These two (2) items have nothing to do with the game itself and their future performance this Sunday. As a result, I believe Pitt +7 is artificially high for this game. NET NET: TAKE ARIZONA +7.

excellent point

So, what you are saying is that you actually followed a publication that has not won a Super Bowl in 9 years!!!  I'm not sure which is worse...the publication that hasn't won in 9 years, or you following that said publication for 9 years...

       Maybe you can go with the "it's due" theory.  Therefore they can finally call a winner.

C'mon man, if you are making a statement that steelers will win by 14 do not come up with this crap  Cardinals dominated the first half and it was a high scoring game. Phili is a really good team they bounced back so what really happened is, Arizona responded big time..

Beautiful weather, Kurt Warner converting big third downs and FiTZGERALD!

I should even but I won't do it, cards will win the Superbowl.

to say that Arizonas offence is overhyped because of their level of competition in the regular season is ludicrous, when it counted the most how did they do vs the number 1 defence in the nfc, they did what they had to do against atlanta(sub par defence) carolina (avg defence) and philly (superb defence), as they play better defences their offence rises to the occasion, the real question is the offences pittsburgh has faced, every offence in their division is a joke, cleveland and cincy 15th and 16th respectively in their conference second last and dead last, baltimore 9th, all jokes, the playoffs San Diego without LT and Baltimore, come on, they were 500 vs the nfc east and should have been 1/3 if Dallas didnt choke in the last 2mins, IT IS PITTSBURGHS DEFENCE THAT IS OVERRATED NOT ARIZONAS OFFENCE, PITTSBURGH HAS NEVER SEEN AN OFFENCE LIKE THIS, THIS AIINT FLACCO TO MASON, THIS IS A SUPER BOWL MVP TO MAYBE THE BEST RECIEVER IN THE GAME, WAKE UP, DONT GIVE THE EASY 7.

DAISY CHAIN 69.
 
FADE, FADE, FADE!  I USE THESE WONDERFUL PEOPLE FOR THEIR CONSISTENT INEPTITUDE.  I HAVE NEVER SEEN THEM MAKE A PROFIT.
 
IT'S ON A LONG PLUNGE INTO LESS THAN MEDIOCRETY.
 
THESE PEOPLE ARE USUALLY IN THE 38-45% RANGE AT THE END OF THE SEASON.
 
YOU ARE GOING TO GET JACKED BIG TIME COME SUNDAY.  WHEN I'M IN VEGAS, I'LL THINK ABOUT AZ BACKERS WALLOWING IN THEIR PUKE AFTER THE GAME.

ML is the play! Steelers feel too comfortable playing close games to be giving 7 on this one.

Hulk,

I bet if we go review your pre-playoff posts you were one of the guys sayin AZ didn't belong in the playoffs. Obviously AZ is a good team, I give them about a 25% chance at winning this game. I do expect Pitt. to win, but for tham to be giving 7 to a team who should score at least 21 seems like a strech.

Point taken about AZ.'s offense against good d's, but how many of those games were after week 10 when the clinched?

I am not decided yet, but would have to say I'm leaning taking AZ. w/ the points.

G.L. to all.

I like the Cards +7. This will be a close game and Pitt will grind out a boring 4th and kick a field goal.
 
I would really love to bet the Over, but I just have a bad feeling about it. I may have to tease.

something that has caught my eye was that the spread has been holding steady at 7 but the moneyline for az went from +195 to + 185 and the pitt moneyline went from -240 to -225i have to think that if warner can keep this game within 7 they will have a legit shot at winning; theyve been a completely different team in the playoffs and if warner keeps the ball rollin big ben will have trouble competing if big ben throws up another 21 passer rating

Pitt -6' Big

Glad there's enough Card backers to keep this # down.  Realistically the line would have been 7 @ Zona in reg season & -13 at Pitt.

Get over it, Steel curtain baby!    27-10
