fan base just wasn't big enough to help them much in the Superbowl.

Why didn't the Seahawks just come up with their own "towel" knockoff?

They coulda been the:

Caffeinated Kerchiefs

Boeings Bandanas

Microsoft Manes

Drizzling Dusters

Rain Rags

Oh, the possibilities are endles!!!! lol

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By jb2288 · Posted

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
