It will be an interesting one.
For the record, i've got my money on the tie.
The tie, in these betting terms, would be within 3 points.
meaning, i lose, if either of the teams win by 4 points or more.
I win if its within 3 points, or if it goes to OT.
The game!
There are 2 main aspects of the game.
Steelers attack vs Packers defense
&
Packers attack vs Steelers defense.
The thing that jumps out the most with the Steelers attack against the packers defense, is Mendenhall.
The Packers haven't been able to stop the rush all year...they are well under par.
Another thing to look at, is the Packers pass rush, which will most likely fail against Ben, who will be completing some 3rd and longs while they're trying to get him ....despite the steelers weak weak OL.
Guess who else has a weak OL ....the Packers...only difference here, is that they're up against the Steelers D!
The Steelers have been weak against the pass, which makes it look like Aaron Rogers is gonna have a huge spotlight on him in this game.
I'm 100% sure that the Steelers D will get to him, however, i'm almost certain that when they don't get to him, he will be throwing it down the field.
I think the game will be close, which is why i bet on the tie.
I give the edge to the Steelers, who are BY FAR superior on the defensive side.
