    Once again, I'm with you. I see a game like the last one -- lots of D, little scoring. And I love the Bears defense, especially at home if the weather's bad.

    I don't like where this is headed. Packers 59-5.

    Didn't everybody like the Steelers-Ravens under as well?

    My crackpot (and fanboi) theory:

    Hasselbeck played one of the best games of his career to beat the Saints. His next game? Nothing until garbage time.

    Rodgers played one of the best games of his career to beat the Falcons ...

    I'll go with 17-13, Bears.

    Are you really comparing Hasselbeck's talent to Rodgers'?

    It's more like hoping, spnited.

    And I seriously believe (hope) Rodgers can't be that sharp two games in a row.

    Especially if the game is moved from Arena Football-like conditions to an outdoor venue.

    Tri: But the Packers are still in the playoffs. I hope I'm wrong - I would love to see the Bears win.

    Ravens-Steelers indicates the problem with betting the under when two teams have good defenses -- good defenses tend to generate turnovers and easy scores.

    In two full football games against the Bears defense, Rodgers this season has led his offense to 13.5 points total and has as many touchdowns as interceptions.

    He's great, but it's not like they are incapable of slowing him down.

    Bears MUST play better pass defense than they did against the Seahawks, where they were good but not great, or Rodgers will vivisect them.

    Seattle receivers were just awful in that game.
