The dust has settled from last Sunday night's Super Bowl 45 and the fans have all gone back to Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. But, the score stands. Packers 31 - Steelers 25. I thought it was a good game and for the most part pretty well played. I think if it got played again 100 times, the Packers would still win the majority of the games. Bottom line is Aaron Rodgers (who won the MVP) did turn out to be a better quarterback than Ben Rothlisberger even if his receivers (ie; Jordy) decided to drop a bunch of passes they should have caught.
My forecast had been the Pack by two. Well, I missed it by four points, but it doesn't matter. The NFC Green Bay Packers are the 2011 Super Bowl Champions. Congratulations Packers!

Packers 23 - Steelers 21
Nine days ago I told you the Green Bay Packers would defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers to win Super Bowl 45. The Pack will win by two. Why you want to know? I see both teams as very similar. Both have better than average defenses and each has a good offense. But, the difference at this time is Aaron Rodgers is a better quarterback than Ben Roethlisberger. Check out the stats for this season.
It should be a great game. As far as the prediction, this one is as worthless as every so called experts out there. So, here you go. Rodgers marches the Pack down the field in the final minute and they come from behind to win it 23-21.

The Stage is Set
Well after 17 weeks of the regular season and three weeks of playoffs the NFL has the two teams that will play in Super Bowl 45.
The Green Bay Packers jumped on top early and held on to beat a feisty Chicago Bears team 21-14. I have to wonder what would have happened had Bears QB Jay Cutler not been injured just prior to halftime. Also, Aaron Rodgers looked like a deer in the headlights in the second half after the Bears upped the pressure on him. The Pack is fortunate to have held on to win.
Congratulations to the Pittsburgh Steelers on going to their 8th Super Bowl. The Steelers jumped on top of the New York Jets early and got up 24-0 before New York scored just before half. The Jets came back in the second half and made it close but no cigar. The final was Steelers 24-19.
If I had to speculate at this point I would predict the Packers by two over the Steelers in the Super Bowl. But, that's two weeks away. Stay tuned for the reasons why I feel Green Bay will win that game.
