NFC and AFC Champions
By: Savita

Pittsburgh Steelers
Green Bay Packers















On Sunday Jan 23rd, 2011, at 3:15pm PST, the NFC champions were declared. It was….. Green Bay Packers! Green Bay Packers competed against Chicago Bears in Chicago. Packers and Bears have the most rivalry in NFL games. The score was 21 to 14 with Green Bay leading with 14-0 in the first half of the game. The Green Bay Packers will move on to the Super Bowl.

On the same day, around 6:30pm PST, the AFC champion was decided in Heinz Field, Pittsburgh. Guess what? Pittsburgh Steelers won the AFC Championship! The score was 24 to 19 against New York Jets. Jets won many good teams this season during the play offs. For example, they beat Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots but on Sunday, Steelers won Jets big time. In the first half, the Steelers where leading with a score of 24-3. It was a spectacular lead. Throughout this season Jets were loud and noisy along with their coach Rex Ryan until they met someone bigger than them - Big Ben. Pittsburg Steelers will play against Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl. Who do you think will win the Super bowl XLV?
Why? Can you believe the Packers are favored to win???!!! If you have a favorite team in football what team is it and why?

I think that the STEELERS will win because of their explosive first half offence and defence.
My favorite team in the whole NFL is the PATRIOTS becase they are the best team in the NFL. They were the first team I was introduced to and the first Super Bowl I watched was when the PATRIOTS won. Last their Quarterback is Tom Brady had only four interceptions the whole season and he went to the same school as my dad. He went at the same time too.

My favorite football team are the Colts. The reason I chose to enjoy watching this team is because they have good players. My favorite player on the team is Peyton Manning. He had the most sucsess as a freshman and junior in collage. He know the game well beacause he had an older brother who was very good at football, and a father who was very famous when he played. Also, Peyton Manning is a quarterback and that's my favorite position. Peyton Manning also has a younger brother, Eli Manning who is the quarterback for the New York Giants. In conclusion, you can see the Colts are a very big part of my interest.

I think the Steelers are going to win. My dad thinks the Packers are going to win and we will get extra homework. He says that the Packers are really good this season. I don't really have a favorite team and my extended family lives in India and all over U.S.A and they like many different teams.

I don't know if the Packers or the Steelers are better but I definetly want the Steelers to win since Ms.McPheeters will be happy so she won't give us any home work. I also like the name of the Steelers Quaterback,Ben Roethlisberger. My last reason is that the Packers are in Winsconsin (never been there) and the Steelers
are in Pensylvania(I have been there). My favorite NFL team is the Steelers, of course, since I know the most about them.

I think that the Steerlers might win. I think that because the Packers got 7 touchdowns in the first half and the Steelers got 17 touchdowns. My favorite team is the Steelers.

I think the Steelers are going to win the Super Bowl because they have more experienced players like Ben Rothlesburger and Hines Ward. My favorite football teams are the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts.
