Breakin It Down: Pittsburgh Steelers

Breakin it Down is usually 5 key stories plus a pick for each postseason game. But for the Super Bowl we'll do 5 keys for the Cardinals and Steelers and a post for what I think will occur.

Mistake Free Cheeseburger

Three games in a row with no turnovers for the Three Day Old Cheeseburger? It sounds impossible, but if it is accomplished the Steelers will walk home with the Vince Lombardi trophy.

Limit the Wideout Damage

You aren't going to stop Fit, Boldin and Breaston but you have to do something to frustrate and limit them. Essentially they need to pick and choose wisely who and when to double. Any of the wideouts at any time can break away for a massive play and it is imperative for the Steelers to limit that. I'd suggest breaking Boldin's face, that worked for the Jets, but I'm not sure how possible that is.

Pound the Rock

The Cardinals have shockingly shut down their opponents run game in three straight games, where the hell did that come from? Willy Parker didn't do much against the Ravens, who does, but he did dominate against the Chargers. There's a solid chance that if the Steelers win that he ends up with the MVP award.

Smack Warner in the Face

Hit him and hit him repeatedly, that's what the Steelers objective this sunday will be. If they can't get to Warner than they're secondary is going to get abused.

When Does Troy Make the Difference?

Whether its a key 4th down, or a fluttering Warner pass over the middle of the field, Troy is going to have his opportunity to make a lasting impression on this Super Bowl. He's the biggest game breaker on defense in this game and if he makes a huge play similar to the AFC Championship game than the Steelers might get to bring home the 'One of the Other Thumb'.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
