OVER/UNDER: Oddsmaker?s have a distinct tendency to shade the total high on the Super Bowl knowing most people root and enjoy high-scoring games. That?s the case here for this matchup. Both Pittsburgh and Seattle are run-oriented, power teams, more comfortable eating clock and churning out yards on the ground. Neither team has great speed at the flanks, relying on possession receivers. Seattle?s defense doesn?t get the attention Pittsburgh?s does, but the Seahawks allowed only 16.9 points a game.Points will be scored here. Just not enough of them to push the total over.
Raymond, usually love your plays but disagree with you on this one. There 2 teams have good d's not great ones. Last year featured the #1 and #2 defenses and the game went over the total. Seattle has a rather porus pass defense, and while I believe there will be lots of running there will also be turnovers because both teams will be very nervous, at least in the 1st half. Seattle's defensive numbers are skewed because of the chumps they played all year. They do have a good D just not great.
