2010 NFL Conference Championship Recaps
Packers 21, Bears 14
Well, not really. The Bears did a great job on Rodgers for the rest of the game. The Packers scored just one more offensive touchdown, and the Bears forced Rodgers into a red zone interception. Chicago had a chance to win at the end, but Mike Martz's moronic play-calling thwarted that effort.
Jay Cutler was anemic in the first half, going 6-of-14 for 80 yards and an interception, as he constantly overthrew his receivers. Cutler suffered some sort of mysterious knee injury in the second quarter and took himself out of the contest. Despite Brian Urlacher calling him the P-word on the sidelines, Cutler refused to go back into the game.
I'll have more on this in the power rankings, but Cutler is a major wuss. Philip Rivers played in the AFC Championship on a torn ACL a few years ago, yet Cutler couldn't go because of a little boo-boo? Are you kidding me?
As this happened, forum member Ryguy commented, "Can't wait to hear what Cutler's injury is."
Hyperborean quickly answered, "Sand in vagina."
Cal Hanie time!!!!
Good. They are putting Hanie in. They have a chance.
Thank god, apparently Hanie is going in.
Caleb Hanie!!!
Hanie didn't disappoint, going 13-of-20 for 153 yards, one touchdown and two picks. He led two scoring drives and looked infinitely superior to Cutler. As mentioned, however, Martz screwed Hanie out of a legendary comeback with an awful end-around on a key third down on the final drive.
On defense, B.J. Raji had a pick-six. Sam Shields collected the other two Packer interceptions to go along with a sack and forced fumble.
As for the Bears, Matt Forte had to do it all by himself for three quarters; he rushed for 70 yards on 17 attempts and caught 10 balls for 90 receiving yards.
Steelers 24, Jets 19
I don't know what happened to New York's stop unit in the first half. Even though the defense held Ben Roethlisberger to 7-of-14 passing for 96 yards and an interception prior to intermission, it could not stop the Steelers. Rashard Mendenhall trampled the Jets for 121 yards on 27 carries. Isaac Redman, meanwhile, chipped in with 27 yards on just four attempts.
Rex Ryan's defense showed no interest in tackling. It was pathetic. The Steelers actually had more points (24) by halftime than New York ran plays (22).
I really have no idea why LaDainian Tomlinson got the ball on the most important play of the game. On 4th-and-goal at the 1-yard line of a 24-10 contest, Schottenheimer called for a Tomlinson carry. Tomlinson was predictably stuffed at the goal line. He gained just 16 yards on nine carries, while Shonn Greene generated 52 yards on the same amount of attempts. It's almost as if Todd Haley kidnapped Schottenheimer and took over the play-calling.
The Jets simply didn't have an answer for Roethlisberger's scrambling. Big Ben's passing numbers were hardly impressive (10-of-19, 133 yards, 2 INTs), but he evaded enough pass rushers in the backfield and picked up a few key first downs (and a touchdown) to keep the ball out of Sanchez's hands.
For more, check out my updated 2010 NFL Power Rankings, which will be posted Monday morning.

@walt is way past pathetic
What are you talking about? He took Broncos PK +100 for 2 units and won. I see no dolphins multi unit bet this week. If you are still talking about last week I dont know why, it was last week, and there is still a criminal investigation into what Revis got away with on Marshall.

Thoughts on Turner ?
You had him ranked outside the top 15 for this season, so I never drafted him. I have Chris Johnson and got an offer to trade him for Turner, do I make this deal ? Turner despite the big day is a huge inj concern this season and seems slow at times. CJ2K has been less then average but has a somewhat easy schedule.

@mitch. Last I read in the rule book is throwing a pass out of bounds beyond the Line of Scrimmage is not intentional grounding. Learn the rules you pathetic excuse for a fan. ANY Helmet to Helmet contact is a Personal Foul and has to be called. Yes I saw the play numerous times and Yes there was Helmet to Helmet contact. You are the Moron....
Walt is way past pathetic with his picks!

@ Ruiner
With 5 games done and a total of 354 yds and one TD, we need to calm down there jr. He's still nothing more than a WR 3.

Colt McCoy looked terrible yesterday. He seems to be getting worse. I think it's time to start thinking about drafting a QB with one of our two first rounders.
