Super Bowl 2011: Players to Watch

Talking about the game there are a number of players who can be a deciding factor in NFL Super Bowl 2011.

Star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, Brett Fevre, Donald Driver, Williams, James Jones and Mathews too will play a vital role in placing the Packers as the 2011 Super Bowl winners.

On the other hand Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau is putting much emphasis on Steelers safety Troy Pola-malu, who is the league’s top defensive player. “There’s only one Troy Polamalu” – he said at an interview. And he is right! Mendenhall, Roethlisberger, Miller, Harrison can also pack a win for the “Black and Gold”!

On the other hand the passing defense of the Steelers has not been much dominant this season when compared to their rushing defense. However, Jimmy Clausen has not shown much skill as a passer either. So, if the Steelers stop the run, the Panthers will struggle to move the ball in the air. This could be a big game for James Harrison and LaMarr Woodley too.

The Panthers are probably considered as the worst teams this season at defending the run. They have allowed an average of more than 120 yards a game. Pittsburgh may pick up in this area. The offensive lines of both the teams have performed poorly this season.
