The 13ers Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I heard Rich Eisen say that the Packer/Bears is the appetizer to the Jets/Steelers game. Everything I've heard is the Packer/Bear game may be an all timer, but I'm in the middle of Packerland/Bearland. I was just curious what the people who aren't fans of the four teams think. Which game would you rather watch? Which of the two is the BIG game this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 They are both the BIG game this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Dick Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 My son loves the Packers, so that's the big game for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Pack/Bears has a better storyline being hated longtime rivals, but I think Jets/Steelers is more likely to be an entertaining/close game. They are both big games, neither bigger than the other. Interesting that in both cases, the road team has already beaten the home team in the home team's stadium. Also cool to think that two 6-seeds might be in the Super Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustOfBeenDrunk Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 It has to be the "Big Bay Blues" game for me and I'm hoping for a high scoring game with the Bay Blues coming out on top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 There's something really relaxing about not having esp strong feelings either way about the remaining teams. Plus all 4 are legit and belong. So I'm equally interested in both and just hope both are good games and not won on a stupid penalty or boneheaded turnover (etc).

I'd add in, hopefully not decided by referee's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

historymike Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) I am a bit more partial to the GB-CHI game, probably due in part to the fact that I live in the region (Toledo, an hour south of Detroit). Still, the PIT-NYJ game looks like another great matchup, and I do like that we have lower seeds competing deep into the playoffs. That, plus Aaron Rodgers won me more than a little green this FF season, so I have been following the Packers a bit more closely than normal. Rodgers is also keeping me alive in two playoff FF contests, too, so I am pulling for the dude to go to the Super Bowl if for no other reason than another couple hundred simoleans in my pocket. :-) Edited January 21, 2011 by historymike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
