The 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers may have overcome long odds to win Super Bowl XL. But they were far from the Cinderella story (and inferior champions) people often make them out to be.
Believe it or not, the 2015 season will mark the 10-year anniversary of the Steelers magical 2005 championship run that included just barely getting into the playoffs and becoming the first sixth seed to win three road games to advance to the Super Bowl.
And, Pittsburgh made even more history by becoming the first team to not only win three road games to advance to the Super Bowl (the Patriots were the first to accomplish this feat in 1985 as a fifth seed), but actually complete the journey with a 21-10 victory over the Seahawks in Super Bowl XL.
