Arizona vs Pittsburgh - SuperBowl XLIII

**WhatAboutMeBitch** · 01-12-09, 11:52 AM

I think Kurt Warner is destined to win this again

**Chi_archie** · 01-12-09, 11:53 AM

As a Steeler Fan I'd love to see that matchup

I feel that Arizona is completely underrated. Philadelphia beat The G Men cause Plaxico was not around, no other reason, no offense whatsoever from NY.

Pittsburgh, had its divisional game yesterday. The Steelers are off to another Superbowl.

Looking at these 2 teams a parlay will be my play before SB.

AZ played in the worst division in the NFL and did not win 10 games

Eagles beat NY cause Plax wasn't around? Yea, it probably had nothing to do with stopping the run and playing stout D. Everyone keep hating, the Birds will represent the NFC in the bowl. The eagles will get to Warner forcing mistakes and McNabb will have a huge day against an average Arizona D at best.

**jjgold** · 01-12-09, 12:20 PM

Arizona only has a shot if boldin is pretty healthy

**brooks85** · 01-12-09, 01:01 PM

Ya Eagles will shutdown arizona. Then they will shut down Pit, as they have done for many years.

Yea but they beat two teams from the best division in Pro football(Record wise) that they were underdogs to.

Go AZ!!!

not sure that NFC is the better division

**brooks85** · 01-12-09, 01:52 PM

on paper they "beat" carolina. But, in reality, carolina, as we all saw, lost that game. Jake had 5 int. That deflates your team. Carolina could have came back in 2H but again Jake. Arizona only scored 6 points in the 2H. And beating Atlanta really isnt anything special, they didnt by any means control them. Arizona's fairytale will come to an end. Look at the routes to get here for the eagles and cardinals. Eagles definitely have an advantage. Not to mention they have been here countless times, and lost tho(except once), but imo, arizona is lucky to be here.

not if philly makes it

I wish there were more cappers on here and less fans. "We" is the worst word you can use to cap a football game. You don't have a uniform and none of the players know or care who you are. Unbiased opinions are always respected and biased ones should just be thrown out the window, right or wrong. Sometimes it gets hard to sift through the shit. Thank God for people like Cheme, Riggs, Strictly, Money, SPL and a few others who do homework and don't tout their team. I'm not saying you can't win betting on your team but your perception of them will always cloud any independent judgment.

**strictlywinners** · 01-12-09, 06:23 PM

I agree 100% cougar, I'm pretty locked in on my sides for who I feel is going to the superbowl, I'm waiting on yourself sportlock cheme riggs husker and a few others, to post what they think before I decide how big, I'm going to go on my plays or whether I should consider changing them. I feel pretty good about my 2 winners though so its going to take an overwhelming majority to get me off them.

**brooks85** · 01-12-09, 06:26 PM

Eagles are the smart bet over cardinals, crazy its only -3. And with the two previous meeting their is definitely some value in Ravens +6 but im not betting on that one till 2H. Too risky.

**gordon gekko** · 01-12-09, 06:30 PM

Philly / Pitt. SB

**Dark Horse** · 01-12-09, 06:39 PM

Past performance factors into how the lines are calculated. This is why Arizona is a HD. What is not factored in is that they played uninspired football after they clinched the division. There is no way that this Arizona team should be giving 3 pts at home. To anyone.

**flavo-ice** · 01-12-09, 06:43 PM

Looks like the public is going to go down fighting against the Arizona perception. Perhaps when they are actually in the SB people will realize they are legit. Taking care of CAR on the road is all it takes for me.

I love the fact that the talking heads and public are already calling for Philadelphia to kill them. Just keep inflating the line thank you very much.

**TheAnswer03** · 01-12-09, 07:30 PM

Everyone had the Giants rolling over the Eagles. Now they lose badly and it's because they didn't have Plax? Please.. The Eagles didn't play that well and still won by double digits. McNabb made the plays only he can make (any other QB would of been sacked on the 3rd and 20 play), and the defense was completely dominant.

**ryanXL977** · 01-12-09, 08:08 PM

he is right, nyg lost bc they had no plax, simple as that
still, phillys d is tight as a virgins cunnyhole

**brooks85** · 01-12-09, 09:19 PM

ahha ya the cardinals are legit. Beat Atlanta and didnt even have to play a divisonal game. They did not "take care" of carolina. Jake took care of Arizona. They only scored 6 points in 2H. ANY team, i mean ANY team, wins that game if they are given 5 int. That coupled with Eagles smackdown previously on them, ill take -3 all day.

**ryanXL977** · 01-12-09, 09:30 PM

they won the games
bet philly if you want, but az is just as legit as philly
same records, both beat a good team on the road and i dont see why philly is any more legit than az

**brooks85** · 01-12-09, 11:38 PM

im not saying arizona cant do it. But based on the way the teams have got here. Philly has looked like they mean buiness. Bottomline, arizona hasnt faced a tought D yet. And when they did(2nd half of carolina game) they only put up 6 points.

**Cloak & Dagger** · 01-12-09, 11:42 PM

Philly took out the world champs

they are going to shit on ARI

I like the Ravens....but PITT has a history of things being handed to them on a silver platter

can they overcome PITT...the land of terrible towels...err silver spoons??

You mean after they already scored 27 against them? The second half of the Carolina game was garbage time, and was meaningless.

**Skanless1** · 01-13-09, 12:05 AM

it's an all PA superbowl... ariz. hasn't seen a D (esp the secondary) like philly's, and philly won't be underestimating them. philly wins a close one.

pitt will win for a 3rd time... i see their Ds as fairly even, but pitt's offense is better/more well-rounded.

**THEGREAT30** · 01-13-09, 12:05 AM

I'll go broke betting against Arizona. I just think they are frauds.

The level of knowledge about football on this site is AMAZING. I can't believe some of the stuff i'm reading. You all should be banned. You are the guys that are making bookies rich. When we collectively as a group put our heads together and cap games and leave our emotions out of it, we make better decisions. This site is not handicapping, its more like KINDERcapping. Maybe I will be banned for posting this, but I have to say this, there are some real idiots on this site. No wonder VEGAS makes so much money.

**treece** · 01-13-09, 01:08 AM

Ravens-Eagles Superbowl. Ray Lewis is too close and he wants another super bowl badly.

Arizona only scored 10 points on their own drives in the first half. Rest were from turn-overs. Not that that doesn't count, points are points. And bottomline is, they still only scored 6 in 2H. Its not like arizona forced those turn-overs. Jake was just making horrible throws. Similar to the way Kurt did against the eagles last time. And also, 20 points with the 2H is not garbage time. Definitely, not in playoffs.

**Shortstop** · 01-13-09, 02:12 AM

Steelers/Eagles. They should play it at Beaver Stadium in State College.

**sports dude** · 01-13-09, 03:19 AM

i agree withthe high guys
