Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Arizona Cardinals.  Super Bowl XLIII is finally upon us.  This is an intriguing match-up of strength (Steelers defense) vs. strength (Cardinals offense).  While Cardinals QB Kurt Warner has not seen a defense as dominant as my Steelers, the Steelers D will have a hard time containing three 1,000 yard receivers in Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Boldin, and Steve Breaston.  I think this game will come down to how well the Cardinals D will perform against the Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers offense.  If the Steelers' running game gets going, it will allow Big Ben to play-action pass with WRs Hines Ward and Santonio Holmes.  Steelers TE Heath Miller should have an impact in this game as well.  This game will be closer than we think.  I believe the Cardinals are not just happy to be at the Super Bowl.  While the Steelers are focused on the task at hand, having Ward at less than 100% is going to be a huge detriment to their offense.  Expect the Steelers D to determine the outcome of this game.  Steelers 20, Cardinals 17.

Brain says Steelers, Heart says Cardinals...I always seem to go with my heart, then get a headache, and I'm usually sad at the end of the day. Oh well, gotta stay consistent.
Cardinals 24, Steelers 20
