the steelers are favored by 7 points. this seems accurate to me. even though I am picking the steelers, i'm not seeing a blow out here. it should be a close game and a good one at that. if the cards do win, it would not shock me but I don't see that happening. like I said before,when the eagle defense (#3 in the league) decided to show up in the 2nd half they were able to control that high octane offense down to 7 points for 2 quarters. I can't see the cards putting up that many points in the 1st or 2nd half on that steeler defense.
