O'Donnell read the defense and threw the ball out. I can't answer that. O'Donnell said it's a team game and he will not assign blame. That's true, but a winner finds a way to complete that pass. Joe Paterno once said that the problem with the sports climate today is that a team never wins a game.
Somebody always has to be labeled the loser.
With all apologies to Paterno, O'Donnell has earned that label, and deservedly so. After being dominated in the first series, Greg Lloyd battled back to make an impact on the game. Kevin Greene, in perhaps his last game as a Steeler, left everything he had on the Sun Devil Stadium turf. Bill Cowher coached with the flair and abandon that has made him the best young coach in the game. Ernie Mills and Thigpen caught 18 balls between them.
