How to stop Larry Fitzgerald
The Steelers defense knows that it will be a tall task to stop Larry Fitzgerald on Super Bowl Sunday, and have a few different ideas on how to do it.
Safety Anthony Smith and others said the best way to slow Fitz down was to hit him - often. "As a safety, I’m going to hit him any time that I can. Try to tire him out. Because if he’s fresh, he’s going to be a problem."
Surging outside linebacker Lamarr Woodley thinks you have to stop Fitzgerald by concentrating elsewhere.
"To slow Larry down, you gotta go back there and hit the quarterback. You gotta hit the guy that is most dangerous. And the most dangerous is the guy with the ball."
As I mentioned below, Fitzgerald's teammates are his biggest fans. Video evidence right here:

Yes to stop Fitzgerald, you must win the war in the trenches, over the offensive line. The Steelers pash rush is really good, but Cardinal O line is good protecting Warner, and Fitz is not the only good receiver in Arizona. Steelers Polamalu is not so great covering the deep ones.
