So pretty much everyone is writing the 15-1 Steelers off...

I hardly see anyone but Steelers fans saying that Pittsburgh will make and/or take the big game.

Why is that? Ben is too inexperienced?

That is their only flaw, an inexperienced QB and look how far he's taken them. THey have the # 1 defense in the playoffs and the # 1 ground game in the AFC. I don't see why more people don't have any faith in this Steeler's team.

The last team to go 15-1 was the 1998 Minnesota Vikings led by rookie WR Randy Moss.

They lost in the NFC Championship to the 14-2 Falcons.

This year: Steelers led by rookie QB Ben Roethlisberger. They will lose to the 14-2 New England Patriots.

the steelers didnt play either san diego or the colts this season...and when they beat the patriots, they didnt have dillon. im not saying the steelers dont have a chance..i personally pick them 3rd behind the colts and the bolts tho.

The Patriots won the Super Bowl without Dillon and stopping the run is the forte of the Steelers' D.

but Dillion did for for 100+ versus Baltimore and 100+ combined against the Jets, both strong run defenses.

Right, and so they hold Dillon to under 100 yards, he still opens up the passing game even more for Brady.

I definitely say the Steelers win the Super Bowl. I thought it would be a cliche pick, but I guess not. Beating the hottest team in the AFC with your backups signifies some quality depth. This team is a machine!

I love what the Steelers have done, and the unexpected future that lays before them. I'm not sure if they're the team to win it all, but I am sure I'm going to love watching Pittsburg make and break the whole AFC playoffs. But, anyway, my picks are Indy vs. Philly in the Super Bowl. It'll be a good game, and I'm not sure who'll win, but I'm routing for Philly!

Just to make it clear though, I'm a Lions fan, which most likely for eternity will give me the free will to route for whoever I want in the Super Bowl !

Count me among those who aren't writing the Steelers off. The AFC is awfully tough to predict this year, but you certainly have to include the Steelers in the list of teams with a solid shot at reaching the big game.

I am not writing them off, but I am definitely interested in seeing a possible Steelers Colts game next weekend. That would be very exciting. I like the chances of the winner of that one making it to the Super Bowl.
