OK, the tight end is going to put you over the top this game. Fine.

LOL


I think its a very evenly matched game... so -3 makes sense when you factor in home field advantage points.


While Pittsburgh is a wonderful and beautiful city, I absolutely despise teams from that "other" side of my state.

Go Jets and Buddy's Boy!!

I personally think the thing the Jets have to worry about is Roethlisberger running with the ball. There were times where Brady had tons of time, but the coverage downfield with excellent. Not once did he think about trying to run with it, I'm thinking Ben will be the opposite.

This w/e's theme song should be 'who let the dogs out!'

CHI v. NYC at likely a pick 'em or close spread.

Who could ask for anything more?

Except of course, the cities of GB and Pitt, who have a combined population equal to the number of restaurants in the other two cities.

Cool Great point math!

That could be a huge key to the game is big ben's running ability. Not to mention he has won the big games. Brady didn't even think about running, now can understand why with a stress fracture. I think the key player is mike wallace, if hes able to catch some long passes its gonna be hard to keep the steelers from winning this time. With palamalulu and miller back its gonna be a good game. Plus I don't forsee the jets getting that great field position they did against the pats. Go steelers!

LOL @stress fracture. He might have been stressed out that those Jets were going to fracture more than just his foot.

Like Brady was going to run regardless of his little footsy. Brady was lost and he looked helpless out there. I am a Brady fan and I think he is going to go down as one of the best ever. At the same time, just like every other QB at one time or another, he got shut down by a driven team and a terrific game plan.

Pats fans need to deal with it and quit making excuses. Brady's foot looked fine when the jets went to a prevent at the end of the game and it looked fine all season when he was the top rated passer in the league.

Yeah, it'll definitely be a smaller draw than Oakland vs. Tampa Bay, St. Louis vs. Tennessee, Denver vs. Atlanta, etc.

Where do you guys come up with this stuff?

ok what i was trying to get to, the jets and bears both Suck!..... the best part of the bears is the D-line and hester returning kicks. best part if the jest is RR running his month. sorry the jets just aren't anything special to watch. on the other side the steelers O-line and DB are average at best. without pressure the DB don't cover that well and the O-line is getting away with "effort" and that's it. the pack is interesting just to see if they can finish this hot run they've started. so IF you like "football" the steelers-packers is the better game. anything else falls into the "who cares" slot.

The NFL is over the moon with these two matchups, while everyone watches the Super Bowl, any combo will let to people actually paying attention all week, compared to just turning the TV on at 3pm. Plus all four teams travel extremely well.

Sharp post.

Are you aware of the ratings the Pats/Jets game got this past weekend?
