The Superbowl is set
Pittsburgh vs. Arizona. The Steel Curtain vs. the Redbirds.
Russ Grimm and Ken Whisenhunt vs. their old team.
The game should be good. I have a hard time believing any game can match up to last year in Arizona. I will say that Superbowl is still the best single championship game I have ever seen and one of the best games ever. Period, end of story.
So where do I begin? I like the match up first off. I really like it actually. High powered offense and the best receiving corps probably ever assembled against the number one ranked defense this year. I like two team strengths being able to be on the field at the same time.
In terms of team breakdown I will keep it short and sweet…
Pittsburgh has no business being in the Superbowl. There I have said it. I don’t like the Steelers offense and I have no idea how they have managed to make it this far without some team coming up and biting them in the ass is beyond me completely. The offensive line is just not very good and I cannot get behind Willie Parker this year for some reason.
The Cardinalsare a bit different for me. I see a team that is having a true cinderella season and I am happy for them. I like the fact that the city of Phoenix has a team other than the D-Backs to be happy for in terms of a championship caliber squad because in the valley of the sun, the Suns and Coyotes are just not at that level.
So I am rooting for the Cardinals but I am by no means on any type of bandwagon. A bandwagon that has seen quite a few new members in the state of Arizona I might add.
I am going to make the prediction that everyone is going to make and saythat the Cardinals win in a very tight game 24-17. Oh, and by the way the Falcons are going to win it all next year!
