In the run up the Super Bowl betting there has been much attention focused on the two franchises’ starting QBs. And rightly so.
The Green Packers have the best QB in the NFL postseason this year in Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers phenomenal season was a bit overshadowed by Tom Brady’s mind-blowing stats (36 TDs and only 4 INTs) but with Brady’s Patriots sent home in the divisional round of the playoffs, Rodgers (3,922 yards, 28 TDs, 11 INTs) is the undisputed best QB left.
But Pittsburgh’s Ben Roethlisberger is a 2-time Lombardi Trophy winner and the most dangerous big play QB in the game. You can be sure that both of these QBs will play a big part in their team’s success this weekend. Read more…
When it comes to setting odds NFL experts are apparently stumped as the the AFC Championship approaches. The betting line on this conference title game, as it is for the NFC Championship game as well is basically a wash.

2010 was not a good year for the Browns (5-10) but it wasn’t all bad and win over the Steelers might just be a big enough event to make this season a success –at least by Cleveland’s lowly standards.
The Steelers (11-4) are in the driver seat and control their own playoff destiny but this team is nowhere good enough to take the Browns for granted. Read more…
In what may just be the first time in the history of the NFL betting odds action the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Seattle Seahawks are going head to head in a matchup with major playoff implications for both teams.
The Bucs (8-6) have been one of the most surprising teams in the NFL this year. Coming off a 3 win season this team has already nearly tripled its win total from 2009 and if it wins its last two remaining games this season has a great chance of grabbing the last NFC Wild Card spot in the playoffs.
