- The Steelers defense was playing like they were startled by all of the bright lights of the cameras. They had a hard time stopping the Packers on any big down.
- Big Ben (the Steelers quarterback) is known for taking his time in the pocket (he has quite the pump fake). Normally this isn't a problem, but when your offensive line can't hold the defense you might think Big Ben would try to get out of the pocket and get rid of the ball a little faster. That didn't happen - I guess I was wrong.
- Packers suffered three injuries during the game that took out some of their starting players, but that was okay with them as that's how they have been winning all season long. With injuries ensuing the Packers managed to work with the talent they had to fill the gaps.
- Aaron Rodgers won a new car... and will probably vacation in Disney World as he is named MVP of the game.
What's most amazing about the Green Bay Packers Super Bowl win is that they were a six seed team. They had to beat Chicago to get into the playoffs, beat the Eagles and Falcons on the road, and then beat Chicago AGAIN. The Packers definitely took the hard road. In the end the trophy goes to the best team, and with the way Green Bay crawled back and took their fate into their own hands it's hard to argue with that.
No one mentioned Brett Favre or the potential lockout for next year, Christina Aguilera made up her own lyrics to our national anthem, the cameras caught Cameron Diaz hand feeding A-Rod popcorn, and Mike McCarthy (the Packers head coach) took a bath in orange Gatorade. It might sound like a circus, but it's America's game and we wouldn't have it any other way.
