Mark my words, the team that wins todays Indy / Pitt game will win the SuperBowl. Obviously Indy is the favorite, but Pttsburgh is the one of the most physical teams Ive ever seen and if they get a couple hits on Manning and Harrison, their timing will be thrown off.
Last game, Pittsburgh slowed Manning down but Roethilisberger was rusty coming off his injury layoff and he made several mistekes (INTs) that gave Indy short fields. Hes playing Pro Bowl football right now. Also, Marvel Smith, Pitts left tackle was injured and Indy was all over Big Ben which caused some sacks and misthrows. Smith is back and I look for a whole different ballgame this time.
Im not delusional. Indy is the best team in the league, but Pittsburgh is a team built to beat teams like them. They run the ball to chew up the clock and keep Manning off the field, they play great defense, put pressure on QBs and make them make mistakes and lets not forget that Pitt is the 8th highest scoring team in the league.
Im going to go out on a limb and say that if Pittsburgh doesnt turn the ball over, they win the game. Im taking the 10 points.
