‘This Is Our Night:’ Kevin Colbert Was Confident Steelers Would Win Super Bowl XL After Ike Taylor Interception

Former Pittsburgh Steelers CB Ike Taylor was a great player for the team, but he wasn’t known for having particularly good hands. But on the biggest stage, in Super Bowl XL with the Seattle Seahawks driving and down four with just over ten minutes to go, Taylor made one of the biggest plays of his career, intercepting Matt Hasselbeck. After Taylor’s interception, the Steelers put together a touchdown drive to take a 21-10 lead with 8:56 to play, and the Steelers were able to secure their fifth Lombardi Trophy.

Appearing on the All Things Covered podcast with Bryant McFadden and Patrick Peterson, former Steelers GM Kevin Colbert said that Taylor’s interception made him think that it was the Steelers night.
