Big Ben is banged up in the shoulder. Eagle blitzes will make it even more sore.

Steelers / Eagles is ALWAYS a close game.

steelers haven't won in Philly for 43 years
last win at Philly was 1965
record is 0-8 in that 45 years
looks like a good time to break that streak

Steelers have played 2 patsy teams while the Eagles just showed everyone that they can hang with Dallas. Is Pitts defense as good as Dallas, I believe so but the offense will not be able to keep Ben healthy and this could be the game where Ben sits and takes a break. Lets just hope he doesn't get killed. Once the Eagles show Willie a HUGE front SEVEN the ball will have to be put to the air. Nothing good will come from this because the line will be exposed for their weakness and I look for the Eagles to win this game by 7 or more. Not knocking my beloved Steelers just think this is a bad spot for them with Dallas coming off a lose. No bet for me on this one.

The total is 45 meaning 24 to 21 ,
to me a defensive game could be a 21-20 game..or .23-17
21-17 , etc

Maybe worth a shot at the under ?
Eagles tired efter gruling battle ,
Steelers didn't exactly put up numbers vs
Browns...

Sandwhich game for both teams as well

Phil goes to Chicago next week ,
Pits has Jacksonville

Sandwhich for non COnf games...
Afc./Nfc

Disagree Pits playing Superbowl Giants would be their biggest this year ,
Eagles 1st would be Superbowl Champs at home IMO

Dallas is Dallas ...
phil plays em twice every they play em twice every year why is ist more impt than 2nd?
If you win win 1 lose one no big deal
To beat the Giants twice would be more Important this year ...

The Eagles, who sacked Romo four times and intercepted him three times in a 10-6 win last December, were unable to get any consistent pressure on the Cowboys quarterback in their 41-37 Week 2 loss.

They didn't sack Romo once and seldom even managed to make him hurry a throw as he threw 312 yards and three touchdowns

Its the Eagles D that need to step up in this game ...

Samuel needs to show he's worth what he's being paid ...
