Steelers vs Patriots: NFL Week 14 Picks and Live Thread
READ MORE:
NFL, New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers
by CriticalFanatic more posts by author
236

Big week for actual playoff positioning and an even bigger week for fantasy football playoffs. Good luck to you in the latter. Then of course, there's that big game in New England. Can the Patriots undefeated season continue?

Here's my week 14 predictions to get us started today. Feel free to share your picks and Q up today's NFL action below.

Patriots 31, Steelers 28
I think this will be a great back and forth game with several lead changes and ties, but ultimately the Pats get it done. If the game was in Pittsburgh, I might be compelled to pick the upset. They're precisely the type of physical, blitzing team best suited to beat New England. I say it comes down to one more Steeler turnover than they can afford and another late Patriots touchdown. Can't wait to watch.

Bills 17, Dolphins 13
Bengals 38, Rams 24
Cowboys 35, Lions 17
Packers 23, Raiders 20
Texans 24, Bucs 17
Jaguars 20, Panthers 10
Eagles 27, Giants 24
Chargers 24, Titans 16
Vikings 24, 49ers 10
Cardinals 24, Seahawks 23
Broncos 21, Chiefs 14
Jets 16, Browns 14

My pick:

Patriots 41, Steelers 17 ... the rest of the games don't matter to me all that much. But if the Pats win and the Ravens handle the Colts, the Patriots clinch the #1 seed.

41-17?  I think that's a bit of a stretch, this game will be A LOT closer than that.  I don't see the Pats winning by more than 9.

That's fine. A lot of people might agree with you. But a lot of people think very highly of this Steelers team. And I'm still wondering why. Remind me...who have they beaten?

Honestly, Pittsburgh IMO is the 4th best team in the AFC, but they match up fairly well, and teams don't go unbeaten.  Watching the Patriots this year is like watching someone play Tecmo Super Bowl.  They flatten the first 10 or so opponants, then play a few close and lose one, and then go back to flattening people.  I think the flattening resumes next week.

 

I just think 41-17 is a pretty big stretch, considering the Pats have almost lost to the Eagles and Ravens.  The Steelers are very similar to the Ravens, except twice as good.

Pittsburgh might be the 4th best team in the AFC. But the Patriots are THE best team in the NFL. And those close games were the wakeup call that they needed. They won't let the Steelers sneak up on them. They will be ruthless today, and Big Ben will more than likely leave the field in tears.

Indeed the Patriots are the best, but everybody loses one.


We'll see, I think we're going to have a very close and very entertaining game.

I've been saying it since week 3 or 4, the Patriots won't go 16-0.  It won't happen, either they lose this week, or they'll lose when resting some people against the Giants.

 

Titans stall, FG.  Bengals get a TD, Rudi run.

I've said it since weeek 3 or 4 as well...they WILL go 16-0. So far, your time is running out, and my prediction is only becoming more and more correct every week.

Rosenfels has actually been alright this year when he's played for Schaub.  McCown was decent last week too.  Both have pretty good teams' around them, and they aren't THAT bad.

Nice return by Chad Jackson...I hope the Steelers enjoy their few minutes in the lead, because it's all downhill for them from here. Patriots WR's dropped some passes in the first series, and that's not going to happen again.

Hahaha. I'm glad you're here. This could be pretty fun. A few things you might want to keep in mind thus far:

  • The Patriots offense will AT LEAST match those offensive drives
  • Maroney is looking considerably better than Willie Parker so far

Those two, especially Maroney stepping up, will prove to be huge in this game.

Yikes...  Seriously, Moss is the MVP this year.  I really don't think there's any need for a discussion at this point.  When Moss is limited the Patriots are very beatable, when he is unleashed they are unbeatable.  Its pretty much that simple.

Before you say anything Pat, I live in Western PA. I know how bad the Steelers fans are going to be if they win.

Honestly, I wouldn't be as much of an a-hole if it weren't for the constant trash-talking from Patriots haters. I understand that people don't like them...that's fine. But to try to discredit what they've done, and to try to say I'M the idiot for predicting they win...that's just crossing the line into blatant stupidity, and I just have no respect for that.

Yikes...  Seriously, Moss is the MVP this year.  I really don't think there's any need for a discussion at this point.  When Moss is limited the Patriots are very beatable, when he is unleashed they are unbeatable.  Its pretty much that simple.
Thank you. I think it's pretty unfortunate he's be overlooked with all credit to Tom Brady. Clearly Brady is great, but Moss's presence is the bigger factor.

It's stupid things like THAT that cost you games.  Pittsburgh had a huge opportunity on this next drive, and they blow a punt and give the Pats the ball back right in FG range.

84 yd run by Taylor, TD Vikes.  And the Broncos score, 21-7.

I can see that. I mean, I don't like the Boston teams, but I would like to think I'm objective enough to understand how good they are and how well they are run (except the Celtics, since they basically took advantage of McHale's stupidity). I can see why people are picking the Steelers, but to say it's definite is pretty arrogant and short-sighted, on both sides of the equation.

That was headfirst? I always thought "headfirst" was more of a diving thing. That looked like more of a fetal position sort of slide...
