Bill Cowher Says Bryant McFadden’s End Zone Breakup Was An Integral Play Of 2005 Super Bowl Run

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2005 Super Bowl run was memorable for so many reasons. The team being the first six seed to win it all, each game coming on the road. Super Bowl XL being played in Detroit, Jerome Bettis’ hometown for the final game of his career. Bill Cowher finally hoisting the Lombardi and the organization winning one for the thumb, their first championship since the 70s dynasty.

If it wasn’t for Bryant McFadden, none of that might have happened. McFadden had a critical end zone breakup in the waning moments of the Divisional Game against the heavily-favored Indianapolis Colts.
