"Bus" made sure to look down at Urlacher as if to say, "that's right I just did that to you" I love it!!

In real-time, I was like, "did he just run over Urlacher?" Sittin on the edge of my seat waiting for the replay.

This was also Bettis' last 100+ yard game

Such a huge win. We wouldn’t lose again as this was win one of 8 straight.

Urlacher was the Defensive Player of the Year that season. He was absolutely dominate. Bettis was in his final season and way past his prime. That made the moment he ran over Urlacher that much more amazing.

That Jerome Bettis run over Urlacher epitomized Jerome’s running style.

Remember this game well. Watching it with my pops we knew for us it was the start of the playoffs that day against the bears. They never looked back either until the bus stopped in detroit!! What a damn good year for Steeler nation!!

Totally remember this run to the SB! #steelers 🏈💪

I still remember this game. Bettis definitely had his snow tires on that day!

That is my favorite play of Jerome Bettis when he ran over the Defensive player of the year.

The Steelers were playing so hard in this game. You can see it. That Hines touchdown . . .

To me, this game is perfect Pittsburgh Steeler football. Cold, snowing, sloppy field. A great big back who runs over anything in his path and a smash mouth defense. It's beautiful.

I’ll never forget Bus running right over Urlacher like that. Bus wasn’t even at full steam because of the other tackler he ran over first

That Hines touchdown!

6:47 Lebeau's patented Zone Blitz scheme at work. Watch #98 Hampton drop into underneath coverage as the rush comes from the blindside confusing and overwhelming the offensive line.

I was at this game. I flew in from Champaign, Illinois. I got all kinds of grief from the Bears' fans. When I came back they all had their heads down and kept quiet. I said the "Monsters of the Midway" looked more like the "Morons of the Midway!". 😂 It made it even sweeter that we went on to win the Super Bowl that year. 😁👍

I was at that game! The crowd exploded when Bussie pancaked Urlacher.

When The Bus had on his snow tires ❄🥶

What a rugged run offense! Hines Ward's run after the catch for a touchdown was "true grit"!

My son and I attended this very game! It is one of our best memories…..we call or text every time we see it again Great season and this is where the run began

How good was that first TD catch and run by Hines Ward!? He deserves to be a HOFer more than ANYBODY. Nobody played the game the way it should be played like Hines. Not to mention he was an absolute beast who’s impact was more than what showed up on the stat sheet.

The front line made holes even I could get through ... What a great team effort. Great vid Yinz.

Hines Ward got me up shouting on his Touchdown!

The snow, the energy, some big names. Great game

Dude I remember that game like it was yesterday. My best friend and I were watching it together and when Jerome ran him over I thought I was seeing things. I never would have thought that Urlacher would get ran over that bad. That game gave us the juice we needed to win it all that year.

I loved Tunch's call when Jerome flattened Urlacher. LOL

Love the Steelers. Great game. Pro-Bowlers all over the field.

This is where Cowher wiped the schedule clean and this was the only game on the schedule. That's what got the team's mind set on the "One game season" mentality.

Such a great game to show you hiw the Bus played

The start of the 8 game streak that brought us one for the thumb. 9:28

Bettis dirty jersey at the end of the game is beautiful, that is football imo.

The S.O. and I had tickets to this game, but unfortunately woke up with the flu or something that morning and gave our tickets to some friends at the last minute. We forced ourselves onto the couch underneath about 5 blankets. I cannot speak for her, but I didn't watch the game more so experienced it as a fever dream that I hallucinated in my head as I faded in and out of consciousness. Bettis, Bettis, Bettis was repeating in my head as I felt I was moving towards madness with a 103 temperature. The next day and on the mend I finally watched the game properly and I had imagined the game very differently and the real game was much better than what I had imagined and thankfully Bettis didn't look like a snowplow.

THE BUS

Keep these beauties coming. Shyte, I miss football. This football. They played the game with no bs.

People who believe the "Willie Parker was fast but went down easy and couldn't break any tackles" meme as serious, accurate analysis need to watch the first half of this game. Sure, he wasn't the Bus, but there's only one Jerome Bettis. You had to come correct with Parker, and if you didn't wrap up and drive or take his legs, he'd beat you. He bounced off guys who just tried to hit him high and knock him down. He'd run through arm tackles. Not a power back, but not a soft player either.

I watched a special few yrs bck that showed what Bettis went through with his knees bf and after a game...he gave it all to the game and went out like a champ.

Should show all the games after this one all the way to the Super Bowl.

#36 Jerome Bettis.🐐🖤💛

It was painfully freezing. No one wanted a part of Bettis that day

The game Bears fans can’t stomach. Also - The ‘78 Steelers would have beaten the “85 Bears asses.

Ben's jersey was quite clean there at the end.

God, I forgot how fucking fast Willie Parker was. Once he got an opening, you weren't catching him. That team was one of the best in history that year

Damn, I remember this game! This was the turning point of the whole season. What a run!

I liked the bus when he was with the Rams and loved him as a Steeler, big man with the ball!

I liked it when Bettis flattened Ray Lewis twice can we see those high lights as well.

The Bettis Parker duo worked well that year

I'll never forget this season Monday night against the Colts my mans says We're done I replied we're going to win the Super Bowl

What a fun game to watch.

I used to travel from outside of Philly to Pittsburgh to go to one Steelers game every season (up until a couple seasons ago). I feel like I’ve probably seen more losses than wins, or close to .500 at least, but the ones I went to were always epic, this game included. I didn’t realize how iconic that play would be but I remember how awesome it was to experience that game, especially with how the weather quickly transitioned into snow. I also happened to be at the snowy playoff game against the chargers when LT played for them, and the two games where the punts (one may have been a kickoff) stopped immediately when impacting the ground on very rainy/muddy games, one being against the Dolphins, and the other was against the Bengals. I can continue the tradition of expressing how the games just aren’t the same as they used to be, but is anything ever?🤪

I was at that game it was snowing and when Jerome scored it was amazing 🌨️

Man if they could put it all together like they did this year we would have hella good team

The greatest play in my lifetime.

I love how in every big play for the Steelers from this time period you look ahead of the ball carrier and just see Heath Miller blocking some dude into next week and taking the play from good to great. I miss Heath so much, if he wasn't the best downfield blocker in history then it's at least close.

I remember watching the game and even though Bettis made a great run over Urlacher, I thought the snowy conditions with both teams playing in plus it being Bettis final season made this game memorable for me. But there's a reason why they call Bettis the bus.

As a bears fan I remember this game like I just watched it.... Steelers beat our ass but again we didn't have a QB

Steelers ran all over the Bears, 54 had a tough game man lol #SteelCity #HereWeGo

I miss Bettis. He was Pittsburgh Steelers incarnate!

Just noticed that catch around 9 minutes only one foot hit the ground inbounds hahaha I remember this game I was so pumped when the bus rolled over urlacher 🔥🔥🔥

I think this was the "Puh-lah-muh-loo" game, too. I knew one of the guys in the band that did that song.

If I Remember Correctly, This Game And That Bettis Run In Particular Fueled A SuperBowl Run !

The Bus was rolling with snow tires

9:38 Not only did Jerome Bettis run over Urlacher, he ran over Briggs, many others.yes!!! Snow, mud. They were equalisers.

Me: All I saw was Parker balling. This title is misleading! Also Me at the 4th Quarter: 👁👄👁

Start of a super bowl run!

The afc was a dogfight in 2005. Every division had at least 2 winning teams, so the steelers were on the verge of losing their season

Good times ☺️

I miss having a running game like this

The offensive line was on point this game. They were playing on another level against a very good defense. I remember this game well. ETA- For some reason Urlacher really had a poor game. He failed to close the distance on so many crucial plays, it seemed like he was shell shocked. That's not typical of him. He's a heat seeking missile at any other game. Dunno what was going on with him on this day.

I was in attendance!

I saw an interview a while back where Ray Lewis compared hitting Bettis to hitting a tree. That, is saying something. I remember this game, awesome to see these clips again.

God I miss this team.

Stop The Run & Run The Ball 2021 HereWeGo

STAIRWAY TO 7 BABY... LETS BRING IT HOME...!! P. S. yes I'm watching this during covid 19....

Wish we had that O line today

Amazing what a running game can do with a fullback

Didn't the Bears stop us on a 3rd & 3? We had a holding penalty and the bears opted to take the penalty instead of making us punt? Haynes picked up the 13 yards and the stillers went on 2 score? Or am i remembering incorrectly?

Show me what the BUS is about this game riggt here is what The Bus is all about

This is why hes a bus this title should of been the game the bus became the bus

Salute deetroit j bus also when playin forthe lions james stewart did 2 for over. 200 yards. Almost all thru bw

What year was this game played????

Nasty blocking by Heath all game long

Urlacher was paying all day

I can't tell. Is it snowing??......or is that Urlachers' TEETH?!!!

Everybody gets trucked…Everybody

WE NEED TO GET BACK TO THIS STEELER BALL!! WITH OUR D NO ONE WILL BEAT US!

"Wheels on the Bus go Round and Round"!

This game was so important, if we lost our playoffs were done. We had to win out to have a shot at the wildcard. (Spoiler Alert we win the Super Bowl)

Probably wont ever seen as dirty games like these with mostly all turf now

My Pathfinders teacher in high school was best friends with Brian Urlacher( I live in New Mexico where Urlacher is from) He is also a big bears fan, probably because of Brian I’m not sure though. Anyway I remember asking him about that play and what was going through his head and my teacher wouldn’t talk to me for a week🤣😂

Hope Brian Urlacher has tickets for the rides he took lol

The first player I unlocked on madden 2k19 was Brian urlacher

Knee to face mask to playoff run to SB

I’d like to have that Bettis game jersey

Man Dan Kreider should ran the ball more

You don’t stop The Bus, You get run over

Anyone remember the date?

Iconic. Steelers miss a Kreider type player.

Urlacher got knocked around that whole game, poor guy.

Kyrie is an unbelievable talent but lets be honest, Kyrie has not been the premier player on any team except for the 3 seasons in Boston. It was Lebron in Cleveland, KD in Brooklyn, and Luka in Dallas. AI was the unquestioned leader of his team and was always the number one threat to be stopped in Philly. No knock to Kyrie but I don't think it's close, AI was different!

9:25 is the play you're looking for
