This is from the Ravens site, but I did hear him say this on ESPN's PTI


Peter King: Steelers will win Super Bowl

The first far-out prediction of the summer is upon us. In Sports Illustrated's 2010 NFL preview issue that goes on newstands Thursday, Peter King predicts the Steelers will beat the Packers in this season's Super Bowl, 33-27.

He has the Ravens finishing second in the AFC North at 9-7, but beating out the Bengals for a playoff berth. Then he has the Ravens losing to the Jets, 20-16, in the wild-card round.

The Steelers are going to be without quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for at least four games, and possibly six, and likely will have Byron Leftwich as his replacement in the interim.





wtf we are doomed 
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Oh man that's hilarious. I have a hard time seeing the Steelers make the playoffs. If they can manage without Ben, Polamalu stays healthy, and their offensive line plays well above expectations they could make the playoffs, but super bowl? What is Peter smoking?

I like Peter King and I think his pick has more to do with lack of strong teams in the AFC and past team history than anything else. Pittsburgh is a team that was just recently in the Super Bowl and they have a lot to prove this year. Seriously though, look at the other teams in the AFC:

EAST - Jets have a lot of bravado but can it transfer to the field? Patriots are getting old and injured. I don't know shit about the Dolphins. And the Bills will probably suck lol.

NORTH - Ravens seem like they are one of the true strong contenders in the conference. Steelers. Bengals might have a chance. Browns I think will get better than last season but there's not a lot of talent on that roster.

SOUTH - Colts. Manning. Everyone knows that story. Titans are pretty one-dimensional: decent defense and Chris Johnson. They'll be good but not great. Jaguars I don't know much about either but don't seem to impressive. Texans I think will be good this year, I've always liked them. They have four potential pro-bowl players on defense alone and an amazing offense with possible the best WR in the league.

WEST - There's the Chargers and everyone else. Really not much to say here.

So what teams would file in as possibilities if you had to pick 5? Chargers, Colts, Ravens and ...?

Jets, Colts, Ravens are the SB favorites from AFC. I don't think the Chargers will make it to the AFC Championship game this year, their OL is in shambles, they have a weak defense and Vincent Jackson is holding out.

If the Jets are Super Bowl favorites this year, it must be in spite of Mark Sanchez, not because of him.

Couldn't agree more. But Shonn & LT will tear it up with that O-Line, and their defense is just wow if Revis gets back.

Peter King even admits in his MMQB when he made that prediciton that he hasn't been correct in picking a Super Bowl winner since the Lombardi days. It's as good as the Madden curse.

Pittsburgh will not make the playoffs

The strongest team in the AFC in my opinion (for what it's worth) are the Ravens.

I still don't get all the Jets love either. I truly believe they were a one off last season.
