NFL: Superbowl: Who ya got?

Bears-Steelers.
Lovie Smith knows how to beat the Packers. The Bears are 8-6 against the Packers since Lovie became head coach in 2004. 4 of those wins in Chicago. 4 of those wins in Green Bay. Before that, the Bears were 4-20 against the Packers from 1992 to 2003.

A friend asked me in Week 4 who I thought would be in the Super Bowl, and I said Bears and Jets then. I'll stick with that, for continuity, but midway through the season, I was thinking there was no way that prediction could come true!
That's how it seems most years, unfortunately. I really wish they wouldn't have the bye week for the Super Bowl or the long halftime show either. I just want to see some football!
I don't expect the Bears to win, but hope they do. I just hope Packer fans don't drive me nuts this week, so I can still root for you guys if the Bears lose :smile: . I think it would do Brett Favre some good to see Rodgers win a Super Bowl.
Slice it this way. Those two loses have come at Soldier Field. In the one win he does have in Chicago, he threw for just 180 yards and no touchdowns. Ryan Grant's 137 yards on 20 carries and 2 touchdowns led to that one win. Rodgers doesn't have Grant to fall back on coming into Soldier Field this weekend.
I hadn't had the privilege of seeing the Steelers until yesterday and all I can say is Wow. They are a terrific team. They made some dumb mistakes and gave up some cheapie touchdowns, but they are good. FAST on Defense, FAST wide receivers and a dang good quarterback.
But they have their hands full with Rexy. Best team in the league? Steelers. Best coach? Rex.
Super Bowl? Steelers VS Pack!

All this doesn't mean **** in the playoffs.
The Packers lost a close one at Atlanta during the season, and Saturday I was expecting a close game with a similar score. If you had come up to me even at the beginning of the game and said Green Bay would win by 27, I would've called you a raving lunatic. The Pack are on a roll right now. The offense is firing on all cylinders, the defensive effort is outstanding, and above all, Rodgers has been lights out.
That said, we will have our hands full on Sunday. We can't afford to make mistakes like the Jennings fumble or kickoff return in the first half of the Atlanta game. And we sure as hell can't commit penalties like the ones that cost us the game at Chicago in Week 3.
Looking forward to what has the makings to be a classic game, and ready to see who wins. Go Pack Go!

I really hate the Packers and the Steelers. Really don't like the Jets and don't like the Bears. So go Bears?
I'm going Bear/Steelers. I think the Jets put way too much into the NE game and will fall this weekend. The Bears/Packers is going to be a great game, and the only reason I'll go with the Bears is because the game is in Chicago.
