Don't forget that in those two situations, scoring points on defense and having special teams set them up....nobody is more dangerous than Chicago.

As for the AFC being better all year -- this is true. Though at the same time, both Baltimore and San Diego are gone, an they were supposed to be the powerhouses...especially San Diego. Tons of people had practically crowned them champions in week 12, and they managed to last 60 minutes.

The AFC much better? Yes. But now conferences don't matter any more. The Colts much better than the Bears? Not so sure about any big disparity there.

Love the Bears at +7 but really, really love the UNDER 48 1/2. The Bears run game will keep Peyton off the field long enough to make the Under a lock.

Scavs,

I hit the two games on Sunday
Inital feel here is a ten point Colts win. Bears hang around , but, in the end Grossman gives it up.

never thought i'd say it, but go colts.

esp after reading about some dumbass bears fan who wrote a sign saying the bears would 'finish what katrina started'. how tactful and classy.

Yep, I saw that too. Pretty classless, but I guess you get trashy fans with every team.

in a keith olbermann article. it was one of his top three worst signs.

"The runners up are whoever put up and whoever at Soldier Field in Chicago did not take down a sign during the Bears-New Orleans Saints playoff game yesterday. The banner reads, "Bears finishing what Katrina started."

That's terrible. I know there was some stuff online about the Eagles doing the same thing.

Lame. I guess every team has their idiots who can't separate sports from real life.

The only thing that concerns me about the Colts is their return defense which was shabby against the Pats and going against Hester. But other than that I think the Colts are better.

Noone has been running on the Colts in postseason...the Chiefs did nothing, the Ravens did nothing and other than the 4th down run by Dillon, the Pats did nothing on the ground either. I honeslty don't know how easy it will be for the Bears to run on the Colts. I agree with the under I think.

[skippy3481]

Anyone that thinks either team is a lock is a freaking nut. I can make cases for both teams winning, but I think the colts pull it out. I'm not betting on the game because i can very easily see this being a 3 point game. But I'm a colts fan so i guess im biased.

[ninetoone]

My pick is the Colts to win & not cover.

49-0 bears my friend...lol

Loyalty and wagering should go their separate ways magma. The temp will not be 22 with a slop field, wind blowing, and snow flurries.

Im havin a real hard time with this because I really like most of the players on these teams. The Tank of course needs an arsenal in his closet, but we will try and overlook that. Maybe they can trade him to the Bengals.

The 49-0, I believe hooves was having a little fun from Saturday Night live... Da Barz sausage eating, beer guzzling, having a heart attack fans wildly exaggerating Chicago sports teams. Classic skits. So a LOL at hooves. I loved those skits, my friend.

[skippy3481]

Hate to tell but urlacher is not going to decide this game. Dallas clark will flat outrun him. The secondary is the one thats going to be tested. Bears have not seen an O like this and I think they'll fold. Grossman leading a game winning drive for a super bowl... i think not
