Who will win the Super Bowl?
 
Not: Who do you WANT to win?

Who do you think WILL win?

And why?

I think the Packers will win, mainly because they will score more points than the Steelers.

Packers. More balanced team. Top defense and a great passing offense.

While both teams are great at defending the pass (#1 and #2 in defensive passer rating), I think that Green Bay has been better at passing the ball of late (Aaron Rogers postseason passer rating 109.2, Ben Roethlisberger 75.5).

Packers will win because I want them too. :D

And because they're better. Even if Pitt's D slows down Rodgers & Co. a bit, the Steeler O won't be able to get much going.

I think the Packers should win unless the Steelers veteran D gives Rogers the yips or the 12th man raises his ugly head or McCarthy goes into his stupidity shell late. Absent Pouncy the Steelers offense couldn't get out of their own way in the second half of the AFCC game and the D nearly let the Sanchize play second half hero. Apparently they are down to just one regular season starter on their OL. Although of course the Pack almost blew it to a backup QB down the stretch in the NFCC and Rogers went cold as a mackrel in the second half as well.

BJ Raji + Clay Matthews > the Steelers injured OL

Lets see here - Ben's last game went kinda like this......

10 for 19, 52% Completion, No TD's and 2 INT's and a 35.5 QB Rating

Packers - BY 2 Scores. :D

I want the Pack to win, but Steelers should take this game. The Pack had a rough time stopping the Bears running game even with how awful the passing game was for the Bears. The Steelers ran at the Jet's stout ran defense and should be able to do it against the Packers. On the flip side, the Steeler's defense should do an okay job slowing down that Pack offense. The Packers OL is not as stout compared to the Jet's OL so the Steelers should be able to get some pressure on Rodgers. I see Polamalu stealing away an INT by sitting on one of those quick slants that Rogers likes to throw when facing pressure.

X-factor will be Ben. He may not have great statistical games, but on critical downs to keep drives alive, he gets enough yards running or stands long enough in the pocket to make key throws. Rodgers can do it as well, but I have more faith in Ben because he's proven in the biggest of games.

I hope I'm wrong though.

Let's go Pack!

This is going to be another horrible Super Bowl with the Steelers winning it. Last year we were lucky having the Saints win. I think we used up all that luck. Now it has to go back to crappy Super Bowl outcomes to continue the trend of 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.

Re: Who will win the Super Bowl?
 
Agreed. Stillers win this one. Pack jumps out to a lead in the 2nd half but can't close them out. They have let the last 2 teams come back they have played. Only this time Ben makes a play or two with his legs against the tired Pack D to win the game. No way we get another NFC dramatic win like last season.
