The penalties were bad and many of the calls botched -- including the last-second fumble that looked more like an incomplete pass -- but if it weren't for Kurt Warner throwing that interception that was returned for a touchdown in the first half, the Arizona Cardinals probably would have won. They should have either tried to run it in or settled for the field goal. I know the same play worked twice in the game, once before the interception and once after, but gimme a break. Warner had his eyes locked on Boldin while playing the number-one ranked defense in the NFL. He was begging for a Pittsburgh Steelers pick and he got one.

Also, if the Cardinals were better at football than the Steelers, they would have won. And if the Steelers didn't have a reputation they were proud of defending, they might have lost.
