is the superbowl line is still steelers - 4 points or has changed?

Most sites are still running Steelers -4, but a few have gone to Steelers -3.5 (due to heavy wagering on Seattle, I imagine) and for some reason BoDog is currently at Pittsburgh -4.5, wonder why.

I knew someone would begin saying that eventually.  I'm not a Steelers fan at all.  I could care less about football, but my opinion is this.  It takes more than one player to win a game, and it takes more than one player to lose a game.  The entire team is not in sync.  THAT is why they're losing.

It was 21 games.  The SI link above reports the 19th win against Miami while the NFL (you think they'd be right) site reports the streak as stopping at 18.  The streak stopped three games after the Miami win at Heinz Field against Pittsburgh at 21.

I think the Steelers will win. How do you think they can they be stopped?\n\nThey have an incredible blitz package, and their secondary is always a threat to any opposing QBs. They also have one of the best rushing defenses in the NFL.\n\nTheir offense has been completely balanced, and I think it's obvious that their passing attack is now more dangerous than their running game.\n\nSteelers win, 34-30

Even though the Miami Dolphins of 1972 did go undefeated, it is interesting to note that they defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers by only four points (21-17) and the Washington Redskins by a touchdown (14-7) in the AFC championship and Super Bowl, respectively.  For one year dominance, they definitely did do what they needed to do in order to get to the pinnacle.\n\nFor dominance in an era, the Steelers from Super Bowl IX to Super Bowl XIV were truly the standard to which other teams needed to go.  They went from being a smashmouth running and defensive juggernaut to becoming a more aerial based and more bend but don't break team during their run.  And, the auguably best team defense EVER (sorry, Buddy Ryan and da Bear of da Fridge, Singletary, et. al.) came in 1976...look at these defensive stats:\n\nIn stretch of 8 games, the Steelers "Steel Curtain" Defense had 5 shut outs and gave up only 22 points. That's fewer than three points per game. Sixteen of those points came in one game against the Houston Oilers. Besides that Houston game, the Steel Curtain yielded inly three points apiece to Miami and Cincinnati, and shut out the Giants, Chargers, Chiefs, Bucs, and Oilers. At one point, the Steelers has a streak of 22 consecutive quarters - 5 1/2 games - without giving up a touchdown. \n\nAnd the scores:\n\n@ Oakland Raiders    28-31\n Cleveland Browns    31-14\n New England Patriots 27-30\n @ Minnesota Vikings  6-17 \n@ Cleveland Browns   16-18 \n Cincinnati Bengals    23- 6 \n@ New York Giants    27- 0 \n San Diego Chargers   23- 0 \n@Kansas City Chiefs  45- 0 \nMiami Dolphins      14- 3\n Houston Oilers     32-16 \n@Cincinnati Bengals    7- 3 \nTampa Bay Buccaneers    42- 0\n @ Houston Oilers     21- 0\n\nThey didn't go to the Super Bowl as they had some key injuries (both Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier) that hurt them against Oakland in the AFC championship game...and 8 of 11 defensive starters went to the Pro Bowl.\n\nI digress...but you see, there is no other answer than those Steelers, who could have beaten most any other team from any era, given their balance, poise and heart.

I saw it coming when I saw the pointspread. A 9-0 team against a 5-4 team and the 5-4 team is favored? The fix was in. The Colts average 28 points a game and score 7 each half. I only watched the first half and it was ludicrous. The Colts drive into Cowboy territory and then turn it over. Manning hasn't been intercepted all year on 3rd down, has thrown 14 TDs on 3rd down, gets to the Dallas ONE and gets picked off.\nThis one was TOO obvious.

It alternates between the leagues.  The Steelers, even though they are opting to wear their away jerseys, are the home team this year.

At this time the Steelers are the defending Superbowl Champions so they are considered the best team in the NFL. You have good taste when it comes to picking winners.

I disagree with the answer just because, its because the steelers have a stronger offense and defensive line, not only that but they got one hell of a coach that makes all the puzzle pieces work together perfectly no matter if they loose players or gain them

the score is correct based on your league's scoring...check the league settings and go through the league scores...don't use box scores, those are never updated when the nfl changes the call on a play..\n-nny
