Steelers vs Jets. I don't like either team very much personality wise. Play wise, there's plenty to admire in the Pittsburgh team, and I did predict the JETS to win it all, so I think I'd prefer a Jets win. The line is currently -3 Steelers which is close enough for me to leave along right now.
Packers vs. Bears is a great NFC North match up. The Seahawks completely failed to defend a Martz offence correctly last Sunday, something that the Packers won't do. On the other hand, the Packers offence can't surely rely on their rookie RB -again- this week, and the Bears should be able to create plenty of pressure.
I'm expecting a low scoring game, with the occasional big play into broken coverage. I love the +3.5 Bears, and will be taking it when I get a chance. I'd bet the Under 44 as well, but I don't do under/overs. It ends in tears.

My picks were Steelers - 2.5, Bears + 3.5, Under in Bears/Packers.
Looks like we're on the same page.

Steelers are out to -3.5 (-115) on BoDog now.
I've booked Bears +3.5 (-105) on that site.
