With GB's defeating the top seeds, they are on FIRE! Did I just say Hot? If Green Bay was UNDERDOG, EVERYONE will be jumping on Packers. Seriously, 75% of the public will be riding them right now. But since they are favor'd, it's a 51/49 - Vegas wants money, Vegas wants people to pick on Steelers and it's working. "Stupid is, Stupid does", Green Bay is the team to win the SUPERBOWL.
Good Luck! History repeats itself, Green Bay will keep holding the most record TITLE TOWN, this will be their 13th superbowl win and championships. THE MOST IN ALL NFL!

this is from mamory so the yardage is close but not exact.... but.... scrolling across the bottom of ESPN last night was....
"Big Ben was 6-7 140 yards off of play action in last match-up with GB"
now that Dom Capers scheme was still new and this was in Pitt and I think GB is better than they were last year on both sides of the ball.....
however, this stat makes me think that if Mendenhall gets going Big Ben can have a great day off of play-action
The way Mendenhall ran against the Jets last week was no fluke... he was bouncing off tackles that should've been made in the back-field.... then turning them up for 6-7 yard gains... and that's not including that shovel-pass....
The GB running game has been impressive this post-season but I have no faith whatsoever in Starks or Jackson holding onto the ball while Steeler defenders are trying to rip it out... and you can't expect to get close-yardage conversions from Kuhn against this Steeler front-7.....
just some thoughts...
GL TO ALL!

My first reaction when the line was posted was that it's inflated. And at Super Bowl time, it usually is to accommodate less sophisiticated bettors.I feel the contest will be very close, till near the end. Both teams' playing styles are a carbon copy of each other. Weeks ago, I saw the Packers potential as a possible SB team. And up till last weekend, I was gung ho, about Green Bay's chances to win it all. However, I ALWAYS bet with my head and not my heart! I'm a rabid Bears fan, but I bet against them. Sometimes, you have to make hard choices. Like when I chose the Jets over NE. I'm seeing the Pack as the new darlings of the media, and the betting public. I feel the number could even rise to 3 pts in the public frenzy to bet on "a good thing"! After much analysis, I'm going with:
PITTSBURGH + 2.5
DAMMIT VUE!!!!!!!!!!
You know what though? I'm moneylining the Pack, so, technically, we could both still win - I wish you were on my side though. Oh well, good luck anyways.........

all you people out there on the green bay bandwagon need to stop.. im sick of hearing all this garbage on rodgers the best qb of all time all of a sudden. remember this guy won his FIRST playoff game 3 weeeks ago. Big Ben is 10-2 in the playofffs and last time i checked has 2 RINGS. That right there is advange PITT right offf the bat. Next, you guys are saying G.B. defense will kill PITT's O-Line and their better an this an that, Well i dont know if you guys have been watching or not but the Steelers backup center last week didnt allow any sacks, played a hell of a game, and you never even heard how much Pouncey was missed AT ALL, it was like he wasnt even there. Obviously Pouncey is better and has been our most valuable lineman all year, but i have faith in our backup as he proved himself against a pretty good Jets defense. Big Ben can and will make up for a beat up O-Line just as he has done his whole career, he extends plays better than any other QB in the leauge, and simply just MAKES PLAYS HAPPEN, the guy flat out just knows how to win THE BIG GAME, as he has proved with 2 rings... PITT has consistently been the best D in the league all year long. If Rodgers an Co. will spread them out and throw all day on the Steelers D and have such a easy time, why has this strategy not cosistenly been used by every team the steelers have played?????? If its that easy, it would have been done all year long and PITT still went 12-4 without Ben playing the first 4 games. Next, G.B. running game stand ZERO chance of moving the ball.. Mendenhall just keeps running harder an harder as the weeks go by and that will allow Ben big throwing lanes. Also, the G.B defense hasnt gone up against any good offenses all year, granted they played atlanta twice an shut them down, i will admit that, an philly also but they played against vick in week 1 which really doesnt count. The Steelers offense can beat them in any way, remember G.B. rush defense was 18th in the league and the way Mendenhall has been running thats a big advantage to PITT. Ben was on fire against G.B last time they played on play action passes and with Mendenhall running the way he is, Ben can easily have another field day. Im not sayin this will be an easy win for PITT, the Pack got a tough team BUT pittsburgh is proven and is more experieced and theres no reason why PITT shouldnt go for 7! The extra week will clearly favor PITT with Lebeau makin schemes to distract Rodgers. Good Luck to you all

Remember Pouncey went out on the first drive last week, and the Steelers rushed for 166 yards. I dont think im wrong in saying the Jets run D is even at best, if not better than than G.B rush D

I have to say I was a bit shocked to see the Pack open as faves and the more I look into the line the more confused I am getting. My gut has me liking the Steelers and their experience in a game of this magnitude,especially with points but I sure do get the feeling that the books are begging us to take PIT so they don't have completely lopsided action on G-BAY. It's like they feel the need to give PITTY points to get some of the public off the GB bandwagon.
That said the public is slurping GB and by making them only -2.5 point faves it sure makes it appealing for people to jump on them and maybe thats what they want.
Now will someone take this ugly bag of snakes and lay'em out straight for me...........My brain sucks

You know what though? I'm moneylining the Pack, so, technically, we could both still win - I wish you were on my side though. Oh well, good luck anyways.........
This just made my night...... the best news I've heard in a long time....
Quad is on the opposite side then me....
I was waiting to see your pick so I could fade you....
I definitely will be taking Pitt..... but I will be buying the line to 4.5...
Thank you so much.... hopefully you help win me win money, which is what this website is all about....
good luck!

Sorry about your Jets my brother at least they made it that far...could be worse and you could be a Dolphin fan like me
Anyway props to your Jets for making it that far 2 years in a row
Yeah it was an exciting finish... but it just goes to show you that you need to win the division and get that bye to have a shot at the superbowl.... not many teams have won superbowls by playing their playoff games on the road
CONGRATS on both of your first half bets last week.... Im suprised you went with both fav's at the half..... very impressive win!

I think it's like an artificial grass but I'm not sure...
anybody have an idea?
hey break i dont know if u got ur answer yet but its called realgrass matrix turf.
The REALGRASS? Matrix turf is comprised of a monofilament spinneret yarn in two different sizes and colors. This configuration creates the best traction and system stability possible, and under stadium lights the color combination provides excellent light deflection. It also goes through extensive testing to guarantee durability.
"The technology is quite unique," said Reed J. Seaton, President and CEO of Hellas Construction. "It allows the stadium to convert from pro football to college football to soccer or lacrosse in a relatively short period of time so they can host any kind of sporting event and give the uniqueness of the kind of artificial turf they want to play on." is comprised of a total of 41 interchangeable panels that make up three fields. It can be converted in 48 hours and when not being used, the panels can be rolled up and stored below the stadium.
like i said dont know if u ogt ur answer but thats what i found out about the field if thats at all helpful for u

Watched the GB CHI game again (recorded) and amend my statement about GB. Despite a good running game ( CHI fans sorry, Urlacher cant get off blocks anymore) Rogers was completely ineffective unable to find open recievers. I have to ask is the CHI D better than the PIT D equal? GB needed to score, was trying to score and was completely blanked drive after drive. Conversely Haini haney WTF his name is drove his team repeatedly into GB territory eventually throwing INTs.
Observations: Rogers is extremely accurate putting the ball where only his recievers cna catch it. However, GB recievers were unable to get seperation and or Rogers was unable to find the open one. Again is the PIT D at least equal to CHI?
DEF GB has a fine pass rush but they are poor against the run particularly short yardage.other wise there excellent.
It has been mentioned that GB during the season was unable to generate come form behind victories where as PIT has. Except for ATL I cant see evidence of this supposed juggernaut spread offense when its really needed. IMO PIT D is better than ATL at least equal to CHI. PIT 3-4 D has better LB's across the board and more complicated in disguising coverages. From 09 to 10 PIT has changed there CB play from a large cushion 90% to tighter man coverage vastly improving the short to medium pass defense, however leaving them vulnerable to the long pass (JETS game).
Both PIT and GB offenses have seemingly lost momentum in the second half of there last games and now have 2 weeks off, I havent reviewed the PIT NYJ game, but right now I am thinking of waiting till the public pushes the # up and playing the under.
Flesh, I like the analysis. Looking forward to the anaylsis of the special teams, especially Steelers.

Currently I am still thinking it will come down to who makes the least mistakes. On Monday we might be talking about this fumble or that interception cost Packers/Steelers the game.
Still looking for +3 for Steelers. Spread percentage favors GB 77 to 43 percent.
Be talking at ya!

For those of you that like the trends......32 of the 44 SuperBowl vegas opening line favorites have gone on to win the SuperBowl. That's a a 73% chance of a winning bet on the favorite if you play the ML......that's pretty strong odds.
Just throwing it out there.....should be a great game. I'm liking the under at the present. Waiting to see what kind of line movement we get in the next week. My book doesn't post lines until gameday.
GL to all!!
