Baldinger: BB's style of defense wont win c'ships

[The Brandon Five]

On the Tyree catch, we didn't have pressure on Manning?

We failed to send the patented Vortex blitz that is often used to counter double facemasks.

Tell that to the Colts and Saints and Pats. We leaving anyone else out? That just leaves the Steelers.

The Steelers are the only run 'dominant' team to win the SB in the past 10 years. And the last time they won it was in a shootout vs Arizona where Roethlisberger had to win it with his arm on one of the most memorable gamewinning SB TD passes ever to Holmes in the endzone.

Even more fascinating is that in the 2008 season the Steelers had the 23rd rushing offense and the 17th passing offense.

I'll never understand why the three Cardinals standing around Holmes didn't risk a PI call and just outright mug him. I still think he did not get the second foot down, but...meh.

Great point.
