Super Bowl Prediction

Pittsburgh 31 Arizona 28

A lot has been made about Arizona's offense and Pittsburgh's defense, as it should seeing as both are among the greatest in the league in their respective categories, but those are essentially going to cancel out. What is going to determine this game is Pittsburgh's offense versus Arizona's defense. Both have been streaky this year, but Arizona's defense has had a knack for being really bad on occasions, such as against New England and against the Jets. Pittsburgh has a quarterback who has won a Super Bowl already and Arizona does not have that type of leader on the defense. Pittsburgh also is more prone to losing against teams that have good pass rushes and Arizona's was right in the middle of the pack. The game is going to be a high scoring one, but I think the fact that Roethlisberger is going to be able to keep up with Warner, who is playing against Pittsburgh's #1 ranked defense, along with Pittsburgh's superior running game is going to be able to boost the Steelers to their 2nd Super Bowl in 4 years.
