What are Steelers fans' sentiments about Super Bowl LX?

Donnie 0:02
Super Bowl 60. Patriots Seahawks in a rematch. Donnie, I still can't believe they didn't give the ball to Marshawn Lynch. Can you? But it was a hell of a play on the play before that by Dante Hightower to stop him because it looked like he was going to score. And do you remember the catch by Jermaine curse on that drive? Yeah. I was just talking with somebody today, how plays like that plays like the Steelers surprise on side and Rod Woodson coming back from his knee injury in that game are sort of lost to the dustbin of history because those teams didn't win.
Joe Starkey 0:40
Yeah, and I think that's up there with that. I watched the top 50 plays in Super Bowl history or something today. Now, the curse catch was on there, but so was the Malcolm Butler play, as you can imagine, very high on that list. Was it interference, Donnie? No, I never thought so.
Donnie 1:01
All right. Sometimes I still watch it and just wonder if it was.

How does the past influence current Super Bowl matchups?

Joe Starkey 1:05
I always thought it was pretty perfect timing. Yeah. But the... Just like the look that Marshawn Lynch gives Pete Carroll coming off the field. Because Lynch just has a grin on his face, like almost disbelief. Like, man, all of the big runs I've had for this guy, and he didn't give me the ball at the one-yard line. And he just kind of looks over to Pete Carroll, and Carroll has a horrified look on his face.
Donnie 1:32
One of the great gaffes in sports history, coaching gaffes. Just ridiculous. Let's get back to the lines, Donnie. It's a Donnie Football Friday, I might add. You can listen to this show every Wednesday to hear about Starkey's Card of the Week from the Baseball Card Castle in Cranberry. Contests run every Wednesday through Friday at noon at the 937thefan.com contesting page. We've been talking about what's stirring your passions, if anything, for a game between two teams that are largely anonymous. You know what I mean?

What memorable plays are often overlooked in Super Bowl history?

Donnie 2:04
To the general public. You have a no-name defense. You have the Seahawks beyond Darnold, Smith, and Jigbas. We know he's a great player, but none of these people are household names, really. As Donnie said, yet, maybe they become one in the Super Bowl. And if you are passionate about the game, is part of that hating the Patriots and not wanting them to pass the Steelers? And part three, speaking of the Steelers, how far are they away from getting back to this game? Limits?
Joe Starkey 2:39
Here's our guy, Emmanuel and Carnegie.
Emmanuel 2:42
Hello, Emmanuel. What's up, man? Hey, thanks for taking my call. I think this game is kind of reminiscent to the Rams and the Bengals Super Bowl, where we were supposed to hate the Bengals because of their logo, but their characters changed. It wasn't Martez, Burfitt, and those guys. So the hatred wasn't really there.

Why are some Steelers fans rooting for the Patriots?

Emmanuel 3:00
And from the game perspective, I'm going to take this to another level in a different type of way. I'm actually rooting for New England. I want them to get that seventh ring. So we're not wrestling our laurels of, you know, sit Super Bowl champions, retire for the most champions. So we're not looking to be just competitive in a playoff game or maybe win in the first round. We're looking to win championships again because we don't have we're not wrestling our laurels for, you know, to sit Super Bowl wins. And then the last point is, I think we're far away. But also, I think the Super Bowl with the two matchups, there's two. you can take it from. You can take it from the New England way, tanking, stinking, going 3-14, and maybe even missing out on a quarterback like they did with Matt Jones.
Emmanuel 3:43
Or you can do it the Seattle way by looking for free agency and getting a quarterback like Sam Darnold. There's multiple ways to skin a cat, and I think you can do it either way.
Joe Starkey 3:54
I like that point that Emmanuel made there about I want New England to win. I want them to get number seven because then Art in the front office can't rest on the laurels. I like that one a lot.

How do the Steelers compare to the Patriots in terms of legacy?

Donnie 4:05
A kick in the behind to get things moving.
Joe Starkey 4:07
I like that point made a lot. Now, it's not going to get me to root for the Patriots once we get to 630 on Sunday evening, but I do like that way of looking at things because I think there is a little bit of that, Joe.
