Sorry, the Seahawks have the best front 7 in all of football.

[/ QUOTE ]

They can be one of the best front 7, but they are very undersized. Where was Indy's front 7? Same type deal... great speed but undersized.

Indy's problem was Manning audibling til 1 second every play making it too easy for Polamalu et al to get a great jump on the snap.

We're talking defense here big guy.

The worry I have is that we didn't run particularly well in that game. The inability to close it out with the run burned us there. Obviously the interception made the game much closer that it should have been but had Pittsburgh ran the ball well in the second half it wouldn't have been close anyway.

Hi Jack,

You're insane.

Best,

Zod

PS: one of the teams w/ a better front 7 happens to be the one Seattle will be playing Sunday.

The Patriots - at the end of the season, when they were finally healthy - had the best front 7 in the NFL.

Indy's front 7 was below average in run defense.

I get that a lot, but more often than not I get to rub it in people's faces.

Seattle is very good at stopping teams in short yardage situations and stopping RBs behind the line. they give up a decent amount of long runs, but nothing preposterous. Neither Willie nor Jerome will have much success, but Willie might break one as is his nature to do so.

Set the O/U on Pitt's rushing yards on the first half.

that's very hard to do, especially given the way Pitt has come out throwing recently. I can only guess as to what their gameplan will be.

but, I'll play. somewhere around 50 is probably about right.
Seattle should have more. But that doesn't mean their front 7 is better.

Almost certainly under 50. Pit has sucked at running the ball for the last 5 or so weeks.

I expect them to get like 35~39 yrds.
