Week 1 Steelers Predict the score Game Pittsburgh vs AtlantaRESULTS

Welcome to 13th edition of thesteelersfans.com Steelers Predict the Score Game.

Follow the rules below and make your prediction. I'll publish the results


after the game in a post on this thread. There will be 2 ways to win (a


weekly winner and a yearly winner).



This weeks Game is:



Pittsburgh vs Atlanta



This week's tiebreaker is passing yards by the Steelers.


(stats gotten at espn.com)



The rules are simple. Whoever predicts the correct winner with the


score closest to the actual score wins. For example if the score is


Pittsburgh 28 Cincinnati 21 The method of determining your score is


to take the value of the difference of your guess of the Pittsburgh score


and the value of the difference of your guess of the opponent score.


You also must pick the correct winner to make your pick valid. In case


of a tie, the tiebreaker is used.


For example if TTFs prediction is 35-21 Steelers he would be 7 points


from the actual score…..35-28=7 21-21=0 7+0=7.


If Ray Ds prediction is 30-18 Steelers he would be 5 points from the


score and he would beat TTF………30-28=2 21-18=3 2+3=5. If either


had picked the Bengals they would have automatically lost due to the


fact that they were not the winning team.


In the unlikely event of a tie (YES Donovan it could happen) we will


just go with closest to the actual score.


I will be awarding points for the first 10 places and including a bonus


of 3 additional points for making a perfect prediction. If there is a tie for a perfect pick 1 additional point will be added to have a true winner. I will track


cumulative point totals and the number of times you make the top 10.


This contest will end after the steelers last game of the season.


The deadline to make your picks is 1 minute before the scheduled kickoff.


Points Standings will start after week 1.
Good Luck and here's to a great year!

Falcons 24
Steelers 20
Passing Yards 202.8, okay, I will round up to 203.

My rational: The Falcons averaged 24 ppg at home last year; with a more pass happy coach they will normally put up a few more points at home, but vs. the Steelers defense, it will end up about what their average was last year. For the Steelers, the question is is Arthur Smith-Russell Wilson-Van Jefferson > Canada-Pickett-Johnson. I say they are, but only slightly better on the road; thus my prediction.
