Default Super Bowl XLIII predictions

Let's get it started early....

The NFL's #1 defense versus the high powered Cardinal offense, the experience of Kurt Warner in "big" games versus the toughness of the Steeler's QB Big Ben, the Cardinals are a new team since the playoffs with a complete turnaround, the Steelers keep you on the "edge of your seat" in all the games they play. Defense wins big games (remember Tampa Bay over the Raiders a few years back?) and frankly, I'm sick off everybody jumping on the Cardinals bandwagon! I haven't forgotten thier games this year versus the Jets, Vikings and Patriots....I guess everybody else has. The "Redbirds" face thier toughest team yet......

STEELERS 28
CARDINALS 17

Arizona 27
Pittsburgh 24

Very tough game to read as well as get excited about. I think the key will be injuries in the game.

I am hoping for


Kurt Warner 57
Pittsburgh 20



realistically the Cardinals defense will make it look like Pittsburgh has a great offense. Too much pressure on Kurt and the O line with zero chance of a running game. That dirty hippie running around being a ball hawk will make life tough for Kurt he has lost a little over the years. But if the Steelers don't cheat like a certain other team... it will be close.

I rarely feel that strongly about pro football but for the newly minted Cards fans I think you have missed the wedding and are attending the funeral.

I don't see the Cardinals defense getting it done. Maybe they won't have to but I don't see it

Cards 20
Steelers 11

For block pool sake. I really like the under in this one.

My real prediction is Cards 27- Stillers 17
