<u>Bad</u> N.Y. Jets v. Pittsburgh - Well the Steelers got lucky on their win against the Jets, well it really was'nt the Jets they beat. They actually got lucky thanks to, former Saint, Doug "Choke" Brien. I personally saw this coming. A trench war between to great defenses and a pathetic performance by both offenses. By the way props to J. Bettis for doing his part. If it was'nt for the Choke then we would be seeing a different ball game this week. If Rothlisberger plans on playing against the Patriots like the way he did against the Jets, i believe he'll be looking for loss #1. All in all good performance by both teams. The Choke needs a new job. Minnesotta v. Philadelphia - I did'nt like this game one bit. The cocky Eagles against the cocky Moss'. Don't get me wrong i love T.O. and Randy Moss' attitude for the game. I just did'nt like the game they just played. For starters, the great play that gave Mitchell 2 touchdowns, let me say this again, Freddie Mitchell from the Philadelphia Eagles scored 2 touchdowns. Yeah i know i could'nt believe it either. Lucky son of a b!#ch. For two Randy Moss was injured and played like he did'nt give a rat's ass whether they won or not. For the most part it was a crappy game to watch, but i did enjoy watching B. Westbrook. Other than that. Pooh Pooh. <u>GOOD</u> St. Louis v. Atlanta - I loved watching Vick run all over this poor pathetic team that got in the playoffs with a little help from the *choke* *choke* Vikings. I also loved the team records they broke as well. I'm a little anxious to see Vick against a defense that's worth something. I believe if he can get passed the Eagles defense, then the Pats or Steelers might be in for a game. Props to W. Dunn and ..................the whold frickin staff for taking out the little Lambs. Indianapolis v. New England - Well the Patriots defense shut me up. I thought without a healthy secondary they would have a little trouble. That was the complete oppisite. The Patriots are good, i mean really really good. From watching this game i'm hoping they go to the SB AGAIN!!!! This team is serious, they know how to control a game and that's exactly what they did to shut down Mr. Manning. I'm really impressed with their performance and i hate to say i believe i might jump on the Patriots bandwagon for this Steelers game. AFC Championship 17 Patriots at Steelers 12 NFC Championship 30 Falcons at Eagles 24 (OT)
The Steelers won't win by passing, they'll win with great defense and controlling the clock. Ben will have very little to do with them winning the AFC Championship.... 27-10 Pittsburgh

They will have to pass, and if he passes like he did vs the 10-6 jets, resulting in what is the worst Steelers win of the season( but a win nonetheless) they will not even be competitive against the patriots. The jets stumbled backwards into the playoffs, lucked out vs the Chargers to play the steelers, played like crap on offense and should have beat the steelers. I think the steelers played one of thier best defensive games, did great on the ground, and still should have lost. They need something postive from Roth, they cant do it without him.
We'll see come Sunday when it's 20 degrees with 20 mph winds and snowing how much the passing game comes into play. I doubt either Brady or Roethlisberger have good numbers Sunday unless you consider 10-15 for 110 yards good numbers.
Lest ye forget that Brady was 18 for 27 for 144 and 1 - 9 yard TD vs the Colts. Dillon's 150 and TD, and the defense were enough to win that game. If the bread is good enough, man can survive.

Sorry but two picks in this game and the steelers are blown out.

You don't have to throw for over 200 yards everytime to win if you have an effective running game.
Well the point is well taken, but who has had an effective running game against Pittsburgh all season? Even in Baltimore's win in week 2, Jamal Lewis was held under 50 yards. The biggest output against the defense was Rudi Johnson in week 4 I believe as he broke 100 yards. So that's a big if SoCal.

Both games will be good. I hope your Falcons can pull off the upset, just not sure it's going to happen.

Although most think that the snow is bad for us I actually think it is good. Philly has to rely more on the passing game than the falcons. We probably won't get to see as many "superman" moments from Vick but I am confident in the abilities of Dunn and Duckett.
