I believe the last time the Steelers played a regular season game in Washington, Bubby Brister was the QB for the Steelers and the game was played at RFK. I would throw out any trends relating to where the game is played and look at the match up this year.
Pittsburgh, has much as I hate them (Browns fan), has the #1 DEF in the league. Giving up just 236 yards a game and just 71 on the ground. Washington's offense is set up around Clinton Portis and the running game. If they are not able to run the ball well and are forced to pass Campbell will struggle and throw picks to Polamalu and Bryant McFadden. You can also to expect this to cause Campbell to get sacked 3-4 times by Harrison and Woodley who have a combined 16 sacks. Washington on the other hand as just 10 sacks as a team. The pressure will not be the same for Big Ben and the Steelers. The return for Willie Parker should also be a big boost for this already dangerous offense.
Steelers +2 (No play on O/U but would lean to the Under but don't like the MNF Over trend)
