    ?? what! Pittsburgh will be favored if it is a Pittsburgh/Packers Super Bowl. Pittsburgh -4.5
    But you have to worry about that. Chicago will beat GB probably. Pitt. vs Chicago. Pittsburgh -5.5. Take Chicago plus the points

    you can say what you want now but when everything I say becomes true, don't pretend like you didn't hear it here first. I am telling you how to bet these games and make money. And GB being favored over Pitt in a superbowl is the funniest thing I have heard all week. Here will be the lines:
    GB/Pitt: Pitt -4.5
    GB/Jets: GB -3.5
    CHI/Pit: Pitt -5.5
    CHI/Jets: CHI -3.5

    Actually, THIS is the funniest thing I have heard all week.

    If the Packers make the Super Bowl, they will be favored no matter who the play. The Packers are the favorites on the Super Bowl Futures right now, so fact that they will be favorites no matter what is not even debatable.

    Also, you have Chi/Jets flip-flopped, line would be Jets -3.

    I love theoretical arguments about a matchup which isn't going to happen ... what do/did the Packers and the Patriots have in common? Being media darlings and ultimately believing their own PR.

    The Pack had their chance to show what they were made of a few weeks ago, and barely beat an apathetic Bears team.

    The Pack will be heading back oooop North to make their plans to watch the Pro Bowl and Bears fans will be hunting for rooms in the Lone Star State, most likely to play the Steelers but after how the Jets stifled wonder Tom nothing would surprise me on the AFC side of things

    lt and fish are correct, you guys should listen too them.
    gb has now moved up to a significant lead in the power rankings. if you didnt see that prior to the atl game, being only slight dog in atl. the results of that game are pretty obvious. the lines are not hocus pocus, they are made using power ratings.

    You should know better, I am disappointed in you.

    Packers are favored on the futures, end of discussion.

    Reason AFC has been favored so often in the past is because I don't remember the last time an NFC team was favored in the futures at this late stage. Probably not since Showtime Rams.

    Fish, the futures markets are actually calling for GB to be more than a slight favorite to Pitt. My numbers show the no-vig line around -135. So looks like a -2.5-120 or -3+100 type line. I think it's crazy, but that's what it says. GB so overrated right now. Might get Bears +4 soon. That's flippin' nuts.

    Pitt -1.5 but this won't be the match up.

    Bears -1 against Jets will be the match up.

    If GB is favored vs. Pitt then the books have a position on the game which is not usually the case in the SB no?

    No because it is a fair line based on the futures, I think they get balanced action with a line of Green Bay -3 +100.

    Pitts -3.5

    make em lay the field goal. Might be too easy.

    Pitts - 6.5 would be better. Give em a touchdown.

    Forget about seeding, Packers have the highest power rating of all the remaining teams. For example, Sagarin has Packers -2 over Pitt on a neutral field.

    these
    are the numbers, we are not makin this up. it is the facts, the futures markets are just reflections of the power ratings as well. you are right about the pack being over rated, of course, and this is coming from one who has expounded there worth for many weeks. too late to jump on that bandwagon, they will make you pay a heavy price now. green bay is -3 vs. pitt, it may change depending on this weekends games.

    People saying that the Steelers are favored are just guessing whereas people saying that the Packers are favored are extrapolating futures. Who are you going to believe?
