vegito61283 both teams playing horrible is a possibility. but a far and long long long possibility. the way both have been playing are like they were possessed. arizona is playing close to that but they do not have the true top defense like the other 3. they have been lucky that carolina and atlanta did not come to play, but philadelphia has probably played the best ball out of any team. played 2 of the best ranked teams in the NFL the past two weeks and beat them by 12 each. they beat both teams by making them focus on beat the Eagles with their weakest part of their games. Philly keeps the Cards grounded, this will be Philadelphia going to the SB. Ravens and Steelers is a harder game. #1 and 2 defense respectfully. But the Steelers have a better offense and they will only have to look at what the Titans did in order to beat them. Ravens do not have the firepower on offense to win this game and Steelers wont make mistakes. Short under passes and keeping on the ground once they get a two possession lead. I'll make note that many people ranked the Vikings as the worst team in the playoffs this season.

Austin Shipp the cards have been playing close?

The Cardinals did annihilate the Falcons and Panthers, who are two very good teams. Also, the Ravens are playing better than the Steelers right now, and have momentum. But I'm picking the Eagles to play the Steelers in XLIII.

I chose the Eagles and the Ravens for the Superbowl but I know I'm going to be wrong.

Ohhh!! Let the bandwagoning begin! Hahaha.
I just looked at the ravens and steelers injury list, and man. . .Ravens do have a lot of people on that list. I think that could really hurt the ravens. However I think that the Ravens D is a little more aggressive (not saying that they are they have the number one D) then the Steelers. It's really hard when looking at the points. Ravens won by 3. And Steelers won by 11.
I would love for the Ravens to win. . .but I do not like the Ravens. . .I do not like the Steelers. . . xD!!
I'm going to go with the Steelers, More experienced QB, healthier, better D and a stronger offense.
And if they lose, then com8614 all I say is best of luck to your team and hope you don't end up like me.

For you who care too much about stats, I looked at the numbers, the Steelers have the number 1 defense. Ravens, number 2 in yards, third in points. Not even that big of a discrepancy. One and a half points.
And for those who say the Steelers have a better offense, you're wrong. Baltimore is ranked 11th in points and the Steelers are 20th.
Eat that. xD
Go Ravens. 16-14 on a last second block field goal. That'll put a bad taste in Steel town. xD

Eat that. xD Go Ravens. 16-14 on a last second block field goal. That'll put a bad taste in Steel town. xD Actually, the Steelers have the better offense, because the Ravens have the highest scoring defense in the league. Also, look at the players. The Ravens probably have the better offensive line. But the Steelers have Roethlisberger, Ward, Holmes, Washington, Miller, Parker, and Moore. The Ravens have good RBs, but no #2 receiver behind Mason, and an inexperience QB.

The Ravens have good RBs, but no #2 receiver behind Mason, and an inexperience QB. Bah. Even if they do score defensively, the offense still actually moves the ball better. That's why it's funny. The Steelers have all this talent, but they are in the bottom third of the league in offense where the Ravens are in the middle. Also... Washington and Moore? Come on. I think Clayton is better than Washington.

Nate Washington is one of those underated WRs, hes a great players, I actually like him more than Holmes, but thats just my humble opinion.
The problem with the Steelers offense has always been the O-line, and I dont get tired of saying it, but they had a great game against the bolts, I know the Chargers didnt have a great defense this season, but they did have a good run game. The Steelers offense is not the same as the one in the season so I wouldnt give a lot of importance to those stats.
Independently of being a steeler fan, I do think that the steelers are playing better than the ravens, but as someone said, the ravens have momentum, which makes them very dangerous.
I think the steelers will win this one, it will not be easy and more likely not pretty XD, a lot of hitting, a lot of bruises, probably some snow and whoever wins, itll be a great game.

And the Falcons and Carolina didnt even really bother to show up. Just happy to get back in the playoffs.
