Very true. But blitzing = single coverage on Fitz and Q = uh oh.
I don't think we'll see a lot of heavy blitzing from Pittsburgh for that reason. Warner picks apart blitzes and the Steelers have gotten good pressure this year just rushing four and playing cover 2. I know their reputation is the crazy blitzes with LeBeau is the mad scientist, but it's kind of like the "Steelers are gonna pound it" identity that hasn't really existed for a couple years.
I'll go Pittsburgh 34-24 with Big Ben winning MVP honors to make up for his first SB performance. If not him, then Polomalu for making some crazy plays like he did against the Ravens.
You wanted the best, you got... Out of Context Quote of the Week.

Let's see... the Cardinals have won all year going pass-wacky, then they win the NFC champeenship with a good old-fashioned run-oriented drive. Eh, what the hell:
I think the Cards get up on the Steelers early and basically trade TDs throughout the second half. Warner throws 5 TDs, earns MVP and solidifies his place in the HoF. Fitz and Q both go for over 100 and Edge finds the fountain of youth and runs for 90+.
The Cardinals, unbelievably, will shut down Parker and the running game, and then will blitz Big Ben as the Steelers fall behind.
This game is going to shock the world. And no, I am not a Cardinals fan. But boy, am I pulling for them. A win by the Cards would do wonders for the NFL.

Kurt Warner gets spooked by Pittsburgh's rush and reverts to the non-devil-deal-making Kurt Warner (I mean how do YOU explain his rise from grocery stockboy to Super Bowl MVP? God-given talent? :-D ) of the past few years and the Steelers win 31-14.
If the refs get involved (like during the last Steelers "win" - kidding), Steelers 41, Cards 10. Hah! (Go Seahawks!)
