The last item of the day before signing off from
Super Bowl Sunday is to take a closer look at some of the most notable statistics sent over by the
NFL Network research crew,
Super Bowl,
cheap nfl jerseys,
Steelers, with a few observations mixed in for good measure. The road less traveled: The
Packers joined the 2005
Steelers as the only No. 6 seeds to win a
Super Bowl. They’re the sixth Wild Card team to win a
Super Bowl, and the third team to do so after winning three road playoff games. No doubt the three turnovers played the role of catalyst for the
Steelers’ loss,
New England Patriots, leading directly to 21 points for the
Packers. This stat shows the importance of the turnover battle: teams with a positive turnover differential are 33-3 all-time in the
Super Bowl. The
Packers were +3 against the Steelers and +6 during the 2010 playoffs. Credit the
Steelers for nearly winning a
Super Bowl despite those three turnovers. By gaining momentum with a touchdown late in the first half and striking again early during the third quarter, they made a game of it. The
Packers failed to convert a third-down attempt (0-for-4) in the third quarter and had one first down before regaining the momentum late. Mike McCarthyimproved to 5-2 in the playoffs and joins Vince Lombardi and Mike Holmgrenas coaches to win
Super Bowl with the
Packers. Link:
