Congratulations Packers, you earned this plain and simple. Green Bay came into this game with superior professionalism and execution and buried the Steelers in a hole they couldn't dig out of. No excuses, no what ifs, no complaints about the refs. Congratulations.

The aspect of play that stood out to me was pointed out by Jimmy Johnson at halftime: Green Bay's excellent open field tackling. They did a helluva job at preventing YAC and breakaway runs at the right time. A lesser team would have allowed those crucial yards and potentially let Pittsburgh back into the game.

Somewhat ironically, a big negative factor in this game was the turf. Both teams had slips and injuries on plays that looked ordinary--I'm very surprised the footing was so bad.

Anyways, great game. Two great teams duking it out--Green Bay wanted it more and got it. Great game.

[edit] I'll get to the negative bit when I'm sober--lots of booze consumed tonight.

I agree.

Congratulations. A well played game, mistakes on both sides. Green Bay was able to pull it out.

Enjoy the win, and let's hope the CBA is agreed so we can be back this summer.

If the Steelers can't own the trophy, there is no one better to than the loyal fans of Green Bay.

You guys are a first class organization. You played a heck of a game and did not let up at all. No matter how hard we fought to get back in it, your Packers were just to much for us tonight. A very well deserved congratulations from all of Steeler Nation.

Heres to no hangover next season (if we have a next season) and a rematch in Indianapolis!

I was impressed by how the Pack overcame key injuries, especially the one to Woodson. The forced turnovers were huge. They D held up big when the game was on the line and the Steelers had over 2 min and a TD + the extra point would have won it. Congrats.

Grats to the Packer fans.

I am glad we made it close but the Packers deserved it.

Also, i have to say that as a group Packer fans are among the best.

I hope you packer fans are as happy as i am sad right now.

GL next year.

We had the game exactly where we wanted it. 2 minutes to go, Big Ben with the ball, and a drive and with a TD would all but secure the win.

Greenbay stopped the drive.

That is what championship football is about.
