I meant the defense was better coached. LeBeau is a very good defensive mind.

the steelers are going to crush the seahawks. its destiny for the "BUS". oh i can' wait for the media hype on that

but really i can't see the seahawks winning. i don't think its going to be a blowout, but the steelers got that toughness about them. polamalu is an absolute beast at SS. im won't be surprised if he wins MVP. big ben is playing very well, but all the pressure of the super bowl could get to him and he could hsve a major choke day too. hes still very young. thats the only way the seahawks win, if big ben has a bad day. other than that, its pitts game to win.

pitt-31
seagulls-26
I disagree. The hawks have the better offensive line, rb, and qb. Pitts d is better but the hawks d is not too bad either. I see this game as going either way...who ever gets the TO wins the game. Can Big Ben put three strong performances together? If he doesnt the hawks will win!

so u disagree, then u agree. i get it. fargin taterskins fan

You may find this hard to believe, but the Seachickens beating the taterskins doesn't make them a top-flight team.

Pittsburgh just beat the 3 top seeds in the AFC on the road in 3 straight weeks. They're good, and if things go the right way, they could absolutely stomp the hell out of Seattle.

Beat...they may have won but didnt beat anything. With Palmer the Bengals beat them and that douche of a kicker Vandyjacker or whatever. They have gotten some pretty big breaks. Those seachickens beat the crap out of Carolina but I guess they arent a top notch team until they beat your team..oh wait they did 42-0. Sounds good to me.

You can argue that the Steelers beat Cinci because they lost Palmer, but that didn't stop Kitna from taking them into halftime with the lead. The Bengals were up 17-0 at one point I believe and that was without Palmer. The Steelers won because they were the better team.

When he was carted off it took the air out of everyone...Kitna did a good job but do you think they come back with Palmer at the helm??

Cinci has the luxury of having a very capable backup, possibly the "best" backup in the game. Although some may argue that the best backup in the game is starting for the taterskins. But I digress.......

The point is, the Bengals are one of the few teams in the league who could afford to lose their starter and feel extremely confident with their backup, even in the playoffs. I don't think it mattered if Palmer played the whole game or not. The Steelers were going to win that game.

Cowher said today that the Steelers (the designated home team) will break tradition and wear white in the Super Bowl...

i think im pretty sure i don't care. the only thing that will make me actually watch the game will be the long off season waiting ahead.

Seattle have always had the most zesty uniforms in the league. Go Steelers.

Holmgren gives Reid the credit for "finding" Hasselbeck

from about half way down....

Quote"(Philadelphia Eagles coach) Andy Reid, who was on my (Green Bay) staff at the time and coaching quarterbacks, it was his job prior to the draft to go out and look at the quarterbacks," Holmgren said, recalling his initial decision to draft Hasselbeck in 1998. "We had three or four on our list. Of course, Brett Favre was with us, so we weren't prepared to draft a quarterback in the first round or anything like that.

"When talking about Matt, Andy came back and was sold on him and sold me and our staff. We looked at film. And then when I got to meet him and he was around with us, he had the measurables you wanted to have in a quarterback. He threw the ball pretty well. He is quite bright. He was courageous. He moved pretty well for a tall man, a big guy, and then now it's just a matter of seeing how he handles the pressure, the decision making and things like that. He didn't get much play in Green Bay. ... (But) I really liked what I saw, so when it came time to bring in another quarterback here in Seattle, we had four or five guys on our list and Matt came out ahead."
