I hope you're right on the prediction, oli.

I know that in the Super Bowls against Dallas, Steeler kicker Roy Gerela, was the only rostered Steeler to have played for another NFL team (Houston Oilers).

There will never be more talent on a Super Bowl field than there was in the 1970s when the Steelers and Cowboys met. The number of HAll of Famers and near HOFers is staggering.

Also, it's highly unlikely any team will ever have a draft like the Steelers in 1974 when they selected Lynn Swann, Jack Lambert, John Stallworth and Mike Webster while picking 21st overall and lacking a third round pick. And they added Donnie Shell as an undrafted free agent that year.
