Predictions of Creative Misfortune - Conference Championship Games

The 6th seeds are anything but the worst teams in the postseason. Will the Jets and Packers have what it takes to win three straight on the road? The championship game picks below will tell you which systems believe they can punch their tickets to Super Bowl XLV.

Conference Championship Playoff Predictions:

AFC #6 New York Jets at AFC #2 Pittsburgh Steelers
     Creative Misfortune's Pick: Pittsburgh, 23-14. When two strong defenses collide, the team with the best grind-it-out-and-win-ugly offense will escape with the victory. Between these two teams, I have to give Pittsburgh's offense the edge.
     Scottie V's Pick: Pittsburgh, 30-16. The Curtain forces some timely turnovers to bring the 6-seed Jets back down to earth.
     Vegas Lines Pick: Pittsburgh, 23-17. Pittsburgh by 3.5, Over/Under 38.5.
     Accuscore Pick: Pittsburgh, 23-14. Pittsburgh 63% win confidence
     What If Sports Pick: Pittsburgh, 21-10. Pittsburgh won all 5 simulations.
     Best Record Wins Pick: Pittsburgh, 20-17. Pittsburgh better at 13-4.
     Home Team Wins Pick: Pittsburgh, 20-17

NFC #6 Green Bay Packers at NFC #2 Chicago Bears
     Creative Misfortune's Pick: Green Bay, 34-24. The Packers have shown they can thrive in fight-or-flight, survival mode. The low-scoring, 10-3 battle of week 17 will not be repeated with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
     Scottie V's Pick: Green Bay, 27-17. Green Bay keeps their playoff momentum going and are unfazed by the Chi-town weather.
     Vegas Lines Pick: Green Bay, 24-20. Green Bay by 3.5, Over/Under 43.5.
     Accuscore Pick: Green Bay, 23-16. Green Bay 61% win confidence
     What If Sports Pick: Chicago, 16-14. Chicago won 3 of 5 simulations.
     Best Record Wins Pick: Chicago, 20-17. Chicago better at 12-5.
     Home Team Wins Pick: Chicago, 20-17
