Yeah - but
alot of the Steelers have Super Bowl experience also - especially former Super Bowl MVP Hines Ward (if he will play) and QB Ben Rothelisberger.
If the Steelers can get pressure on Kurt Warner without blitzing six guys, Warner will not be able to complete as many passes as he did against the Eagles.

I don't think the Steelers will be rattled in the first place, for that very reason. But the Cardinals haven't won fuck all since forever, except for Warner and I guess Edgerin James.

I have consistently dismissed the Cardinals all year, even up to the NFC championship. And they have proven me wrong, time and time again. I'm a strong believer that defense wins out, so I'm going to continue my streak and go with the Steelers. If the cards win, they own me big time.

With all that said...Kurt Warner will end up having one of the finest NFL careers I have watched and there is no doubt in my mind that he will go into the Hall of Fame.

This is the second team he has led out of obscurity into the Superbowl.

I have no idea, but I'd lean towards taking the Cards plus the points because Pittsburgh doesn't score that much anyway and that would cover me in the instances that:
Arizona wins
Pittsburgh wins by less than 7
I think my chances are decent.
But remember, I was crazy enough to think Arizona could beat Philly. lurker
