...in simple terms so that even I can understand it. The analysis is short and concise and not what you may have heard from the talking sports heads at ESPN, CBS, or Fox. They have too much air time, and not enough to say. And why they never said this, it's because they're busy with match-ups and formations you'll never be able to identify with television being an art form, and not a game film.
Are you ready for your 101 course into who will win the football game? Here it is....
Bill Belichick, knowing he's facing a rookie quarterback in Steeler Ben Rothlisberger is going to make him throw the ball to win. Ergo, Billy ball will be concentrated on stopping the run. Eight and maybe at times, 9 in the box. If the Pat's can stop the run, and make Ben throw, they'll win. Why? Ben is best known for handing off the ball and riding the bus.
For the Steelers, the proposition is simple. They need to find a way to "Run" The against the Patriots. They don't need big runs, only about 4 yards per carry, since 4x3 ='s a first down. If the Steelers are successful at blowing the Pat's off the ball, they'll win.
Class dismissed.
