Count em
25-30 Big Ben pump fakes this game. Hey that would make a great poll!
Bring a towel to the game. Black or gold or yellow. If you don't have one buy one, If you can't buy one, dye one!!!

you think we can hold him to 4 TD's??
a little pretentious, don’t you think??

I was going by his predicted score. Otherwise I would have said 8.

Sacks?
No way. The Broncos will probably sack Ben 32 times. Our O-line is a revolving door. Max Starks? More like Min Starks (corn).

Their RT is out for 3 weeks
So he is going up against their back-up RT. I expect him to have a big game.

I just don’t think Denver has the offense to compete with us.

I almost went with that score. I felt I’d get heckled by Bronco fans after saying I thought it’d be a close game.

Was it the Ravens’ win, the invitation, or both? Haha

I agree. My assumption is that they did it because it “makes things run smoother” because it is simpler. I dunno if it makes a bid diff tho

I think I’ve predicted that score at least once before. If I choose the same score every week, eventually I’ll be right… right?

I'm not playing anymore.
due to the fact that I suck at this :P Besides, they have Dumervil (SP?). That guy is the combination of Jared Allen, Odom, and Aaron Smith all rolled into one (According to Donkey fans, that is…)

Smith alone is far better than Dumervil on his best day.
So is Jared Allen. Odom is a joke, IMO.

I predicted the Bronco’s to start their spiral into reality back when they played San Diego, looks like i might have been a week off. Their talent isn’t close to ours especially their O.
Fine...

I won’t win, but atleast I’m playing, right Arn? And no, you can’t have my ball…

Good to have you back, MaLoRy
Just wasn’t the same without your rancor and sarcasm. You should really look into moving to Pittsburgh so you don’t have to be ashamed of your closet love of the Steelers. :)

Move to Pittsburgh? Yucky. I am perfectly happy here in Baltimore. Such a dirty and ghetto city, which is why I love it.

This is Pittsburgh Steeler Troy Polamalu getting knocked around by the Pacific Ocean in Hawaii yesterday...
Minutes later, Troy caught the ocean going over the middle and smacked it right in the mouth. The ocean fumbled, Troy recovered and ran it into the endzone. The ocean never messed with Troy again.

I always give the opposition 0
and I mean it in my heart every time. Maybe not the most practical prediction, but something doesn’t feel right when I give the enemy anything. If I do, how can I expect our guys not to on the field.

Thats what I’m seeing from my last peruvian shaman ritual!
Is that a South Park reference I spy
"Polamalu’s lineage can be traced through several roots. Chuck Norris mated with an Amazon Queen, and on the other side, Tony Hawk mated with Mother Nature. The two children of these spawned and fused in a tantric love session to create Troy Polamalu. The mother however died as he tore through the birth canal with a spin move."

BTSC Obituaries
OldManSteeler, ominously died two days before Superbowl 123 where the Ravens are set to attempt their 7th superbowl win, facing the Detroit Lions on Sunday. He was 86. His last words are believed to be "MALOR CAN SUCK IT!!!". Like friends and family, we can only guess what this could mean.

I was going to go with the “Ike gets a pick” prediction, but saw that the donger beat me to it— I hope your right man.
Pitt 34 Donkeys 16
Broncos get exposed for the 8-8 team that they are.
13 years and no playoff wins for the Dallas Cowboys... SWEET!
Steelers 27 Broncoes 12
Are we starting to peak? Does our Oline improvement continue? Is this a D more like last year or more like Sep? 60% of our wins are against teams with only one W themselves. We are as much an unknown as the Broncoes.
Steelers 24 Broncos 14
New jersey ordering dilemma: Do I want Heath… or Troy…. Oh such decisions.
When the tailgate drops, the BS stops. Shut up and play!
28-13 Steelers
Big Ben over 300+ yards and 2-3 TD’s. Wallace over 150 yards.
Mendenhall 75-100 yards 1-2 TD’s.
Good first quarter or half by Broncos leads to our D adjusting and shutting down Orton. I would say they will shut down the run game too, but thats like saying the sun will rise tomorrow. Troy, with extra time to heal, becomes 100% Troy and gets a pick 6.
Book it boys. I’ll be looking for my money Tuesday.
Ryan Clark remarked that Coach Tomlin once asked whether he wanted to be the nail in the defense, or the hammer. "I said, 'I want to be the hammer coach.'"
Ben's greed for the deep ball gives us a scare, Reed proves his worth.

Steelers have a commanding 38 – 3 lead in garbage time when Chris Simms replaces Orton and leads the Broncos to a TD and 2 pointer against a Steelers D full of backups.
Nobody closer than 3 points
Lot of people got within 3. But nothing under that. Interesting.
I was a happy clam with the outcome, picked our score right, just was off 7 on the broncos. They sucked after that early start
You did better than me
For a game i drew up, I sure do suck at it
