THE 50-YARD LINE

     We're from the town with the great football team! Our Pittsburgh Steelers are back in action this afternoon when they travel to Seattle to play the NFC-Champion Seahawks. These are your keys for today's game. 1)Seattle QB Russell Wilson leads the NFL in sacks. He's also coming off his best game of the season in last week's win over San Fran. Hit him early, hit him often, hit him HARD! 2)The big matchup everyone has spent the week discussing is Steelers WR Antonio Brown vs Seattle CB Richard Sherman. Mrs. Black-N-Gold will be happy if the Seahawks best corner spends the entire game shadowing the Best Wide Receiver in the NFL. That leaves things open for the other receivers and the running game. But Mrs. Black-N-Gold read that the Seahawks have a problem covering big, athletic tight ends. Could this lead to another big game for TE Heath Miller? If #83 is asked to stay in and help block, could it be a coming-out party for rookie TE Jesse James? Either way, score early, score often, score BIG! 3)The Steelers haven't won in Seattle since going back to the Kingdome days. And there's always the big deal that is made about Seattle's "12th man". Take the crowd out of the game. The best way to do that is to take Wilson out of the game. Don't let him beat you with his legs. Make him beat you with his arm. Beat him like a rented mule! Let's Go Steelers!!!!!!
