In the past Belicheck and Brady seemed to have the Steelers number.   There were always those baffling moments in every game when one of their receivers was inexplicably wide open. If that happens again, it could be 31-17--or worse.

But the Steelers have never really had this balance on offense before, and a solid offensive line. I give the Steelers a 40% chance to win, especially if Bell can run for 100+, the defense can get just a little pressure on Brady and the OL can keep it off Ben.

Also, despite all the talk about the Patriots #1 scoring defense etc., I don't think their D is as tough as the Chiefs, especially the cornerbacks. Tomlin, Rothlisberger, Harrison--their hatred of the Pats will focus the rookies as well as themselves.

I go with 27-24 Steelers. They belong in the Superbowl again.

It will be a good game for sure. My fear is you guys will pull one out of your ass. However, if I see that developing, my knees will be on the ground in front of my football alter praying God does a Sodom & Gomorra on the cities of Pittsburgh and Foxboro. My hate for Pittsburgh may be the only thing that keeps me from entering the kingdom of heaven when I die. Yeah, it's that bad.

However, I will give you one thing. It must be nice to have withdrawals from not winning a SB in awhile. The NFL has already had their pre-game meeting with the refs and have determined who will win this game. I guarantee you the decision was made by fan-cash. But hey, it's a business I guess.
