My thoughts of the super bowl:
1. lots of penalties.
2. commercials were not like years before.
3. half time show with the boss, boring.
4. overall, the game itself was good.
————————————————————-
WHEN THE CARDINALS HAVE THE BALL:
1. Give Warner a chance: It doesn’t change from game-to-game – if the Cards can protect Kurt Warner a moment, he’ll find ways to complete passes.
2. Don’t turn it over: The Cards can’t give a Steelers’ offense, which isn’t all that explosive, short fields by giving the ball away.
3. Score early: The Cards have built early leads in each of their playoff games. They are simply a better team playing from ahead.
WHEN THE STEELERS HAVE THE BALL:
1. Limit Parker: The Cards cannot let RB Willie Parker rip them up – just ask the Seahawks from Super Bowl XL.
2. Bring Big Ben down: Roethlisberger has great “escapability,” and the Cards have to be able to tackle him when they have a chance.
3. Exploit the offensive line: The Steelers’ line isn’t great – the Cards’ defensive line has to continue to play at its high playoff level.
