I think the most attractive matchup for the nfl would be jets/packers. we'll see what happens



2 small "market" teams. GB in terms of home town fans, (although they have a broad following of fans over-all) and Jets in terms of actual # of fans.

Steelers vs Bears might be the best for the NFL.

Steelers have millions of fans spread out everywhere in the world
 
steelers have more fans because of all the bandwagonners from the '70s, but they've been in the SB twice recently

to the non-jet and steeler fans, the jets are a more compelling matchup

I think it's pretty clear that the jets being in it would be more interesting

aside from their big personalities, they haven't been in the SB since Joe Namath, and it gets the tristate area involved.
 
good points, you might be right Enigma.

but being a huge Steeler fan, and a traveler I'm way skewed by the amount of Steeler nation i've seen, even in foreign countries. I think the Cowboys are the most public team, but I think Steelers fans are the most authentic and diehard and they easily have the most female football fans of any team i've ever seen.
 
unless Cutler has somthing broken or torn, there is no reason for him not to be playing now.

this is for the superbowl. Chicago meatpackers report to work for years, with worse injuries than cutler prob has now
