What do the Steelers have to do to get a big W over the Seahawks?

I think the game will be great, and the winner will be the team most successful with the rushing game. Both offenses and defenses are excellent, and the matchup looks so even it is tough to call.
Any interesting strategies?

I think they should play Seattle like they did Indy and Denver. Both teams were good at both running and passing. I dont think Seattle is much different. They will try to protect Hasselbeck from the blitz, so we should ocme up with new ones. Or disguiss it different. Offense, just like before. Come out throwing. Establish the passing game. When Seattle pulls defenders off the runningback to block the pass mix it up and make them try to cover both. Making them do that will make Seattle have a very long day.



GO STEELERS

the Steelers just have to bring the blitz and get inside Matt's head. they have to keep him moving around the pocket so he can't just sit back and pick them apart.

If there's an OL that can stop the Steeler blitz, it's Seattle's. I think the defense will need to write an entirely new plan for this one.

that's a good point and that is why it is so important that the Steelers get to the QB. as far as i am concerned if they can't put pressure on him they will lose.

The Hawks did not do so well against Dallas they only scored 13 points and the Steelers also run a 3-4 defense. The Steeler have an even better defense than Dallas because they have player and coaches that are us to running a 3-4.

I think it will come down to how Big Ben plays against the HAwks defense. The last two game he came out on fire and was able to get a lead. Seatle should be a better defense than the ones they have faced in the past. They have a front four that can rush the QB with out having to bring some one else and they got some good DBs that can cover.

I hope manster is right. I hope they have trouble with Pitts 3-4 like they did with dallas. It would help greatly.
