    The Packers haven't seen a defense like the Steelers the entire season. After watching what the Bears did today, I'd give the edge to the Steelers.

    New England was their Super Bowl. I have never seen such a disparity in play from crap to great within a single game as I've seen with Sanchez. He's 100% turd today.

    Foolish mortal.

    Aaron Rodgers drinks the blood of his enemies from their helmets.

    On the flipside, the Steelers only have seen one offense as good as the Packers. That was the Patriots who put up 39 pts on them. Both of these teams are playing their best football, and both have a knack for the playing their best in the biggest situations. I predicted the Steelers/Packers before the playoffs started; they are just the best two teams and I think fairly evenly matched. Plus, they can both win any style of game - they can win a defensive battle or an offensive shootout.

    Overall, the teams are #1 and #2 in scoring defense, so both are legit defenses, but with very different styles. The Steelers defensive strength is their run defense; the Packers don't care so much because they hate running anyway. The Packers strength is pass defense, so the Steelers can focus on the run. All sorts of interesting coaching strategies here.

    The Jets can't even keep this game competitive. Where's Rex Ryan yapping now?

    Long as we win. HATE to get overconfident, but Sanchez just doesn't scare me. At all.

    This would be the most epic chokejob.


    I don't think I want to see that.

    Chris Brown HB pass cluster**** comes to mind. Unless it's a former QB like Randle El throwing the ball away, I wouldn't trust a neanderthal RB or prima donna WR to try it. A wobbly duck could easily stay in bounds and be picked off.

    Dammit, that dumb call by the refs might be the difference. Sanchez was clearly passing

    Most epic is choking a 32 point lead.
