The Saints D is playing well, but you've also faced three rookie QBs, a 2nd year guy in Freeman, Alex Smith, and a decrepit Favre. Matt Ryan was easily the best QB you faced and he had a pretty good game. This will be your pass defense's biggest test.

Unfortunately for the Steelers, your offense should be able to take advantage of soft zones all game long. With Aaron Smith the defense takes a hit, and if injured Woodley and Keisel don't return, this could be an epic shootout like in 2006.

I like the Saints in this one. Big game, backs a bit against the wall, playing at home and at night coming off a bad performance.
