Shaun Alexander Questions Seahawks Trying To ‘Bait’ Steelers In Super Bowl

After establishing their dynasty in the 1970s, the Pittsburgh Steelers went on a long drought without a Super Bowl victory. For over two decades, the Steelers failed to add their fifth championship. That all changed with Super Bowl XL. The Steelers finally captured one for the thumb, defeating the Seattle Seahawks. Former Seahawks running back Shaun Alexander recently reminisced about that game, talking about his team’s game plan going into that matchup.

“I always want to kick myself because I carried the ball probably about 25-27 times a game,” Alexander said on The Lou Holtz Show.
