Super Bowl Eve: Current Line Steelers -6.5

16 Hours Till Game Time

16 Hours Till Game Time

I guess I have to prove once again why I never gamble on professional football…besides, ahem, sports betting is illegal (for those of us not in Vegas).

So here I go…remember this is for entertainment purposes only!  As much as I’d like to see the Arizona Cardinals holding up the Lombardi Trophy at the end of the day—-I just don’t see that happening.

It looks to me like a comfortable Steelers victory.  They are the more physical team and I think they will control the line of scrimmage.  I think their defense will put enough pressure on Kurt Warner to force him into some poor decisions.

The Cardinals have a big play offense centered around Warner, Larry Fitzgerald and Anquoin Boldin and they need to get out front because they need to be able to run the ball just to keep the Steelers’ line honest enough so that they don’t just pin their ears back and go after Warner.

On offense I wouldn’t be surprised if Steelers tailback Willie Parker had a big game.  He generally is feeling pretty fresh and defensively, the Cardinals are not the Baltimore Ravens.

I think the Cardinals need to force turnovers and produce touchdowns,  not field goals…if that happens then we’ll have a ball game.  I think the Steelers, in the end, are the steadier, more balanced team, and that’s why the B.S. Report selects the Steelers by 11 points.

Steelers       31

Cardinals    20

I’ve also instructed my webmaster to delete this post if it begins to be an embarrassment for me….
