Ind (-1) vs NYJ (disrespecting Peyton Manning)
Exactly! I keep hearing about this disrespectful thing on the Steelers. You know the Bengals in 2005 wildcard game got disrespected when they were getting +3 as a homedog vs the #6 seed Steelers & the Steelers covered , also the #6 Steelers in the super bowl were favored by 4.5 over the #1 seeded Seahawks, who won?
The disrepecting thing is a trap & everyone backing the Steelers are falling into the oddsmakers web.

In 2005, the Steelers had less wins than the Seahawks.
The Steelers were the #6 seed while the Seahawks were #1 seed
Steelers were -4.5 & they covered
It seems people are over analyzing this game & its not that difficult.
The oddsmakers arent stupid & they know why they made the Packers the favorite.
Seeds mean nothing. Packers are the favorite because most have been on the post season bandwagon. Line would be same regardless of seeds.

The books have to even out the action some how

in 2002 the Raiders were a 4 point favorite over the best defense in the league that year The Buccaneers
TB had more wins than Oakland
Oakland had the top ranked Offense
TB Defense and offense ripped apart raiders 48-21 o/u was 44

Funny ... because against Baltimore & the Jets the Steelers were supposed to be the sucker play as well. I see many more GB is a gift jump on quick threads. Rodgers will shred the Steelers. Pouncey is out. Steelers can't score. ect

With all due respect, this is a pointless post..The Steelers were up 3 scores going into halftime. NYJ had to come out throwing and Pittsburgh switched up to kill clock and play soft coverage. They sat on the lead which is what a good team does. If the game was closer, NYJ wouldn't have been able to move the ball that easy, trust me. They had 50 total yards in the first half and the Steelers and the outcome were never threatened by the JETS period!
You say if this game turns into a track meet the only D that will be able to slow down the other teams Offense is Green Bay's?? Where do you get that reasoning from?? So Green Bay will go up and down the field on the best D in the league, but somehow PItt will get stopped?? And if you think Pitt can't score, they averaged 27ppg in their last 6 and BEAT GB last year in a shootout. Your reasoning is weak pal

During halftime when Pitt was up big on the Jets Pinnacle released a line of pick em for the Superbowl.
Alot of action went on the Packers and the line was than bumped to -2.5.
If this game was outside in the cold I like Pitts chances, playing in Dallas I like GB.
Whoever thinks Green Bay doesn't have a good D is insane they will have Defensive player of the year 2 years in a row with Mathews most likely winning this year and Woodson winning it in 09.
Also GB d shut out the Jets in NY.

More false garbage...Pitt had the mostg sacks in the league, GB did not lead the league in any defensive category.. PITT also has the best stat 14.5ppg they average in giving up.
Like SteelCash says, the public is enamored with Rogers and passing the football for a bunch of yards..The media has a big play in this as well...Everyone knows Defense wins championships and the best won will win come Super Sunday... I'll back the better D in Pitt
fucking homers are funny u forget that green bay only gave up 15 ppg and they never trailed by more than 7 in any game and never lost by more than 4.... they got a D too and none of the pitt backers seem to have a response to this fact...
also pitts stats may b inflated they played some pretty weak Os this year too browns twice bengals twice and even the ravens they dont do much scoring themselves.... hell ryan fitzpatrick threw for over 250 on this D...

If pouncey plays he will not be 100% and he will get tested early by matthew and raji... they may b better off with lugersky starting at 100%.... also polamalu is not 100% either and u can tell by the way hes playing hes not flying around to the ball as usual i think he will fair better with the time off though

id say rodgers is the better qb hands down no arguement there... but big ben is one of the best closers in the league hard to go against him in a one drive must win situation hopefully it doesnt come down to that
