Went with Packers - Steelers because they were my picks in the post season contest.
For the fans and ratings, it will probably be the best match up as well. The media has been building a Brady vs Rodgers frenzy. That transfers best to Ben>>>>>>>>Sanchez. You get two teams with great history and some terrific new story lines. Rodgers in particular. Fans are going to be very high on the Pack to knock the vaunted Steelers down a peg. It would be a damn good show.

But you listed the NFC teams before the AFC teams. Is that a bias?I did the choices alphabetically so there's no accusations of bias on my part.

Steelers / Bears because I don't want any part of that passing game and I think Cutler would give us three picks

Didn't the Dr. Seus ABC book tell you that "I'm watching HGTV" is clearly out of alphabetical order in this sequence? This poll is seething with bias.But you listed the NFC teams before the AFC teams. Is that a bias?I did the choices alphabetically so there's no accusations of bias on my part.

America wants Steelers/Packers, there's no doubt about it. I bet if you polled 100,000 fans randomly, you'd have as many picking Steelers/Packers as the other three matchups combined, or at least reasonably close to it.

I think it'll be really close between Pitt/GB and Pitt/Chi for best ratings and sales....the Bears have been to the SB more recently, but the Pack won it more recently...either way it will be gigantic.With Pitt, GB, and Chi...the NFL has 3 of it's top 4 markets still in play (Dallas being the other).

I'm American and I'm not interested in seeing the Steelers in the Super Bowl.

If watching a team with a great defense and Ben shedding would be sacks to make a unique play doesn't interest you, you belong in the watching HGTV category.

Just funny to see "Green Bay" and "top market" in the same sentence (not that you're wrong)

You must be out of high school today for MLK day. The Steelers have had their glory in the Super Bowl recently, so I'd like to see the Jets represent the AFC instead. The Super Bowl is going to get high ratings regardless if the Steelers are in it or not.

Agreed about the ratings, but even if Seattle was playing the Chiefs I'd be interested in watching.

I'm sure many others agree. That's why I said close to half of people would choose that matchup as opposed to saying everyone would.

I'm watching the Super Bowl no matter who is playing in it, but I am least interested in seeing the Steelers represent the AFC, because they have been to the Super Bowl twice in the last few years, and won it just two Super Bowls ago.

Btw, what's wrong with HGTV? Big fan of that station.

That's 2 votes for HGTV if the Steelers make it. Um...not that there's anything wrong with HGTV mind. You know...
I am dying to see Packers vs. Steelers. It will be the first Super Bowl in a long time where I've actually liked both teams in the game. 2 great young QBs, 2 solid defences, 2 great fan bases, 2 teams with great history. It would make for one of the most enjoyable Super Bowl match-ups in years.

Your America is different than minePackers/Jets!

Bears/whoever. Cutler shredded both D's last time he played them, and he's undefeated in his career against both of them, so there's no real preference here.

Bears/Steelers would be fun because both QB's are douchebags and the network would have to hyp eother players on the team for the fluff pieces leading up to the Super Bowl.

Rooting for the Bears just because they were such a lame duck team this offseason - wasn't all the talk about how this was Lovie's last year, no coach wanted to go there, etc... now they have a shot at the SuperBowl - and the Bears are, like it or not, playing great football.
Kinda rooting against the Steelers - same ol, same ol. So I went Bears/Jets, although I really could care less about the Jets

Colts-Saints down?ETA: And now that I think about it Cards - Steelers and Pats - Giants were pretty entertaining games. The NFL has been on a roll.

Sorry for the confusion but I was speaking purely from a personal standpoint. I wasn't that excited about Colts-Saints mainly because I'm not a big Saints fan and was hoping to see Minnesota there instead. Also, I didn't want to see the Cards win because I didn't think they should have been there, and I just really hate the Patriots. All of them were great games but there was always one team involved where I would have been quite disappointed if they won. If it's Packers - Steelers I'll just enjoy a great football game and not stress about the result.
