Roethlisberger one of the top 5 QBs of all time? Nuts.
I realize it is tough to compare eras, but Sammie Baugh, Ottie Graham, Johnny Unitas, Bart Starr, Roger Staubach, Joe Montana, John Elway, Brett Favre, Dan Marino, Steve Young, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees and probably a half dozen or more QBs I have forgotten all say "hi."

1. In 19 games this year ( 11 of which were on the road) the Packers have never lost by more than 4 points. There is no reason to think that all of a sudden they will lose by 13.
2. Rodgers/ Jennings/Driver et al indoors with perfect conditions being held to 14 points? No way!
3. That being said, I think its pick em. The Steelers have done it before and McCarthy's record in close games is putrid. But if the Steelers win, it will be close. (A field goal). I think the starting point for analysis has to be last years 37-36 Steeler win in Pittsburgh where both quarterbacks were unstoppable. Green Bays defense is far superior to what it was then but they are missing Finlay so the offense is not as good . I don't think either team will do much on the ground and the key will be what the Packers can do with Roethlisberger.
Gun to my head: I think Rodgers has a big game as he usually does indoors. I don't think Capers will be embarrassed by Ben R two years in a row. Green Bay 31 Steelers 24. And despite two defensive coordinators who have invented modern NFL defense, take the over.

The Steelers have officially ruled Pouncey out for this Sunday.

I like the Packers. I can thank Bret Favre for that.
Sadly, my pick is the Steelers.
They've been there, they've done it, and it seems like when they get there, they win it.
I would rather vomit than see that horrible human being in Ben, win a 3rd.
So much for his 75% chance of playing pronouncement earlier in the week
My nephew has enlisted in the Navy. He's going to be sworn in on the field at the Super Bowl. And he gets to sit on the sidelines for the entire game. Pretty cool. He leaves for boot camp next week.

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou
Ye be warned, NSFW strong language. Although it was pretty funny.

True that. Also, plenty of head-nodding haterade moments in there for this Bengals fan.
All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.
GB 33 PIT 24
Packers win 31-25
3 Steeler turnovers (2 Roethlisberger INTs and 1 Mendenhall fumble) led to 21 of the Packer 31 points
The better team, The Packers, survived despite losing their best defensive backs late in the first half allowing the Steelers to start passing again, because they were getting shut down until those two went out.
Congrats to the new dynasty in football and Aaron Rodgers.
Steelers are done. Put a fork in them. Their dynasty is over.
