It’s Super Bowl week, and with it here at Steelers Gab we’ll take a look back at the top 10 Steeler plays in Super Bowl history. We’ll do two per day, with today being numbers 10 and 9:
10. SB XIII – Bleier gets hops against the Cowboys – The battle with the Cowboys went back and forth for most of the first half, and the Steelers finally got things under control right before halftime, as they put a drive together in a 14-14 game. From the 7-yard line, the games MVP Terry Bradshaw looked for running back Rocky Bleier, who made a ballet type catch in the end zone for a score that gave the team a 21-14 lead. The play remains one of the highlights in Bleier’s stellar career.
9. SB X – Swanns Sideline catch vs. Dallas – Lynn Swann took home the MVP award of Super Bowl X, and it started with an amazing catch on the sidelines for a 32-yard gain to the Cowboys 16-yard line. The wide out went up in the air and seemed to fly above defenders to make the catch, and even more so to make sure his feet were able to stay in bounds. Just an amazing all around play by one of the games all-time great pass catchers.
