Being a less than fanatic but still moderate Steeler fan, I'd feel much better if this game was played on snow and terrible field conditions. This Packer team looks as explosive on turf as Kurt Warner's Rams teams. But, as long as Big Ben stays healthy, the Steelers should hang in there. They did ok early in the year without him, but how would those other QB's do in this biggest of the big pressure games ? I'd much rather take my chances with Ben. He's been there and done that already, and even though he was far from great, he ended up playing good enough to help lead his team to the win. We all know he is capable of playing bad enough to help cause a loss, but I hope that's not the case.
