Super Bowl Preview

Well this is it. The Super Bowl is just about here. So, as is traditional and before I put myself in a calorie coma from too much red meat, let’s cover a preview of this game, position-by-position. We’ll start off with the grinders in the middle.

Offensive-Line: It’s odd that for a pair of teams that have come this far and have had so much success through the course of the regular season and post season would have such maligned offensive lines. This is especially true of the Steelers offensive line. All of that certainly has to do with the amount of injuries that the Steelers offensive line has suffered. Planned starting tackles Willie Colon and Max Starks have missed the majority of this season with injuries, leaving the responsibility of protecting Ben Roethlisberger’s flanks to Flozell Adams and Jonathan Scott. Scott has been pretty good in the running game and can stonewall weak pass rushers, but does struggle with faster players (like Clay Matthews).
