Bet the over.
No guarantees -- my opinion only.
The Pack is back.
Cheeseheads of the world unite.
Take the pack and take the under. Just my take
I’ll go Steelers and under. As I see it, the smartest bets are either that or Packers/over. Steelers win a low-scoring game, Packers win if its a shootout.
I look for the Steelers to lean on Mendenhall to grind the game down and control possession. Green Bay offense will have at most 6 possessions. Big Ben will only throw when they need a first down or when Green Bay loads the box. That would be my game plan were I Mike Tomlin. As a fan, I would like to see Green Bay win.
Steelers and under for the money though.
In the last three superbowls the underdog covered the point spreads. Saints were underdogs. The Cardinals lost, but covered. The Patriots did not cover the point spread by one point, AND they missed an extra point kick. I bet on the Steelers plus 2.5. The Pack was hot two weeks ago.
Packers and the over.
Aaron Rodgers has the Mojo this year.
His mobility and creativeness will be the key
I’m with you. Pitt and the points is a no-brainer, and the field in Dallas is fast. I think these teams may ring it up.
Ben Lurkin: Take the Steelers and the points. Bet the over.
Bullish: Take the pack and take the under.
kevkrom: Ill go Steelers and under.
EyeGuy: Packers and the over.
ALL good advice, I’m sure. Clearly football betting is a science and not an art. ;-)
Maybe I’ll sit this one out.

As for me... I'll be sitting in my warm living room in front of my 1080p 240 Hz tv with a fire in the fire place, multiple cold brews and pizza :-)
My prediction: Pac by 5.
Take the Pack to cover and the under. I figure about 20-13. Top two defenses in scoring allowed. 10th and 12th in offensive points scored. The Pack soft side is run defense at about 18th, but Pittsburgh is only 11th in run offense. Missing their center, and the Packers healthier than they have been all season with a dynamic running back taking the reigns - I see a grind it out game with a couple big plays making the difference. I give the nod to Green Bay on big plays if their special teams don’t let them down.
The current Steelers team has 28 Super Bowl rings amongst them
The current Packers team has ? Super Bowl rings?
