[Pete Geither]

I'll take Pittsburgh.

I'll take Philly.
The Eagles did a number on the Steelers earlier this year.

Yes but this is serious business, and the Steelers usually take care of business.

I thought the Eagles laid a serious whoopin' on the Steelers earlier this year.

i don't know about "whoopin'" but that was the game when i thought the eagles defense realized what they could do

* Both need to get past the other respective teams (AZ & Balt.).

However, considering ALL other teams are have sort of BIRDS for mascot... cute.

This is a very interesting year for NFL football; only one true legacy team remaining. Maybe it will be a STEAGLES will return - only in the S.Bowl.

Nice, that is why we live in AMERICA. Anything can happen here.
Very exciting.

i have a feeling if the eagles only score 16 points they will not win the game. cardinals scored 20+ in philly and i know the eagles' D is big right now, but i think the score will be more like 28-24

I'd personally rather see a Baltimore/Philly Super Bowl. Cities are closer to each other, and both close to me geographically. Plus I like Joe Flacco. I wouldn't mind seeing either the Iggs or Ravens win the whole thing.

I gotta agree. Too bad such a match-up will be played in a faraway place.
Where is the S Bowl this year?

Yeah the Cards scored 20 points, but the Iggles scored 48.
I think both teams are currently playing a game different from back on Thanksgiving Day.

You can't trust a team like the Cardinals when they go against one of these defenses that play with fury!

And if somebody has the Steelers 20 / Ravens 16, give me the under. Can't wait for next weeks games. Could be the best football we will see all season, including the Super Bowl......
And btw, is that Larry Fitzgerald not the alpha male of receivers right now!!!

He sure was Saturday night.

I still maintain that most TV sports experts are idiots--they talk about the importance of defense, but fail to appreciate it when they see it.
Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and even the Titans play at a different level defensively than most other teams. They play smarter, and close quicker, and hit harder than "normal" teams.

Yes Tennesee had a bad day, offensively; they had three turnovers. However, those turnovers are often caused by offensive players just not wanting to get hit again. Turnovers are caused by good defense.

As the TV prognosticators pick Pittsburg this week, remember their ( experts) record. Some of these TV experts have yet to pick even one game correctly.
In any event, it will be decided on the field. Baltimore and Pittsburgh--in your heart you knew it had to come down to this one.

Even Baltimore fans were thinking 6 victories this year wopuld have been a good year; now we want it all.

I want to see Philly lose so that Asante "Get Paid" Samuel falls short of the Super Bowl.

That just about guarantees a Philly win. Eagles 3, Pitt 2.
