Jason Witten not even turning to look for the ball on 4th down is hilarious lol

I’m absolutely LOVING these steelers throwback vids thanks so much for uploading them. I miss this Steelers team so much. Their games were classics too

[jakeroksandich]

Ben doesn’t get enough credit for what he did behind that awful 2008 line

[teddyjam]

I remember watching this game and it doesn't seem like it was 12 years ago. Wow!

[universalguide]

The physicality of this game is insane. Not like today's games where there's a flag every big hit or receivers wanting a flag more than they want to actually catch the ball.

Mike Tomlin after this game:

"What a beautiful football game. And I mean that."

[ctcowboys]

I went to the game in 2016 at Pittsburgh. COWBOYS won a GREAT game. Steelers fans are class acts too. Lots of cool people in that city.

[mredwards]

Never realized how good of a game this was....Hard hitting, big plays etc wow

This started the collapse of the 2008 cowboys

[FastPaull]

The energy for this game was crazy. The Steelers were amped from the start. I've never seen guys get so excited for 1st quarter plays. Same for the crowd, never heard it so loud in the 1st quarter.

Dallas closed out the 2008 season by playing the Steelers, Giants, Ravens, and Eagles, who had the 5th, 3rd, 1st, and 4th best point differentials in the league. The Steelers, Ravens, and Eagles all made it to the conference championship game. The Giants were the top seed in the NFC and lost to the Eagles in the divisional round. As much as I like to laugh at Dallas for collapsing that year they had an absolutely brutal final quarter of the season. They did lose 3 of the 4 games and got obliterated 44-6 by the Eagles in week 17 with a playoff birth at stake.

The Steelers were 9-3 entered this game finished 12-4 in the 2008 season won the 6th and most recent Super Bowl title against the Cardinals🔥Troy Polamulu, James Harrison, Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes and Big Ben on that team

[T-si]

Man at the time I really thought this could've been the eventual matchup in super bowl 43. Then Dallas fell apart in December.

I remember this, my buddy legit started crying when romo threw that pick 6 and we all knew the game was over by then lmaoo

[RatedChess]

Ahh back then (and familiar things) 2008: A team from the AFC North division (Steelers) won the Super Bowl
2012: Another team from the AFC North (Ravens) won it. Steelers in the division
Both Cowboys Steelers games today
The games were in 2008 and 2012
Both teams had winning records at the time of those matchups


































The NFC East was competitive

[dirty.dan]

Everyone talks about the Cowboys being destroyed 44-6 in the regular season finale against Philly but no one talks about how this game they completely screwed them heading down the road

[Speedy_Cy]

A crowd? No mask? Less then 6 feet? That seem like a far souvenir.

[derricktalbert]

Maan, i would love to hear Romo's breakdown at the time of this game

[espy]

I remember this game like yesterday. Buck and Aikman were hardcore homers for the Cowboys... and then it happened 👀
