I think line is too high, i like UNDER. Minny will keep plugging away with AP and I think Pitt will shut him down but you know Minny can stop Pitt's offense too

Save yourself alot of grief by trying to figure out a side(although I do lean to the Steelers, but only slightly) and just take the over instead.

Vikes will try and establish AP but that won't work against this Steelers run defense which will force the ball back into Favres arm and he will be able to make some plays against this Steelers secondary, but just as importantly there is just as much of a chance that he is going to turn the ball over as well leading to some quick scores. On the other side you have a Steelers passing game that should be able to pick apart this Vikings secondary, but like the Steelers D there is also a good chance for some dumb turnovers by Ben leading to quick scores or short fields for the Vikes to work with. Weather supposedly is going to be decent this week in Pittsburgh, mid 40's, little wind and no precipatation. Points are going to be scored this week in my humble opinion and the over should hit fairly easily.

palomalo back isnt that big of a deal cause Favre can throw outside the numbers all day long.... I think AP will be a decoy in a high scoring game.... Big Ben will get his numbers for sure... taking the OVER

Viking secondary will be had. I like Pitt to end their run. Holmes and Ward will have a field day.
