Everybody knows the Steelers as a defensive team. Yes, they are, but people forget about their offense. They have a good offense and a great running game. Young Rashard Mendenhall has emerged as a star this year after becoming the starter last year when Willie Parker got hurt. He is only in his third year, yet, he had the seventh most yards at 1273 yards and the second most touchdowns at 13 touchdowns. He is a very talented back and is only going to get better. They have a good passing offense with a great young receiving core. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had 3200 yards, even though he missed four games, 17 touchdowns, and only 5 interceptions. Another plus is he's changed. He's a better person and it's seriously helping his play. He is also built like a running back and doesn't fumble when he runs. They're receiving core is made up of young receivers and two veterans. They have old reliable Hines Ward, the speedy emerging star, Mike Wallace, smart Antwaan Randle El, and the two rookies, Emanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown. They also have tight end Heath Miller. I have a feeling that the Pittsburgh Steelers will have good receivers for a LONG time. The Steeler's offense will be okay against Packer's defense but the Steelers are still a defensive team and will rely on their defense to do well. It works like this: If the Steeler's offense does well they have a good shot at winning.
