Im sticking with the Packers and I would have stuck with my other pre season back too, the Ravens, if Flacco hadnt have dropped his pants and let Pitts bend him over good and proper. Anyway the Super Bowl I want to see is the Packs vs the Steelers. 2 very Good D's and 2 good QB's going at it . That'd be a close 1 to call.

I am an NFC fan for the rest of the play-offs, cant be wanting our rivals to win

I don't mind the Bears or Packers either and have both shirts for the SB

Is everyone still laughing at Rex today then?!

2 seasons as head coach = 2 Championship games...not a bad start that.

Even as a Jets fan I never saw that kind of defensive display coming, the way we shut down Brady et al, absolutely superb. Only worry is we have shot our bolt with these 2 wins. I hope we win at weekend if only to shut that whingeing nonce Halling up!!

Apparently the spreads for the Conference games are Packers -3 and Steelers -3. Quite suprised we are favoured away from home.

Why are you suprised,if you took a poll on this thread the majority would pick the Packers.Personally I think it's all down to our O line and Cutler,the O Line needs to give Cutler time like they did last night but the Packers D are a step up from the Seattle D and even last night with time Cutler was still forcing passes when he didn't need to.I'm confident in our D that they'll keep us in the game and if Cutler and the O Line do their job we'll win by 3 or 4.

I just didn't think we'd be favoured. A third consecutive road game against a good team who know us inside out (and vice versa). Plus the added pressure/bonus of it being the biggest rivalry game in the NFL.

I thought it would be Bears -1. As it is I don't disagree with the spread as we'll win comfortably by 20-30 points!*

*This is a joke by the way!

I have to admit fella I was looking forward to watching your boys get battered (especially Cro) but fair play, Rex played it to PERFECTION. Really happy for LT. He's talked a lot of smack since going to NY (who hasn't??!!) but he is still a Chargers legend I will always root for him.

A massive ask going to Pitt and winning again, but it's hard to back against the Jets at the moment. Saying that, I still think the Steelers will do them. As I thought the Colts and Pats would!

No sour grapes here,the Bears totally deserved their win, their O-Line was so much better than the regular season meeting, but the Packers will have their way with you. They wont leave TE's uncovered like we did last night and allow Cutler into a comfort zone early.

Hasselbeck played better than I expected and was let down by his WR's, some really key dropped passes that killed our drives early, when honestly I think some of our players saw that snow and did not fancy it one bit.

Also the Packers reputation allows that your secondary wont get away with all the messing about it did last night after the 5 yards was up.

Anyone know what odds were for the jets to win superbowl at start of season?? I was gunna back them but with me being a Charger and being in the AFC together I wouldn't back against my boys. (wish I Did now)
