It starts tonight.

Football, glorious football.

I am ready for it. Last night drafted my team so I have now 3 teams to monitor. How am I going to get work done?

Tonight it is Fish at Steelers. The line is Pitt - 1.5

As much as I keep hearing about the Fins. I am still not sold on them yet. Tonight I see the Steelers doing enough to get a win. The emotion of opening night and seeing the banner will carry them.

Boski Bits of Info:

I think the Steelers need to get pressure on Culpepper early and rattle his cage. This is an O-Line that still has questions.

Keep Mc Michael in check, he is the one who I think will get the most out of having Dante throwing.

But the Steelers will be in trouble if they can give Culpepper time. The Pins want a shootout since the Steelers might not have enough O, without Big Ben and maybe Ward. So I see the Pins airing it out early, maybe throw some no-huddle in to minimize the blitz looks. Make the Steelers chase them and then pound them with Ronnie Brown late.

The Steelers will lean on Parker heavily tonight. Which is why it is so important that Batch make some plays early in the passing game, to get that running game room. The secondary is the area that the Dolphins still have a lot to prove. So if they can keep 8 out of the box, advantage slides to the Steelers.

But then every sports talking head says the same thing.

So the score will be

Pittsburgh 20
Miami 17

Alright, I am out of here.
