Steelers cannot get a turnover when Polamalu isn't playing....the numbers are insane when he is in there and when he isn't.

This is a big game...can he play on the big possessions and sit out vs Carolina?

The numbers are even worse when both Troy and Smith are out. I'm a little torn here since Troy's my favorite player, but would rather he sit this game so there's less risk of him missing any playoff time...

Jets cant score points. If they win it will be by less than a touchdown.

I still think the Jets don't necessarily win. Sanchez is not who he was said to be. Neither is the Jets defense.

It will be close but when it comes down to it I trust Ben to score in the clutch far more than I do Sanchez.

Close game and I think the Steelers win it.

If it's a big difference I could see it being in the Jet's favor.

No problem with anybody picking the Jets to win but that reasoning is fucking retarded.

I just saw a report on NFL Network's scrolling bottom line that said the Steelers are not considering putting Polamalu on IR. Well, shit.....I sure as hell hope not. I hope this injury isn't worse than expected. Seeing that worries me.

I never thought I would actually miss Kerry Rhodes.

The Jets are 0-11 in the state of Pennsylvania all-time. That doesn't bode well for tomorrow.

0-12 is right around the corner.

And you can take that to the bank.

With Troy out...I think that changes everything about their defense...I will take the Jets by a fg.

I must have missed it. Why isn't Polamalu playing? Did he get Herbal Essences in his eyes while he was filming that commercial.

Not very Steeler-like to put endorsements/personal branding ahead of the team...

I really hate that this game is going to likely come down to Doug Brien...er, Nick Folk. My confidence is at zero.

Not to mention that this may be the toughest stadium in the NFL to kick at...
