Super Bowl Predictions Follow Up

Wow, come on now, I was pretty spot on with my predictions. I mean, I got the score spot on, just flipped the teams around. Fitzgerald, Boldin, and even Warner's numbers were pretty damn close to the actual ones. And had Santonio Holmes not played deity on that last drive, the Cardinals win and Warner has a solid chance of nabbing his 2nd Super Bowl MVP. Great game, though the officiating was atrocious and the fact that they didn't at least review that last play of the game is just mind-boggling. Congrats to the Steelers, and also to the Cardinals for a helluva season.

Quick Super Bowl Predictions

Just wanted to put up a few predictions before the big game. It seems people are still doubting Arizona, but from the evidence of recent years I won't. The team that catches that fire at the right time just finds a way to keep it burning until the end. Pittsburgh has been solid all season long, and their defense is a beast, but can their offense put up some points against the Cardinals' improved D? So here goes nothing:

Pittsburgh 23
Arizona 27

MVP: Kurt Warner 287 yards 2TD 2INT
Larry Fitzgerald: 8 receptions, 87 yards 1 TD
Anquan Boldin: 9 receptions 98 yards
