| Steelers vs. the
Bengals was the AFC wildcard round at Cincinnati. Jerome Bettis and
CO. proved that they deserve to be in the playoffs. the Steelers
beat the Bengals 31-17, but the game was over for the Bengals the
second play of the game when Kimo made a direct hit to Palmer's left
knee. Ben Roethisberger passed for 208 yards, had zero
interceptions, and three touchdowns. Jerome Bettis had one
touchdown, along with Hines Ward.

| Pittsburgh went to
the next playoff game against the Indianapolis Colts as underdogs. The
Steelers prove everyone wrong by beating the Colts 21-18. Ben
passed for 107 yards and made the game saving tackle for Pittsburgh.
This game came down to the final seconds when the Colts were in
field goal range and they missed the kick and the Steelers won as
underdogs.

| Pittsburgh Steelers take the
fifth. It took teamwork, toughness, and trickery for the Steelers to
beat the Seattle Seahawks 21-10. Jerome Bettis in his home town only
had forty three yards with fourteen carries, but our future Hall of
Fame Steeler got his ring.

|
| Ben, Antwann and Hines sealed
the win for the Steelers when Randle El threw a forty three yard
pass to the Most Valuable Player Hines Ward for a touchdown. Ben not
only helped out with the trickery play but he threw for 123 yards
and had a touchdown.

|
| At the end of the 2004 season Ben promised Jerome that he would take him home to Super bowl XL to what could be the last game of his career. Not only did Ben take him home but they won. After getting to hold the Vince Lombardy Trophy Jerome announced that the Bus stops here. that is how our storybook trip ended. |
