Pixie dust for Thurs night

[oicu8ad]

Properly INFLATED balls will be difficult for the *patriots to hang on to. They will fumble, fumble, fumble.

The efense can't do jack **** against Br*dy, never have. Our best hope is for the offense to take their sweet old time driving down the field, chewing clock, and putting up 7's instead of 3's. Marcia can't score if she doesn't have the ball.

Hit, and hit.

Maybe in January but this is September.

On another note. I know on paper it looks like an even matchup. But it's been an even matchup on paper many times before and the Steelers got hammered. NE is playing at home on opening night after winning a SB and being "disrespected" by the league. Hell can anyone name their WRs or OL from last year when they won the SB? I can't. I know the Steelers are going to score some but remember they were scoring around 22 PPG before they inserted Bryant. And that was with Bell. Now both are out along with Pouncey. This could get very ugly.

People forget that the Pats secondary blows chunks. The secondary is a wash.

DL & LB - The Pats have the advantage with both and it ain't close.

RB - Blount is suspended. Their RB is ??? Advantage DeAngelo.

WR - the Patriots top three are all hurt and Amendola is a glass doll. We have Antonio.

TE - Gronk. adv Pats

OL - Stork is injured If he doesn't play then even without Pouncey I think Steelers have the advantage.

ST - The Pats are usually well drilled so potentially an edge there.

Either way this shouldn't be as far away as you might think.

Vegas says:
Line: New England (-7)
Moneyline: Pittsburgh (+250), New England (-300)
Over/Under: 52

Take the over.

I disagree in the front seven. No Wilfork. Shazier, Timmons and Heyward should be as good or better then the best player in their front seven. Tuitt is respectable. Jarvis is half Harrison. Moats?? There is no way their in box defensive front seven should be better. If the Steelers get smashed in this game it is because Tomlin has a difficult time with these types of games and they get out maneuvered.

If the Steelers win this one it will be the upset of the season.

Jarvis is half Harrison.

Bite your tongue. Deebo frowns upon this.

I totally disagree.

Their LBs alone make this a non-contest. Their depth is also massively better than ours all teh way through the DL. And they have a pass rush based on their pre-season. We don't.

What I meant by Jarvis is half Harrison is that we only have to watch Jones play like **** half the time. The other you get JH playing still some pretty DAMN good ball.
