pittsburg h -3.5

bears +3.5


no one thinks bears can win here. dont know why, they had nothing to play a few weeks ago in gb and they pretty much shut down the pack until the final quater. i just think gb gets hammared to the point that gb may win but by less than 4.

steelers are just better. the jets blew their load last week. 43 is back. 83 is back. chances are there isnt a return for td like last time, or safety for that matter. tough to beat pittsburgh twice in one year both in pittsburgh. pretty sure its never been done. ben over dirty sanchez all day.

Most people believed the Colts and Pats were better than the Jets too. I was skeptical of the Jets at the start of the postseason but now.. I'm not sure.

[ffbplayergod]

The Jets have proven that they can play with the top teams. (See Patriots and Colts). I DO believe they can and will win.

This is the year the Packers finally get out from under that Favre shadow, IMO. In the battle between Rodgers and Cutler, Rodgers WINS. Packers defense is playing at such a high level right now, it would be hard to bet against them.

[MrMiami]

Homefield will be huge here for both the Bears and Pitt. I am teasing Bears to +10.5 and Pitt to +3.5. Love getting both of those defenses at home catching points in the tease. Good luck guys...

[LT Profits]

Looks like 0-2 to me.

Talking about the OP, not the tease, although even there. I think Packers win by 14+.

I have always felt that home field is overrated in the playoffs, where the better team wins more often than not. I think the only time being home matters in playoffs is if a Warm weather or dome team that relies on its offense plays at a cold site.

[jboy4]

Like the Bears, not the Steelers. Good luck though.

I'm leaning the exact same way.

I'm waiting for the Green Bay line to goto -4 before I take the Bears because I assume it will. Chicago isn't getting much respect and I feel like their running game could be the difference. Rodgers will not duplicate the game he had last weekend in a dome under perfect conditions.

I realize the Jets are the flavor of the week but I do not see them winning in Pittsburgh this time. I realize they have already won in Pitt once but what are the odds they do it twice in the same season? No one runs on Pittsburgh and I like my chances with the Pittsburgh defense against Mark Sanchez. He is due to throw out a clunker.

Anyone notice that the Jets aren't talking smack this week? I feel like the mental edge is already in Pittsburgh's favor.

I don't think the Packers line is as off as you think, this is the nest remaining team in the playoffs facing the worst remaining team. Sagarin Ratings have Green Bay by 9, which means Green Bay -6 at Chicago.

As for nobody running on Steelers, the Jets were just about the only team that did, rushing for 106 yards.

That's well below the Jets average. If the Jets don't rush for at least that, they will not have a chance.

I feel like the Jets had their big win last weekend against a team that hasn't played defense all year.

I'm not sure if I am going to play Chicago yet. I don't feel as good about that game as the Steelers game.

I feel like the Jets will be an easier game for the Steelers than Baltimore was.

il take the dogs , gl man

[zoso11871]

I like both of these bets. Jets lose by at least a TD.

[bruce_outside]

like the steelers better than the bears. cutlet scares me.

Sure hope you're right; that's what I've played too. Good luck!

[counterfiet100]

The steelers by far are the best defense the jets have faced yet in the playoffs...the colts and pats were both in the 20's. Who knows the stats when sanchez played troy last? I think sanchez is in trouble...not that im a hater i just dont see him having a great game in this one.

[Crazygamble]

good luck

[knelson]

Like the Steelers pick for sure, the NFC game is still up in the air for me...

[darren125]

good luck

So the Vikings @ home last year in the NFC championship wouldn't have been a completely different story?

I think the Vikings should have won anyway, but at home I believe they would have won handily. (10-14 points.)

[THoll702]

0-2: Superbowl is all green this year! Jets wide recievers versus Pissburgh secondary, can't wait.

[texashighroller]

good luck

I said "usually".

If it was "always" we'd all be rich.

You do realize the home team something like 27-13 in conference championships (both AFC and NFC) last 20 years?

Home team is typically the better team...this doesn't go against what LT is saying.

Still, I am unsure if I agree with him.

None of us could be rich!

Right, that's because the home teams are usually the better teams. That is not the case with Green Bay on the road this week and Jets/Steelers would be a Pick'em on a neutral field.

Prior to last weeks game look at Cutler's stats 6 TDs-6 Ints, if you look at the games against stout D Cutler sucks and the Bears usually don't win. Last week who did they play? Exactly... the GB will be all over Cutler who under pressure makes mistakes... this game they will cost him.

GB -3
Pit -3 buy the hooks or Parlay the MLs... good luck
