So now that the snow is done time to look to the weekend and more importantly Sunday and the 45th Superbowl. Some people i know are heading down to sin city for the weekend to gamble like champs among other things lol. Things in the gambling world have been going good for me since the NHL came back. Now i know it's only Thursday but I'm going to lay down my picks for the Superbowl today. I have over analyzed this game way to much looking at stats (i think are overrated in super bowls). If i went with stats i would be making a big play on the Packers. Every time to go to click on them i stop and my gut says go Steelers. Now I'm a huge Steelers fan and i thought maybe that's the only reason I'm thinking of picking them but i'm good at leaving that shit out of gambling. Now everyone has been talking about this dome shit. I agree that it's going to be a faster game and the packers will be quicker but fuck do the Steelers not have anyone with speed ?? Is there some magic that's only going to let the packers run and move faster on turf?? Cause if so someone let me know and I'll go packers cause that's a fucking big advantage lol. I see this being a epic close 3 point Superbowl. Steelers don't blow teams out and the packers wont be able to run around like everyone thinks. so lets break it down.
Passing i give the edge to the packers. A-rod has way to many weapons out there to not give him the advantage.
Rushing goes to the steelers. Mendenhall has been running like "The Bus" in the last few games and the only downfall on the packers D is there run stopping.
Defense is tough. Packers stop the pass but the steelers kill the run. The linebackers on both teams are the best the NFL has to offer. The D lines for both teams r crazy good as well. I give a slight edge to the packers in Backs (even tho the steelers have the 2010 defensive player of the year Troy Polamalu). so if ya go with that than i guess the edge would go to the Packers slightly
Special teams i would say is a tie. steelers fixed there Field goal kicking problem by letting Reed go.
So even after all of that i still think it's to close to call lol. This is where the intangibles come in to play. Things like experience, toughness, and mental toughness.
Experience has to go to the 6 time Superbowl champions the Steelers. They have won 2 of the last 5 Superbowl's and have something like 25 players playing that have been there be for. Packers having won 12 championships (3 Superbowl's) still only have 3 players that have been to the big games before.
Now as far as toughness is concerned i think to play in the NFL you got to be tough already lol. I still think Big Ben is one of the toughest players out there tho.
Mental toughness is something that will just play out in the game. I think the experience will come in to play with a jitters. No matter what they all say about only being nervous till kick off is bull shit. This is the biggest game of there lives. Some of those player may never get back to this game so they may think they need to do something a little more fancy than they are used to doing. This is where the errors come in to play. If any team gets away from the way they normally play it's all over for them.
Now i don't know if this is going to help anyone it's jut how i see it. Check out morencysports.com for some more info and sports talk. I'm sure Gabe is going to break it down with a few more numbers than me. GL on who ever ya guys pick !!
Just one more thing

RIGHt on NIck, fucking cocksuckers from GB are the public play but dont count out PItt, especially if they get to that flake Rodgers. This guy is one hit from another concussion.
GB has won 5 games in a row, trend says that ends.
