Packers are favorites all around

America remains anxious for the biggest game of the year as we make our final picks on Super Bowl eve.

It has been two weeks since the NFL completed its conference championship games and my New York Jets did not advance to the big game.

In the American Football Conference championship game the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Jets, 24-19, to make their eighth appearance in the Super Bowl.

In the game the Jets were unable to overcome a 24-0 Steelers lead and the team was unable to complete a one yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.

In the National Football Conference championship game the Green Bay Packers defeated their arch rival, the Chicago Bears, to advance to the Super Bowl.

The Packers were unstoppable with quarterback, Aaron Rodgers' passing in the first half. The Bears lost their quarterback, Jay Cutler, in the end of the second quarter with a knee injury.

A Steelers and Packers victory now brings us to a huge Super Bowl showdown in Arlington, Texas at Cowboys Stadium.

The two teams are outstanding on the defensive end and they both have two of the greatest quarterbacks in the league today.

On the Steelers side we have Ben Roethlisberger, who is a tough quarterback that refuses to go down and is great at dodging tackles.

Roethlisberger has the ability to throw the ball down the field and run the ball down the field by himself. He already has two Super Bowl rings so it will be hard for the Packers defense to keep him under control.

On the Packers side we have Aaron Rodgers, who is becoming his own star in Green Bay and making a name for himself alongside the great Bret Favre.

Rodgers has the ability to throw the ball down the field and run the ball for himself. Rodgers will be focus on winning his first title as the leader of the Packers, the team he had to sit and watch Favre lead for several years until the Packers finally picked Rodgers over Favre.

In the championship round, I went one-for-two in my picks.

For the Super Bowl I have the Packers defeating the Steelers. The Packers were favorites to win the Super Bowl before the season started and the team was able to overcome its injuries throughout the regular season. Since then the Packers are unstoppable and on a big winning streak heading into the Super Bowl.

Go Pack Go!
