5* "7 PT." Teaser = Chicago (+10.5) - "UNDER" (50) -130
The Bears have only lost by 10 or more to the Packers once in their last 8 meetings and i just don't see it happening again this week at home. I think it will be a battle that will be won by 3-7 points and i'm not sold on which team i even think it will be. This is a Division game for G.B. and they will certainly face a tougher task versus a team that knows their every move. Chicago will struggle as well for the same reasons. That is one reason why i like the under. These 2 teams have gone under in 8 of their last 10 meetings. I think Hester could be the difference between a win or a loss too. His play and his play alone, could decide this game. Both as a return man and a WR. They will focus on Knox & Olsen and try to keep Forte held in check too. Hester is the wildcard. The Packers have a great shot at winning, simply because they have found a tough downfield running game at the right time of the year and they have the hottest QB in football right now, along with a defense that has playmakers everywhere on it. Tough game to pick a winner but it should be a battle! I'll go with the Packers 20-17
5* Pittsburgh -3 (-130)
5* "7 PT." Teaser = Pitt. (+3.5) - "OVER" (31.5) -130
The Jets played their Super Bowl last week. If you followed the hype and non stop talk, you would have to agree with that. Getting past the Patriots and over the hump was an all out effort by the Jets and it was led by the inspirational Dennis Byrd speech after he was flown in Saturday night and they even carried his jersey out to midfield for that coin toss. They pulled out every trick in the book for that game and i see no way they can rev that emotional roller coaster up again and enough to beat a physical Steelers team at home and with revenge on their mind. Sanchez didn't see a pass rush last week or a team that could stop the run. He will get a big dose of both on Sunday. The Steelers are a much better defense than N.E. and they have something the Patriots didn't have, playmakers on that side of the ball. I think the Steelers will run the ball more than N.E. did and that will open up the downfield pass that Ben loves to throw. As far as the total goes, Pittsburgh games have gone Over in 19 of their last 21 games in January. They have also gone Over the total in 14 of their last 16 Playoff games and Over in 10 of their last 11 Playoff games at Home. Even the Jets have gone Over in 8 of their last 10 January games and Over in 10 of their last 11 on the Road overall. I like Pittsburgh 27-17
GOOD LUCK!
