Super Bowl Preview

An interesting day of conference championship games. Neither game was particularly close. Both Pittsburgh and Seattle won the same way. They got ahead early by passing against defenses that were trying to stop the run, then they extended their leads by capitalizing on turnovers and sealed the game with some hard running.
The two Jakes really cost their teams by making some bad mistakes. I really have no idea who is going to win the Super Bowl.
I love the way Roethlisberger is playing right now. There was to be a reason why the only QBs he's lost to are Brady and Manning. (Correction from Derek: Ben's fourth loss was to Carson Palmer).
I also think Seattle has a very balanced team and Hasselbeck has been avoiding mistakes.
Both teams have excellent defenses and good running games.
As always it will come down to the hardest thing to predict, turnovers.
