Official Prediction Thread - Steelers / Falcons

Yeah pain. You've got that clown Arthur Blank pissed off at an underperforming 1-3 , and Rooney thinking up new ways to entertain the next generation of fans. First Steely McBeam and now what? Hmmm lemme think. Cheerleaders! Yeah cheerleaders. Lemme call Mike and run it past him.

Ring ring ring:

Deuce: Good morning Coach, Deuce here
Coach: Ahh, Mr. Rooney, to what glorious manifestation of an otherwise superfluous day do I owe this very timely and might I add, nonchalant phone call?
Deuce: Mike I'll give it to you straight. I've been doing some thinking that what we're putting on that gridiron just isn't enough
Coach: Yes Mr. Rooney and Ficht, Buts and I have been relentlessly brainstorming inside the lab, day and night, and we feel as though we've solved the riddles for the inconsistencies that have plagued this early 2018 season. It's popcorn, we embrace that.
Deuce: Yeah Mike but...
Coach: Why just yesterday Coach Porter was instilling new blitz schemes, Coach Munchak discussed several ways for the line to create new avenues of penetration, all in a days work obviously.
Deuce: Yeah but Mike I was thinking...
Coach: We've garnered the support of fans and media alike, such is life in the national football league, and we've got a big windshield and small rearview mirror if you will.
Deuce: Mike what about...
Coach: Oh Ben will be just fine, there's a fine line between drinking wine and stomping grapes, but there's no dead indians in this cowboy movie.
Deuce: Mike cheerleaders, the Pittsburgh Steelers lack cheerleaders.
Coach: Cheerleaders is an above the neck idea Mr. Rooney. Perhaps some of the team can assist with some moves. We've been working on some indomitable new tackle celebrations. Steadfast Mr. Rooney, steadfast. Well back at it Mr. Rooney, you don't wanna get fired on your day off. Click
Deuce: Great, Coach is on board.

Blanks 38
Rooneys 27
 
Both Defences suck, Ben's already had two bad games this year, and we've gone from September which is the Steelers worst month with Ben at quarterback, to October during which Ben has a much better record so I'm going for:

Steelers 46
Falcons 37
 
However this game goes it will be a very deterimining factor as to the overall season and where it is headed. Regardless of wheather BELL shows or not by the time he shows the season could be very well decided. I think the STEELERS get the "W" today.


For those of you who actually get to attend the the game keep in mind some of us here in MB land don't have that oppurtunity today or in the foreseeable future. I'm sure many here would appreciate a snippet on your version / experience there. In any event enjoy the daY regardless of game outcome. PeAce





Salute the nation
 
I was thinking Steelers all week, but last couple of days I keep hearing how their defense is worse than ours. Tomorrow we will hear how the Atlanta D "found" themselves against the Steelers.....

Falcons 35-31

Not a great week for those predicting. The winner is the person who picks the right team with the score closest to the margin of victory.

The Steelers won 41-17, a 24 point margin. The closest call was Aussie Steeler, who predicted a 46-37 win. This is a 9 point margin of victory, closest to the 24 points margin of victory.
