It does seem rare! at least one of the top seeds make the superbowl but both of them not even making the NFC and AFC title games would have to be un heard of.

Packers in a very tight one next week but wouldnt be suprised is da bears get up


I dont know why youd be surprised they have beaten them at home already and had the best record in the div for a reason 8)

Didnt mean it like that. I think both sides match up well and throw in the rivalry and its too close to call. My gut feeling says the pack but can also see it going the other way. As a neutral just want a cracker

Some cracking games in the playoffs so far.
Aaron Rodgers is on fire for GB, he is going to be very hard to stop for the bears.
The jets love talking trash and they backed it up by slamming brady & the pats out of the playoffs.
Steelers - Ravens was a great game with loads of turnovers and the ravens doing a massive choke in the 2nd half.
For me Packers-Steelers SB I would like to see, one of the best offences against the best defence

This time we're set and our defense is playing well.

Key is to stop Welker.

No way in hell the Pats put up 30+ points this time.

Jets 24 Pats 20


I was pretty close :)

This time around we need to keep Big Ben in the pocket, but still knock him around like we did Brady. The Steelers O'line is very weak and hopefully we can abuse that.

Steelers defense is great, just like ours. I see a lot of run and small passing from the Jets offense.

Jets 20, Steelers 17.

Looking at the runs I would love to see a Jets vs. Packers Superbowl. The Bears and the Packers will be a tough game but I am hoping for a Packers win. The Packers O-line is firing and the D is shutting teams down. The Bears are even on both sides of the ball like the Packers.

Packers / Jets for me. I think after Sunday it shows the Jets defense is better than the steelers. We destroyed Brady. He admitted he didn't know what we were doing.

Yeah i like this match up too.

Full credit to the Jets, Very good victory one they didn't think they could win. Manning out one week then Brady. Magnificent performance really.

Looking forward to next week.

It does seem rare! at least one of the top seeds make the superbowl but both of them not even making the NFC and AFC title games would have to be un heard of.


Last time this happened was 2008

Tennesse & NY Giants both No1 seeds but lost in Divisional Round

Baltimore 13 Tenn 10
Philadelphia 23 NY Giants 11

Super Bowl between Pittsburgh & Arizona

Pittsburgh No2 seed
Arizona No4 seed

Last time before that was 1979 both San Diego & Dallas were No1 seeds but failed to make it to the thier respective conference games.

Houston 17 San Diego 14
LA Rams 21 Dallas 19

Super Bowl between Pittsburgh & LA Rams

Pittsburgh No2 seed
LA Rams No3 seed

On a side note TV Star Fred Dryer best known as Det Rick Hunter from the hit show Hunter 1984 - 91 played for the LA Rams. He was drafted by the NY Giants.He played for the Giants from 1969 - 71 then traded to the NE Patriots then on draft day 1972 was traded to the LA Rams played in 176 games starting 166 recording 104 sacks and the only player to score 2 safetys in one game he retired at the end of the 1981 season

Let that be a lesson to you Sturt. You don't beat Glenelg 3 times in a row in Grand Finals and get away with it.

Jets v Bears I reckon

Jets haven't been to the SuperBowl since their upset win in Superbowl III - back in 1968

Yeah the Newton thing can make a mockery of it all. Much like Bush from his Heisman/Champ year

Look at when USC won in 2004 Auburn was number 2 and they will declare no title awarded and use an *.


So TCU won't be champions then :D

Those Horny Frogs got lucky playing a weakened conference does help make a 13-0 season but to be honest good on them. I just don't rate them for this.

Steelers v Packers Bowl.

Will probably go for the Packers out of the 4 teams left (support wise).
