I don't recall EVER playing the Steelers,Bengals or Broncos either at Gillette OR Shaeffer in a playoff game.
Pats vs Steelers 1/5/97 in Fog Bowl game.
Wait! So I imagined being there and paying a fortune to scalpers for that game?
Well, I'm sure you did have to IMAGINE the game since I'm sure it was difficult to actually see the game through the fog.
And if it's the Broncos I'd prefer we don't talk about the other two times we've met them in the playoffs. :bricks:
1996 Steelers Divisional Playoff 28-3 Win by the Patriots.
Never had Bengals or Broncos at home.

Totally forgot about that game

The Bus had completely flat tires against the Pats and we were all psyched because the lowly Jags knocked off mighty Denver for us and had to come to Foxboro the following week, where we also whooped them. Things didn't go so well in the SB vs. Greenbay, though. That was a great season, though until it ended with the Parcells debacle.
Elway was in 86..........Plumber in 05

like the others have said the pats and steelers played each other almost every year in the 90's im sure at lest one was played in new england im not sure about denver and cincy
As mentioned, the "Fog game" was in '97 ('96 season), where NE beat PIT 28-3 here in Foxborough.
More importantly, remember that dispite whoever wins in the regular season, no team has beat the other in the same yr during the postseason.
In other words, neither PIT nor NE has "swept" the other 2-0 by winning in the postseason after a reg. season victory.
That may bode well for us this yr, if you believe that sort of thing..
