Who Is Your Money On?

Time to talk Superbowl! Long story short.....who do you like? Steelers or the Seahawks? I gotta go with the Steelers....they have experience, a great Q-B, recieving is great, defense is great......I just don't see the Seahawks beating the Steelers.....they are gonna have to get mighty lucky to do so....in other words.....Pittsburg is gonna have to beat themselves by turning the ball over too many times a la Patriots to lose this game! Its gonna be a blowout from what I can see!

Enjoy VF!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

The Steelers should win this easily...I don't see a blowout though. Thats not the Steelers game....they play more of a Grind it out style of football. get an early lead then let Defense protect it.

Seattle's O'line will need an extroardinary game to pull it off. They need to keep pressure off of Hasselback....or he's done, and the Steelers front 7 are just too good

I'm thinking Steelers by 7....maybe 20-13

Seattle's D is no slouch either so I don't think the Steelers are going to just score at will.

Enjoy VF![/QUOTE]

I will try, love to see the team get this far but when there is only 1 game left it is hard to relax I don' care what 2 teams are playing 1 of them shows up to win and the other shows up to play, we'll see which team wants it!

Predictions part of me wants to think this game is over by the half like 2 out of the 3 playoff games so far, I usually don't make predictions unless forced but I will say Steel 34- Hawks 20

I think the Steeler will pull this one off, they deserve it, Ben is playing well and should give them the edge, and I doubt Seattle can stop "The Bus" on the goal line? I think it'll be a close, low scoring game with 2 great running teams and defences. I say Steelers win 24-17.

Don....are your eyes within seeing distance of your colon? Get your head out of that dark hole......I can't believe you are picking the Seahawks? I know you hate the Steelers but do you really think the Steelers are going to lose?

There's 2 teams...the one you WANT to win and the one you BET ON to win.....you should never get the 2 confused

Don't really care either way, (hell I even sold my two club seats for the game) but I think Seattle has the edge, it begins with the coach and how he'll have his team just right for this game whereas Pitt may have had to peak too early just to reach the Bowl. Please don't take this as slamming the Steelers, they beat the best when they were scheduled to play, especially when they destroyed the Broncos. Alexander has 20 plus carries while the Bus is still a spot player. Impact, but a spot player. Just my .02

Who cares about Bettis when you have W Parker, V Haynes, and Duce Staley which I am not sure will be active or not.
