It's entirely possible with the way we ran the no huddle in preseason and the phins have been doing a similar type of offense in the preseason too. This could end up being a 35-31 shootout but on opening day Heinz will be rockin so hopefully that will disrupt Culpepper and company from getting any good rythmn. It's not gonna be easy, the phins have good WR's and a potentially good running game but their OL is suspect which boads well for the 3-4 zone blitz to get pressure on Daunte and keep them out of sync.

I don't see the Steelers giving up many points, their defense is just too good! Then again it depends on who starts at safety

I'm predicting a blowout by the Steelers!

Steelers: 24
Dolphins:13
The dolphins dont have a good enough offense to keep up with the steelers D

It's all going to hinge on how much pressure we can get on Daunte..if we can keep getting in his face and throwing off his timing we'll be ok; we should be able to contain the run without much issue but if we don't get pressure he could put up some decent numbers and make it close !

It'll be a good game, definitely. However, I don't know if it will be a blowout.

Yes, I am a Dolphins fan. I think this offense has enough to put up some good numbers. However, I know that Pittsburgh has a very solid team and very solid defense. So, while I am not expecting a blowout on either side, I am expecting a well matched game. Again, I could be wrong about what happens.
