Predict the score Steelers vs Pats*

[feltdizz]

I think it's going to be a low scoring affair and not the high score a lot of people predict.

probably 21 to 17 or 17 to 13.

I think both teams are going to try and grind out the clock to keep the other offense off the field. I think we will see 14 play drives that end in FG's for both teams a few times.

my prediction
Steelers 24
Pats 16

[RuthlessBurgher]

Ben and Brady each throw 3 TD passes (Ben to AB, Juju, and Xavier Grimble...Brady to Gronk, Cooks, and James White).

New England also gets 3 FG's from Gostkowski, while we get 2 FG's from Boswell...and a rushing TD from Le'Veon Bell.

PIT 34, NE 30.

I will be SHOCKED to my core if the cheaters score less than 20. I just don't fathom that possibility against our D.

[Eich]

I'll say Steelers 35, Cheaters 31.

Steelers 34 Bad Guys 24

[SanAntonioSteelerFan]

Steelers 51, **s 50

[The Man of Steel]

Steelers 44 Patriots 42. Ben throws for over 500 yards again and Boswell kicks 3 field goals, the last one as time expires.

Our D comes out pissed and takes over the game. the *'s O can't get out of it's own way.

Steelers 2 *'s 0

[SidSmythe]

I Believe we get pressure on BRADY often and early and confuse him with different coverages.
BEN - BROWN - BELL and BOZ will be unstoppable and put up points well into the 30s.
PATS move the ball between the 20's but don't covert in the Red Zone and are held to the mid to high 20s.

I'm with you, but I'm thinking 27-21 Steelers. I must be straight stupid, because I've been duped yet again. Going all the way back to the AFCC game in like '00, when we were like 13-3 with the Bus and they had a bunch of nobodies, came into Heinz Field and beat us down. I've watched the more talented team (us) consistently (not only lose but) get throttled.

Yet I feel pretty confident again. I must be stupid.

I always laugh and smh at this but my HS team won a WPIAL championship this year at Heinz field 2-0 in a sloppy wet game.

Right after the safety I predicted the final score would stay 2-0. First game in WPIAL championship history with that final score.

*Stands in line with you.

Ive said all year this is going to be an L but once again I can’t bring myself to do it. These last few weeks have convinced me or maybe fooled me into believing we can slay the beast this year.

Im also confident guys like JuJu and Watt and Jesse James will be the difference.

One other thing. I’m actually kind of happy we are playing without Haden just in case we see them again. I would prefer to have a wrinkle or 2 in he playoffs and a shut down corner could be the difference.

It was the 2001 season (Jan 2002 AFCC)...

We lost by a TD (24-17) and they got busted for cheating (well after the fact) during that season...so, I have no doubt that they cheated against us as well...

they always shot the gap on short yardage plays.

and didn't they have one of our former LB's that we let go? Vrabel looked like a world beater for them. I wonder how he would look if he didn't have a cheat sheet.
