man....since when do you make the case of "experience" on a team where Big Ben in is his 2nd year...and their starting running back only emerged as a star this year?

Alexander and Hassleback been solid for a minute....they just got a good defense this year....


if you're telling me the youth side has the league MVP...yeah I'll take the youth side....but thats not even my point....I want the Steelers to win.....I'm just wondering why no one likes the Seahawks...

I'm just the other way. I love the Seahawks but I know the Steelers are gonna win. It's not that I don't have love for the Seahawks, it's that I have money put on the playoffs and if the Seahawks win then I lose my pool money (it's about $75) and if the Steelers win, then I'll win it.
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

Yes, Ben is young...But...He does have the experience...Shit man, he is pretty much surrounded by veterans...The Pats kicked their ass on their way to the SB last year, he was obviously nervous and shaky...

Based on his play thus far in these playoffs...Is that what you've seen..? A young, shaky QB..? Or a young, but experienced and battle tested QB..?

The Steelers D is full of Veterans and playmakers...Without a doubt...And they've shown up all over the playoffs...Shit, they couldn't even cheat them out of a win in Indianapolis...Hasslebeck is going to get popped one good time, and its going to be over for your league MVP...Who, we already established, is a one way threat...I do not think that SA is going to pound the Steelers all by himself...Hasslebeck will have to do it, and I don't think he can against the Steelers...

He did against Carolina....a good, veteran defensive team..


I think it's definitely a toss up...
