It’s a Super Bowl rematch, but unfortunately the results will be similar.
The Steelers really haven’t recovered from their 31-25 loss to finish the 2010 season, while the Packers have strung together some good years despite not reaching the Super Bowl again.
There’s too much of a disparity in the overall talent level between the two teams and Aaron Rodgers will have a field day against a Steelers defense that will likely be wearing down by this point.
I like the Packers big at home.
Prediction: Packers 31-20 (8-7)
