Nearly 30 years later, the pain of coming up short to the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl XXX still stings members of the 1995 Pittsburgh Steelers’ team that came up short in the quest for the Steelers’ fifth Super Bowl in franchise history.
That night at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Arizona, the Steelers’ defense was certainly good enough to win it all, but Steelers’ quarterback Neil O’Donnell and the rest of the Steelers’ offense certainly wasn’t in the 27-17 defeat to the Cowboys, which saw the Steelers get within three points in the fourth quarter at 20-17.
