My Favorite football team, the Pittsburgh Steelers (#1 rated defense), will face off against the Arizona Cardinals vicious offense in superbowl XLIII (43 for you slow folk).
After 2 close games each team was able to clinch a spot in the superbowl. The Eagles gave the Cardinals a good run after the Cardinals blew a 14 point lead. Larry Fitzgerald seemed to be an unstoppable force as he broke Jerry Rice's record for 420 rec. yd's in a post season and caught 3 touchdowns for a Cardinals win.
The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Baltimore Ravens for the 3rd time this season in a close game as Troy Polamalu caught an interception off Joe Flacco and returned it for a touchdown to put the Steelers ahead with a safe lead. The Steelers lost their main receiver, Hines Ward, early in the game to a knee injury. And The Ravens lost their running back Willis McGahee to a serious neck injury with under 5 min left in the game.
The Cardinals have reached their 1st superbowl in 61 years. The Steelers are headed back to their 7th Superbowl, 5 of 6 which they have won.
