the real question is why in the world would Seattle win this game and the only answer is by the Steelers not showing up. Seattle is way overrated and are in the worst divsion in football and on top of that they didn't play anybody good they didn't lose to. they lost to the Jags and Redskins and barely beat the Giants (poor Feely missed 3 game winning FGs). even their playoff opponents have been weak. they played Washington when they had a banged up secoundary and Portis was also banged up plus their offense was severely struggling. they played the Panthers when they had the top two RBs out and lost the 3rd RB during the game, the Panthers only had Smith as a offense and they took him out as any team would have. so you see the weakness of their schedule? still think Seattle's good?
Seattle will be playing against unquestionablely the best defense they have so far in the Steelers. the Steelers will be able to take Alexander away and force Hasselback to win the game while playing under pressure from the blitz. The Steelers shouldn't have a problem on offense, the Seahawks can take away the run but they DBs are the weakness of the defense and so they will blitz alot. Big Ben has proved to play well under pressure all postseason (mainly in the Broncos game) and he has more than one weapon to throw to so the Hawks can't focus on one man like they did with Steve Smith. The Steelers will get on top early and will build a big lead which will make Alexander less of a factor and will allow the Steelers to be agressive on defense.
