NFL Super Bowl XIV: Steelers 31 Rams 19
Terry Bradshaw completed 14 of 21 passes for 309 yards and set two passing records as the Steelers became the first team to win four Super Bowls. Despite three interceptions by the Rams, Bradshaw kept his poise and brought the Steelers from behind twice in the second half. Trailing 13-10 at halftime, Pittsburgh went ahead 17-13 when Bradshaw hit Lynn Swann with a 47-yard touchdown pass after 2:48 of the third quarter. On the Rams' next possession Vince Ferragamo, who completed 15 of 25 passes for 212 yards, responded with a 50-yard pass to Billy Waddy that moved Los Angeles from its 26 to the Steelers' 24. On the following play, Lawrence McCutcheon connected with Ron Smith on a halfback option pass that gave the Rams a 19-17 lead. On Pittsburgh's initial possession of the final period, Bradshaw lofted a 73-yard scoring pass to John Stallworth to put the Steelers in front to stay 24-19. Franco Harris scored on a 1-yard run later in the quarter to seal the verdict. A 45-yard pass from Bradshaw to Stallworth was the key play in the drive to Harris's score. Bradshaw, the game's most valuable player for the second straight year, set career Super Bowl records for most touchdown passes (9) and most passing yards (932). Larry Anderson gave the Steelers excellent field position throughout the game with five kickoff returns for a record 162 yards. SUPER BOWL XIV MVP: Terry Bradshaw, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers
While leading Pittsburgh to its second consecutive Super Bowl title, Terry Bradshaw became the first to earn back-to-back Most Valuable Player honors since Green Bay's Bart Starr in Super Bowls I and II. In a 31-19 victory over the Rams, Bradshaw threw for 309 yards and two touchdowns, completing 14-of-21 passes. His totals in this game made him the Super Bowl career leader in touchdown passes with nine and passing yards with 932. Bradshaw twice rallied Pittsburgh from behind, including a 13-10 deficit at the half. Early in the third quarter, Bradshaw hit Lynn Swann with a 47-yard touchdown pass to retake the lead. After Los Angeles scored a touchdown, Bradshaw teamed with John Stallworth on a 73-yard score to take back the lead for good. (It was the second consecutive Super Bowl in which the Bradshaw-Stallworth connection had combined for a long-bomb score as they teamed for a 75-yard touchdown in Super Bowl XIII.) On the drive toward a clinching touchdown run by Franco Harris, Bradshaw hit Stallworth with a key 45-yard completion. The quarterback's exploits helped the Steelers become the first team to win four Super Bowls.
