bflo83 Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 While I have to begrudgingly give the Patriots credit - they are just a solid team that makes few errors and capitalizes when the opponent screws up - what is the deal with Bill Cowher and Conference Championship games? Home field for the playoffs doesn't seem to work for the Steelers. To lose four out of five conference championship games at home is terrible. Maybe I'm spoiled with the Bills record at home in the playoffs (9-1 at the Ralph) but if I was a Steelers fan I would be disgusted by this team's performance. It is unacceptable to have this lack of success at home. 1995: Lost to San Diego 17-13 1996: Win over Indianapolis 20-16 1998: Lost to Denver 24-21 2002: Lost to New England 24-17 2005: Lost to New England 41-27 There's a lot of crying in those terrible towels tonight.

jarthur31 Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I brought this up on NFL-Fans.com and made some enemies there with that little nugget months ago. The Stillers fans there are the loudest and the dumbest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflo83 Posted January 24, 2005 Author Share Posted January 24, 2005 24-3 wasn't it? 216057[/snapback] Yes it was. In addition, the Steelers have lost a Wild Card game to KC at home and a Division playoff game to the Titans at home under Cowher's watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kultarr Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 That win was pretty iffy as I recall. Did the ball really hit the ground or was it on his chest the entire time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
