Today at 1:15 in Foxborough,Mass.The Pittsburgh Steelers(Official site of the Pittsburgh Steelers - Home Page )will take on The New England Patriots(..Official Website of the New England Patriots ).

According to the article in todays Las Vegas Review Hournal(Las Vegas Review-Journal/Sun Classifieds),The Pittsburgh Steelers are tha Last Real Threat Against The Pats.

The Following is excerts from the article,i did not write it...

The Headline Reads...Pittsburgh poses last real threat to New England's unbeaten season...

The story says...and am quoting...This game is bigger than just another game,There the best in NFL-there undefeated-so naturally we're pumped up....Larry Foote said (LB-Steelers)

The Patriots(12-0)are 12-0 and lead the league in scoring,,But they struggled in winning their last 2 games by 3 points each in the final minutes against losing teams.

The Steelers(9-3) and have allowed the fewest points and yards in the NFL

Official Site of the National Football League .<~~NFL.com here

And they'll be facing a team that had a short week of practice after a 27-24 win in Baltimore on Monday.

There a very,very tough defense and every week's different..and were not gonna label "best" on anyone because he doesn't know how to categorize that stuff.."(FB-Heath Evans-Pats)said.

The Patriots are not nearly as dominant as they were in their first 10 games by an average of 25 points.

Pittsburgh's Coach Mike Tomlin said people are talking about how they(the Pats) appear to be unbeaten.the reality is they display their greatness.They find ways to finish games out and win,regardless of how they begin or how they develop.

The Steelers lead the league in time of possesion and can keep the ball away from Tom Brady and

Randy Moss and the rest of the New England's offense by handing the ball to Willie Parker(who leads the AFC in rushing).

So with the above being said...here are the stats on the two teams...

Steelers-lead the league in rushing

lead in time of possesion

#1 defense in the NFL

and Willie Parker-leads the AFC in rushing

and Ben Rothlisberger is rated #3 in the NFL in passing

156-0-2 at home being in the lead by 14 in the fourth quarter

Patriots-Brady is rated #1 quaterback

lead the league in offensive scoring

brady - moss attack can spell disaster even though they havent done very well the past 2 games.especially now that the Pats are facing the best defense

afterall,the Pats have never been a running football team

but the steelers are and they will pound the opposition in every game-win or lose

The Patriots - schedule rest of the season consist of..

today the Steelers-Dec,9

Jets-Dec,16

Miami-Dec-23..

as you can se,if the Pats get by the Steelers today...their rest of the season should be a cakewalk.

The Steelers-schedule rest of the season consist of...

today the Patriots-Dec,9

Jacksonville-Dec,16

St.Louis-Dec,20(Thursday)

Official site of the Pittsburgh Steelers - Article

there ya have it people

the #1 team going against the #3 team-who do think will win?

in my eyes,and maybe im bias,but in my eyes,especially the way the pats have been playing lately,the Steelers will once again dethrone the Patriots winning season...

same as they did when they stopped the Pats 21 game winning streak 2 years ago..

so ..

My Pick-The Steelers-by 3

oh yea,forgot to mention..

before the game even starts,the Pats haveta give the Steelers 10 and a half points,even though i don;t think they will need it..

What's your Pick?
