Default Bears-Packers/Jets-Steelers

Bears-Packers/Jets-Steelers. Who's betting what and why?

And the SuperBowl? What's your predictions?

bears +3.5
home dawg in the playoffs? i still think the packers win but +3.5 points is a lot to give up on the road (especially at soldier field) in the playoffs.

steelers -3.5
steelers are just better IMO. yea, jets beat the steelers in the regular season and they beat brady/manning on consecutive weeks but i still think the steelers are rolling right now. they have mostly everyone healthy (polamalu and heath miller didnt play against the jets in the reg season) and big ben has way more weapons than brady/manning.

disclaimer: im not betting on this. these would be my picks if i bet. i havent made a sports bet outside of vegas in two years. i just cant. lost too mcuh in the past already. so take my OPINION with a grain of salt.

Jets Vs Steelers = (AFC Champs)Jets win by 3pts

Packers Vs Jets +(Super Bowl)= Jets win by 14pts

This would be an upset season if this happens, but this is how I'd like to see it.

Im cheering for Jets just because they havent won a Super Bowl or been to one in such a loooooong time. To see the Steelers in another Super Bowl would be pretty boring. ( Sorry Mr.Dave ) same for the Bears. For a team to slap the Falcons around in the playoffs was very impressive. That's why I think Packers beat the Bears.
I really want Jets to win though. As much as I hate LT I think after so much effort, he deserves a Super Bowl ring. What better time than to see him do it with the JETS!

These are FANTASTIC reviews of the bets.

Vegas generally credits 3pts to the home team, so +/- 3pts is Vegas telling you to take your pick on the winner.

I think 8 times out of 10, The Pack is going to destroy Chicago by 9+ pts...
But strange things happen in the playoffs (except to the Raiders who never make the playoffs) so it really is a bet. But I'd bet Packers to cover on this one.
