Packers steam rising to the top. Fave in the Super Bowl as well.

Packers screwed..

If this were sheets, they are so due to bounce.

W vs Giants= +4

W vs Bears = +7

W vs Eagles = 2

W vs Falcons = -1

I thought good horses/teams don't bounce.

Love this quote from Roper today, "If the favored Packers triumph on the dyed-green, torn-up tundra of Soldier Field on Sunday, fans all over Wisconsin will rejoice as if they’d been given a lifetime supply of Gorgonzola, a Leinenkugel IV and 30 extra days to hunt white-tailed deer."

I think the Bears will win. I think the Packers were very fortunate against Philly as Akers missed two realative chip shots for him which changes greatly how the end of the game is played. Everyone acted like that was a no doubter for the Packers. They were very fortunate to win that one. The Bears have been the most non-talked about playoff team in history...it's like they don't even exist to the media. I find the whole thing strange. Packers had trouble putting up points both games against Chicago. Rodgers is really good, but I think they'll continue to have trouble scoring against them.

Bears-Jets Super Bowl. I think the Steelers O-line has major issues.

Im still not sure how "good" they are on a consistant basis. Still a questionable running game, terrible special teams and fill-ins subbing for key starters lost for the year.

All Green Super Bowl....Both 6 seeds. Who gets to wear the home unis?

There is a reason no one talked about the bears. They have a very good defense and special teams, but their offense is suspect. Cutler is horrible and will be exposed this weekend for who he really is. None of their WR would even make the packers roster. Bears fans didn't start believing in this team until recently and I think in the back of their head they still don't believe in this team. The packers are the better team, now the better team doesn't always win. Weather could be a factor if it gets windy that would be a definite plus for the bears.

The battles are won and lost with both lines. Both the offensive and defensive lines have been getting progressively better. I believe it is up to Bulaga and Clifton if the pack wins on Sunday.

Stop it

The Bears should just lose Sunday to get out of the way. Whomever represents the AFC will have more than enough time to figure out how to grind Mike Martz's system to a halt.

It isn't the old school Martz system, Lovie pulled the reins in after the bye.

Jets have a better record so it should be them, but who knows.

They can wear hot pink for all I care, as long as they get there and win it.

Not that it really means anything, but I think the home team alternates by conference every year.
