Like I said, a terrible rematch. The jets beat the pats the first time they played and then got beaten into their place the second time they played. It could be a close win for the Jets or a major beatdown delivered by the Pats.

I agree there. It's hard for anyone here to root for the Bears, but an NFC Championshp game between Green Bay and Chicago would be epic. For the first time in my life, I would support either winner in the Super Bowl.
Given that setup, I may have to watch that at Curley's Pub.
Really? What is that based on, exactly? I understand picking the underdog, but come on now...
Actually rethinking that one..... Foxboro is expecting 12+inches of snow today/tomorrow.... followed by arctic cold and high winds..(LOW wind chill #s) just in time for the game.
Pats on tundra..... Almost as bad as the Pack on tundra....

Helgrenze- Statistically the modern Pats are the most fearsome team ever on snow & ice, aren't they?
I sit here looking out my window at 15+ inches and still coming down steadily. Foxboro isn't getting as much as we are up here, but easily a foot. Of course, the field will be well-cleared unless it's snowing Sunday.

Wait, the packers are bad on tundra? Last time I recalled they call the stadium "the frozen tundra" and have hosted the most cold weather games out there so snow is kind of like their specialty.
Today's local paper said that the Jets, Packers, Ravens, and Seahawks are the underdogs for next weeks games and seeing as though the Seahawks, Jets, and Packers were underdogs for the fist set it should be interesting.
I mean who wouldn't fething love to see the bears, steelers, and patriots off of their high horses?

Have you seen how the Ravens been playing recently? Ten times the intensity. And the last time they were in Pittsburg, they came out with the W. And before you mention the lack of Roethlisberger, I will mention the lack of the best safety in the league: Ed Reed.
Our run game is strong, our players are strong, and Flacco is more confident than ever. It won't be easy, it won't be pretty, but damn, it's going to be exciting.

Nobody said the Packers are bad on tundra. Don't be silly. It's just that the Pats are even better.

^ this.
FACING the Packers or the Pats in the cold, especially at home, is bad news for opposing teams. Of course, Green Bay is having to play indoors down in Atlanta.

Meh I just don't want the Steelers or the Pats to win it all (sorry to those who are fans of them). Never liked Tom Brady and I hate Bill Belicheck and as a Bengals fan (yeah I know I don't need reminding) I hate the Steelers. Don't hate the Ravens though for some reason so I wouldn't mind seeing them win it all. At this point though I'm rooting for the Packers simply because I hate Brett Favre (used to like him before the retirement flip-flops) and I want to see Aaron Rodgers step out of his shadow completely.

In any case it's going to be a close game as it always is between the two of them. I believe the last 5 match ups between the two have been decided by 3 points or less. I'm not sure who I like more here, I guess it will all come down to one big defensive play (or miscue) as it always does.

Shhhhhh...be bwery bwery quiet, I'm huntin' hewetics of the Empewa. Huhuhuhuuu...
It would appear that the Jets weren't embarrassed enough the last time they played the Pats after running their mouths and got their cheeks whipsmacked.
I really can't wait for Sunday.
Oh, and I'm calling Baltimore and Pittsburgh to win as well.

Baltimore and Pitt play each other.

Okay, your first post had me thinking that you thought the Packers and Patriots couldn't play on the ice.
Yep, down in Atlanta where Ryan has lost only once this season I believe. Oh well he can lose twice I guess.
As far as the Ravens and Steelers game, I don't know. If the Ravens beat the steelers once this season then there's a chance that the steelers will win this one just because their rivalry is just that close(ravens have won 8 of the total times and steelers have won 9 of the total times). I'm hoping the steelers lose because I fething hate Rapistberger, but yes defense is where its going to be for that game.

Exactly. This will definitely be worth watching, whatever the outcome.
Still alot of football left in this game, but keep it up B-more!

Good game. Now the Steelers have to hope that Scott and Adams are healthy for next week. The OL was beyond patchwork by the end. Heck, Scott and Adams aren't even our regular starters.
Now, I'm temporarily a Jets fan...

What's worse than both is having Dan Snyder 'run' your favorite team.
For tomorrow, I am a Jets fan. And just so one bird-named team survives, a Seahawks fan. The quest for .500 continues (aka lose a Superb Owl and be 10-10)
