It's half time for the Chicago-Green Bay playoff game and there's really no need to play the remaining 30 minutes. Lovie (is that really his name?) Smith decided to go all out and put the game in the hands of Jay Cutler. While I admit he's done a great job of handling the talented and volatile quarterback, he made a major mistake by not establishing a running game in the first half. It's all over now. Green Bay's offense is much too precise for the Bears defense to control and having a 14 point cushion has placed Green Bay squarely in control. Game over.
The Jets will be beating the Steelers later and the Super Bowl will be set for a major blow out as the Packers will romp. Even if the referees can't bring the game home for New York whoever the Packers get to play will be humiliated. It's a lousy year for the NFL as the “fix” is clearly in during the long playoff stretch. The New York Jets in the Super Bowl? Really?
With all eyes on the Big Game it'll come down to talent and ability and it'll be an easy win for the Packers.
I'm looking forward to see how blatantly the officials try and aid New York and whether or not with their help the Jets can put up a decent (believable) effort. In any case, the victor in that debacle will be mauled in the biggest game of the year.
