10. Depth (We have not played with a full roster all year)
9. Team Defense (Best in NFL)
8. LB (Always among the best in ther NFL)
7. Pressure on Bardy (he can't throw from his back)
6. Running Game (Willie, Najeh)
5. Anthony Smith (You will all know who he is after Sunday)
4. Hines Ward (Complete WR)
3. Heath Miller (Best TE in the league)
2. Big Ben (A complete QB)
1. More Complete team and we don't have to cheat!
Any other reasons?...try to look at this game with unbiased views, you will agree the Steelers have the better all-around team, even with key injuries.
Feel free to add to my list, or even create your own.
Pats fans, what would be your top ten reasons why you will win?
I do not report people, so I welcome all opinions, just have some class when answering, huh?

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE CLASSY ANSWERS.
The unbiased view I have is by looking at the facts, of course I favor the Steelers, but they are better in most aspects of the game...?

Masshead... had to ruin the classy answers with his lack of intelligence. All teams have to put up with illiterate fans i suppose...I like some of the NE fans answers.

we have played 3 games without Troy...
Seatlle, in Seatlle, points allowed: 0
Miami horrible field, points allowed: 0

I think it will be a great game...
And I actually agree with some of your points....But, if the Steeler team that played the jets shows up, game over...
On the flip side, if the Patriot team that squeaked by the Ravens show up....I don' think NE can pull the same thing off against the Steelers.....
Hopefully BOTH teams will show up with their top game, and it will be a good one....
I still have to go with the Patriots, when they are on, they are REALLY on...

I'm a NY Giants fan, and like the Steelers since the 70's but... the Patriots are being promoted for a very good reason, if you REALLY pay attention... (Love is BLIND, but don't be a blind fan).
Too much $$$ is going the Steelers way -- and the one thing no one sees, is a 40-13 Patriots win... AND THAT IS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. The Pats will blow the Steelers right out of New England -- and I am NOT a fan of NE in the least. Any Steelers fan that didn't see THE FIX with the NY Jets game, and the Miami game (even worse) -- isn't really paying attention. And that, is just sad if you're over 25 years old.
One thing counts, in any high-profile game... and that is WHERE IS THE $$$ GOING. And anyone who thinks the "line" moves, along with betting, is a neophyte. You ca go back & forth with facts/stats for both sides... all day "till Sunday" -- and you'd be right... and guess what? even Patriots fans will lose $$$ on this game (that believe it will be close, or low scoring and take Tease bets, that way). The NFL's business plan is about gambling -- period, and all things stem from it. It's been perfected, since the 60's.
DOES ANYONE TALK ABOUT HOW THE CHICAGO BEARS -- WITH THE BEST DEFENSE IN THE NFL LAST YEAR, ENOUGH TO GO THE SUPER BOWL.. doesn't rush the passer last night? THEY GOT 1 SACK. And their coaching allowed a backup's backup to throw at will, with very simple plays -- and why? BECAUSE THE NFL owed Joe Gibbs for throwing that game, the way he did vs. the Bills. The NFL is complex, and I won on the Redskins.. because I've seen this script before.
The NFL set-up bettors 2 weeks in a row with 20-24+ spreads, and teased us with near-missed (gee? crazy how the QBs threw so many crucial picks, so late in both games -- and how the Pats were awarded 5-downs on 3 occasions AND a TD that wasn't caught, eh?).

10. The Steelers love beating them
9. Steelers need this game more then the Pats
8. The playing surface is going to be the best they have played on in a few game (see Willie run...)
7. Holmes is back to open up the down field game
6. Steeler fans are better and more widespread then any team in sports
5. Number 1 defense in the league! (and it's not even close)
4. The 72 Dolphins have hired a voodoo witch doctor to put a curse on the Pats!
3. Karma will rear it's ugly head for Pats cheating!
2. The Steelers are really a better all around team!
And the Number 1 reason is Pittsburgh means football and Black & Gold are tough while Red, White and Blue is pretty!
LOL

I think 10 1/2 pts is to many to give to the Steelers, but they are a double digit dog. I don't think the Steelers will win, they have been playing terrible. Remember they lost to the JETS, the JETS. Tomlin is learning the ropes and Belichick will out coach him. Willie Parker has been really quite for several weeks and the only sound out of him is his fumbling. I like the Steelers and I would not bet against them with 10 1/2 pts.
The Steelers are my favorite AFC team so I am not hating here, but the Pats have the O with a good D and the Steelers have the D with a decent O. Will be a good game and as far as the guarantee that got Anthony Smith his 15 minutes.

10 - Polamalu, pompom, whatever his name is, is not playing, so much for depth
9 - And yet, the Jets won...
8- And yet the Chargers won...
7- Who is "Bardy"
6- Didn't see much running against Miami..
5- Biggest mouth in the NFL next to TO
4- Hines Ward 2nd Biggest mouth next to Smith & TO
3- Ben Watson.... makes Heath Miller look like a pop warner player....
2- Big Ben, not smart enough to wear a motorcycle helmet....
1- Steelers are in denial... they cheat, they just haven't been caught, yet....
go Patrtiots.... 12 - 0 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Steelers ... 9-3 .... Incomplete team....
1 - Tom Brady .. the best QB in the league...
2 - Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Donte Stallworth... best receivers in the league
3 - Ben Watson .. Best tight end
4 - Asante Samuel, best cornerback in the league, and waiting to pick off Roethlisberger (can he still spell his name, after his motorcycle accident?)
5 - Bill Belichick, the best coach in the NFL.
6 - Rodney Harrison, the best safety in the NFL
7 - Jarvis Green, Richard Seymour, Tedy Bruschi, Junior Seau, Vince Wilfork, Adalius Thomas... the best in the NFL.... (ask the 10 teams bested by the Pats this year)
8 - Mike Vrable... impossible to cover.
9 - The O-Line... can't beat them..
10 - They think, and play as a team, not as a bunch of "stars".... looking for the individual spotlight.. can't say that for the Steelers...

Add Pat K to the list of classless, illiterate NE bums. Yea, so Brady has more touchdowns, etc...he is a great QB.....but even though Big Ben has been sacked the second most in the league this year he is still has the 4th best QB rating in the league and third most TD's. That's not a bad day at the office!
Parker not impressive? Last time I checked he was the 2nd leading rusher in the NFL. The last 3 games have been played in a mud bath. No one looked impressive in those type of games.
Anthony Smith is a knucklehead. Agreed!
Add Poppabear to that list. How does one become the best "on" the NFL?

Heres a fact...
12-0>9-3
Steelers have been playing inconsistently lately; they lost to the jets and took the last 20 seconds to beat the winless dolphins. Pats have been struggling as well; Which team would win if they faced each other playing their worst? Even when the pats played their worst they still manage to win, so Im gonna hav to go with the patriots in this one; not to mention that the pats have a great record against teams who talk smack before games.
EDIT: And Ashley R, pats have experience when it comes to being an underdog too.
EDIT:"The steelers crushed baltimore on monday night football, what did your pats do?"
You see, comparisons like these dont work. According to your reasoning, Jets beat the steelers, pats beat the jets, so the pats should beat the steelers Again, steelers almost lost to the dolphins, pats beat the hell outta the dolphins, pats should win it. Blah, you kinda shot yourself in the foot there.

Pats fan perspective:
10. Strength of Schedule (Pittsburgh hasn't played anybody tough this year*).
9. 12-0 (Kind of speaks for itself doesn't it?)
8. Anthony Smith (Big mouth, little man)
7. Running game (SEVERELY underrated**)
6. Rodney Harrison (Heath Miller Who?)
5. Tom Brady (Not the mobility outside the pocket of Ben, but A MUCH better QB overall)
4. Randy Moss (Like Hines Ward, only better)
3. Front 7 (Vrabel, Bruschi, Thomas, Seau, Seymour, Wilfork, Warren***, Just as good as Pittsburgh's vaunted front line).
2. Big Play Possibilities (Patriots have allowed 19, Pittsburgh 26****)
1. Home Field Advantage (Patriots are 5-0 @ home, Pittsburgh is 2-3 on the road)

Top 5 reasons the Steelers WON"T beat the Patriots
#5: Mike Vrabel is tough and used to play for the Steelers
#4: The same officials as the Ravens-Pats game will once again be cheating for New England
#3 They are at home
#2: Tom Brady cheated the salary cap to sign Moss, Stallworth, and Welker
#1: bill Bellichik will use hidden cams to read the Steelers play calling!
GO STEELERS! Overcome cheaters and end the madness!
