Steelers Capture Super Bowl XL

Pittsburgh proved it was worthy of its No. 1 ranking in Dunkel as the Steelers captured Super Bowl XL with a 21-10 win over Seattle.  The game wasn't pretty and there were a few controversial calls, but the Steelers hit on two big plays -- Willie Parker's 75-yard TD run and Antwaan Randle El's 43-yard TD pass to MVP Hines Ward -- and held the Seahawk offense in check.  The win capped a strong finish for the Steelers, who were just 7-5 at one point in the season before finishing with four straight regular season wins and a sweep in the playoffs (all on the road).   Here are the final rankings for the 2005 season.
