#18. To da’ House No.1. James Harrison had the “runs.”

Super Bowl XLII, Arizona Cardinals driving for the go-ahead score from the three-yard line, whoa nelly, that ain’t happening. Deebo steps in front of Kirk Warner’s pass and now its, “run Forest run” as he lumbered down the sideline with a convoy, scoring the longest interception in Super Bowl history. Oxygen, please.

#17. To da’ House No.2. Fast Willie Parker had to break an egg in his shoe and…Beat It, Beat it, No one wants to be defeated.

Super Bowl XL, Seattle Seahawks in a tight contest in the third quarter then BOOM, SWOOSH and like Dash from the Incredibles, off Fast Willie went on a Super Bowl record 75yd touchdown capped off with a flip into the end zone.

#16. Steelers Super Bowl, No.2. America’s Team vs. The People’s Champion.

In the first of three Super Bowls against the Dallas Cowboys, and the Steelers first back to back championships; the Steelers came out on top 21-17 in SB X in1976. Lynn Swan introduced himself to a national audience with a series of acrobatic catches that netted him the MVP, first Wide Receiver to ever earn that honor. Seven sacks by the Steel Curtain. The legend continued.

#15. Steelers Super Bowl, No. 3. The People’s Champion vs. America’s Team.

In a rematch against the Dallas Cowboys, seeking to become the first franchise to win three Super Bowls, the Pittsburgh Steelers lead by Terry Bradshaw’s aerial circus won SB XIII in 1979 35-31. MVP, Bradshaw.
