I wouldn't go that far, even though they are playing well right now. The Steelers can put up points.

Cards front 4 have been putting heat on every QB so far this playoffs, tipping passes, stopping the run, covering receivers like a blanket, making picks. The Steelers are missing Ward, and the others can't catch a cold except for Holmes.

Always sounds easy from the arm chair.

I want the Cardinals to win this one. They deserve it more than any other team in the league. They were awful last year and almost lost their top receivers. They really turned it around with their defense. They never really had a hard time scoring points, they just could never keep the other team from scoring more points than them. Now look where they are. They may not have a super high ranked defense, but the defense can now keep them competitive. The underdog of the year. Nobody expected them to get more than 5 or 6 wins.

I definitely don't want the steelers to win, I have never been a fan of them or Ben Roethlisberger.

Ward definitely will play. And nate washington is a legit no 3 wideout. I don't think Big Ben will have to beat them, I look for FWP to have a good game.

Willie Parker ain't going to do squat. Look what the Cards porous run defense did to the two headed rushing monster from Carolina, while picking Delhomme 5 times and making him fumble once. How easily everyone forgets.

Cards FTW.

This is where we disagree. Jim Fox was a moron with the worst game plan ever assembled. They ran it down there throats the first series. After that Delhomme started passing with minimal rushing attempts. He fu mbled and threw picks, and they were in a hole, so they had to keep throwing. Jonathan stewart didint touch the ball after their first drive. And deangelo had 12, all in the first half I beleieve. So they really didn't shut them down at all. They controlled the clock and built a deficit to where the panthers HAD to throw. When they didnt have to throw, they still threw it anayway.

When you have a gameplan that porous, anyone would lose. ARZ held the ball for 40 minutes, how could they have possibly lost? John Fox is a moron.

I expect the Steelers to underestimate the Cards as well and a former coach of theirs former coach will prevail as a result.

But like I said, I'm just an armchair QB. What do I know?

It WILL be a GREAT game. I am really looking forward to it. It reminds me a lot of the Rams vs Titans Superbowl, a lot. Hi powered O vs top rated D.
