Championship Sunday

Packers-Bears. I think the Bears have a shot. It's kind of a strange matchup since the Bears have a great D, but it's built to stop the run and the Packers offense is certainly not centered on the run. You never know which Cutler is going to show up. More importantly, you never know which Mike Martz is gonna show up. If he decides to try to showcase his "genius" and call some pass happy game against the Packers D, it could be a long day for Cutler. But anyway, I am still supremely confident that the Packers are gonna walk away with a ticket to the Superbowl. I haven't seen a game where Rodgers has collapsed to the pressure of a good pass rushing D. I don't think it'll start tomorrow. I say Packers score only TDs and Bears get 2 TDs and 2 FGs: 28-20.

Jets-Steelers. I think the dream season for Rex, Sanchez, and Tomlinson comes to an end tomorrow. I agree Scott, Revis can't keep up with the flat out speed of Wallace and Big Ben is too big, stubborn, and stupid to not wait for him to get down field. Only question is can the Jets make the big play against the Steelers suspect O-line. I think most of the game, they can, but there will be a couple of big plays where they don't and it'll be either Ward, Wallace, or Miller that'll make them pay. On top of that, I'm still not convinced that Sanchez can handle the game pressure or that Tomlinson can deliver (although Shonn Greene might have a good game). Of course Santonio wants revenge and he could show up big, but again, only if Sanchez can keep his shit together. I'm not convinced. Steelers win: 24-17 (but it's really 24-10 and the Jets get a late score, but it's not enough).

I can't wait for the games. Love Championship Sunday. Now if only I had some people to watch the games with.
