As soon as lord football begins, it ends...every other sport seems to drag on forever, football on the other hand, different story. It's like hyperdrive, as soon as you engage it...you've reached your destination.

The home team covered 5 times, failed 5 times
The favorite covered 4 times, failed 6 times
The over happened 9 times and never stayed under
The conference championship outcome in the afc games seem to make perfect sense and a natural progression, the nfc seems to be up for grabs and war is on(as far as the scoreboard goes)
Targeted trends...
Pittsburgh at New England(6) 50...
Since 90 New England was in the ccg 11 times, only 1 of their last 6 appearances exceeded 43pts and when playing at home averaged a total of 38pts being scored between both teams. New England is successful in big games because they realize defense wins championships even though one of the 2 times they faced pitt there was 68pts scored, it happened in pitt.
There are long running proven trends going both ways in this game and I like it, whenever the path lines up perfectly you can expect to be walking into an ambush.
**since 83 cc teams are 12-2 su and 11-3 ats if they were in last years cc game, if that team lost last years cc game on the road (as ne did), they're 7-2 ats in this years game.
**since 91 cc teams who scored a total of more than 10pts in their divisional round win than their opponent had scored in their divisional round win have gone 4-18 ats...New England scored 34 while pitt scored only 18,(as a matter of fact)...
**since 99 the lower scoring su winner of the divisional round is 20-9 ats in the cc game, and if that same team happens to be the underdog they're 15-4 ats.
Green Bay at Atlanta(5) 60.5...
Scoring machines are always the easiest and most attractive choice in big games, they make you feel safe especially when getting points.(that's why the buffalo bills of the 90's were always loaded up on), who can stop them.
high scoring red hot teams on a roll, peaking at just the right time are only a good bet if everyone isn't pointing it out to ya.
**since 83 cc teams who scored 30+pts in the divisional game, won by 21pts or less and are on the road are 3-9 ats and this trend can go all the way back to 4-18 su and 5-16-1 ats over the last 35+years.
The more scoring a team does getting to the ultimate destination, the less times they get there..
**cc teams who scored 30+pts in the wildcard round, then scored 27+pts in the divisional round are 2-6 su and ats s 78, as a matter of fact....
**since 83 cc teams who scored 70+pts combined in their last 2 consecutive playoff games are 4-10 su and ats
There seems to be nobody putting Matty ice in the conversation with the big 3 quarterbacks still standing, and I personally hate seeing Pittsburgh win anything simply because rothlisberger's head just doesn't seem like they can get enough of it into his helmet. Ha....so....
Atlanta and over
Pittsburgh and under
