Looks like Pit is a 4 pt favorite already. They said at superbowl XXX in Arizona the crowd was about 75% steelers fans, should be like that again in Detroit since it's about a 5 hr drive.

Dude, the Bears didn't cover Smith either in their tilt back in the regular season...Smith still caught for a million yards that game. The difference was that the Bears were able to pressure Delhomme. In the playoff game, Delhomme had all year to throw and it didn't help that the Bears just could not get it into their thick heads to put 2-3 people on Smith...As Seattle proved, if you shut down Smith, the Panthers are nothing.

^ very true, but we kept him in check. The Bears have a very WEAK secondary, quite frankly. Tillman and Vasher lack experience, but when they play at their top, are great (Vasher is a P.B. CB for god's sake). He was CAR's only threat, and we let CHRIS THOMPSON (????) cover him. IMO, that's an insult to Smith. I can go on and on, but I really don't want to talk about it.
Here's to a TE in the first round, and an even better season next year. But right now, it's the Steelers and Seahawks time to shine; I say we step aside and let them have the attention.

I heard on the radio that Kubiak is official at Houston (that was fast) and Buffalo is getting Dick Jauron.

The Steelers have been the underdog the last 3 games, on the road the last 3 games.. They're a #6 seed, they're not supposed to be here.. Don't go crying to me, you won't get any sympathy.. They weren't even supposed to make the playoffs, had to win the last 3 games to get here..

Just FYI to hawks fans.. Going into the playoffs when Indy was still in the playoff hunt the line on the superbowl was AFC +11, when we beat them the line changed to AFC +3.. So the line hasn't moved much since..
